CHILE IN THE NEXT WORLD CUP SOUTH AFRICA 2010

Our national team will attend to the World Cup South Africa 2010, was the first time that we win in official games played in the country of coffee (Colombia) against their football selection. With this victory Chile classified to the SOUTH AFRICA 2010 (the most important sport competition in the world).

This event is very important for Chile and for our continent, because we have proven to be good in this sport, everywhere people talk about it, is the topic required in every meeting. Also this team generates happyness and pride, because this players are people like us, they are a true reflection.

In this process is very important the technical, Marcelo Bielsa, he made a revolution in our soccer, he always tries to attack, passing above rivals, makes many goals, without speculate. Also he introduce discipline in a team which was characterized by acts of indiscipline and he teachs the value of hard work. Everyone is believing again in the national team.

I like the offensive players, they need to be focus and play well during all the match, one mistake and the work of all team can collapse, they can appear ten minutes, make a gol and be heroes. Some players that I like are: ALEXIS SANCHEZ, HUMBERTO SUAZO, and JORGE VALDIVIA, they are noted for being fast and effective.

I don't want to go to Southafrica because I prefer doing a barbeque in my home with my homies and my family. Thats the magic of watching the chilean matches.

CHALLENGES IN YOUR DISCIPLINE

Write about important challenges your discipline is currently facing, connected to each of the following areas:- Technology- Social Matters- Education- Define the challenges- Say how you think they should be resolved in each case- Mention the critical issues involved in each area- Word Count: 350

Mainly anthropology has little interest in using new technologies, especially in our university, teachers are afraid to incorporate new methods to teach students, this big problem is bad for them and for us, because they keep using the same tools they used twenty years ago, they stay in the past and blame us for them as well.

Must be able to require that new techniques are used to analyze society

ESSAY (1. Your experience learning English at the university / A general reflection)

We must recognize that learning English is an essential tool to face the world today, especially because we need a language to communicate and everything shows is English the most used language by people to discuss about business, make any official publication of any discipline, in our case anthropology, to mention only two of the most relevant. All this is due to globalization, which has as one of its objectives give us the possibility to communicate without problems in seconds and easily. In the university environment is essential manage English, specifically because the papers and researchs of the main universities are in English, and not understand this language can become a big problem.

In the Faculty of Social Sciences at the Universidad de Chile are concerned to give importance to this essential point in the training of professionals. Disciplines such as anthropology, sociology and psychology have four English courses, from basics to advanced. The methodology used to train the students is pretty good whenever students want to learn and fulfill their duties.

Depends exclusively on the student if he wants to learn or unwilling to accept what they are teaching, because English teachers are usually willing to correct your mistakes and also encourage students to have skills in English, to speak, read and understand the language.

The purpose of careers in social sciences is to train professionals who are able to interpret and interact with people who speak the English language, this will give many opportunities in working life and professional, is for this that students are encourage to take advantage of English classes and depending on this, can apply for scholarships in universities abroad, but first must pass the English test, TOEFL.

I personally think that studying English has helped me to relate with people from United States and other countries, also helped me to express myself and they understand me, and I have had access to documents and publications of prestigious universities like Oxford’s and Harvard’s, among others who study topics that are of importance to me, like a indigenous communities and violence. Study English is essential in the twenty-first century depends solely on the desire to take and you want professional expectations for the future.

Everyone must decide what to do with their life and the way to contributes to the society, I personally think that if you are good with English will have many opportunities to meet people, have a better job and you may publish academic papers for everyone to read them.
