Calculus


Honestly, of all the subjects we have this semester, the one I like the most is calculus. I am sure that most would not say that this is the subject they most enjoy studying, at first I did not like it either, but eventually I managed to love it, surely it is because it was in the first subject that I really felt that with each exercise I was moving forward a bit (and for that small feeling of happiness to finish an exercise and that is correct). Also that this subject serves as an introduction to learn to form more complex mathematical models (using derivatives and integrals, geometrical series or vectorial analysis for example) while forming a more methodical thought (although others find it boring).
Until now and almost at the end of the semester we have seen functions and limits and how they are graphed in the Cartesian plane, and in classes we are always passing new content while trying to relate what is seen with the past subjects, although frankly I do not pay much attention, since I prefer to study on my own.

The best holidays I've had

 Frankly I have not had a very remarkable holidays, but the one I like to remember is when with my family (my parents, brother and sister) toured the north of Chile. It was in the summer of 2008, we start in Santiago and move on until we reach Arica. We passed through the big cities of the regions and tourist places of each place, like Humberstone, La mano del desierto, Valle de la Luna, etc. Somedays it was just a car ride, although with stops in a row, because my brothers and I were very small and we couldn't stay calm for long time and other days we would dedicate ourselves to touring the places, eating local food, taking many photos, going to the beaches, taking walks in the squares and parks. The trip lasted two weeks (it was all my father's vacation) and those are the most beautiful memories of my childhood, those always make me smile, especially for remembering the nonsense we did and for the wonder of touring a large part of the country, which at that time for me was so...

My Favourite Piece of Technology

Without a doubt, my favourite piece of technology is the cell phone. I like it because they are easy to transport, useful and practical. I personally occupy the phone practically all day; to listen to music, watch videos, search for information or just the waste time on the internet. I remember that my first cell phone was given to me by my father around seven years old, I barely understood how it worked and I practically only used it to play snake, since then I change it every couple of years. I must admit that it is an important part of my daily life, however I could live without it, I would no longer be "connected to the internet world", but I could take that time to read a book. Of course it would be different, but it would not be a bad option either.

Changes to my study program

Many times in college I would think or mention things about the subject when talking to my friends, but with the online semesters those ideas had disappeared, but here we go… I think that the curriculum, the workload and the duration of the studies is well distributed at the semester level, with a period of "recess" before the final exams and a good number of evaluations in each subject. In the same way, I think the teaching methods are quite good, but I would change some teachers, since although it has been repeatedly said that they do not get along with the students, they change their places or simply leave them without solving the issue of the problem and does not give a good environment to attend class or study. About the faculty infrastructure, they could put more places to eat, preferably enabled for cool days, eating outside at the tables is nice, but when it rains and there is wind a simple awning does not help much. Another change they could make is to fix the ...
