Radical Movie: What is in being a teacher?




Sheryl Opinion: 

In my English class, we watched a Mexican film called "Radical," which tells the story of a peculiar teacher. This story made me think about what kind of teacher I want to be. To be honest, ever since I thought about being a teacher, I have been afraid of making mistakes. I am aware that being a teacher is very difficult, and I am afraid of not doing it well. I am afraid of saying something that will make someone feel bad and, with that, make them think they are not good enough to do what they want. I am very afraid of being a bad teacher. I know complicated situations arise, like the lives the children in the film led, and I am scared of not being able to help them. But I know that the fear of difficulties should not paralyze me. There are beautiful things about being a teacher, and I am eager to discover them. The teacher in the film made me think about how human it is to feel fear; now we are two people who live in fear, but even so, we go out into the world to learn about the magic of being teachers.

 Video blog A look at two universities: Pontificia Universidad Javeriana and Universidad Pedagógica Nacional                 Sheryl Opinion:    This time, I watched a video my classmates made. They had to go to the Pontifical Javeriana University for an activity. In that activity, they had to compare Javeriana University and the National Pedagogical University. I really enjoyed watching them and learned things I did not know. The spaces at Javeriana University are beautiful, and I loved the library! It was interesting to observe the research they conducted. The classrooms at Javeriana University are better than those at UPN, and student mobility is better too. Regardless, I still prefer UPN to Javeriana, but it was fun to watch them record themselves and talk about many things. I really appreciate the work my classmates did.

  Learning about our university:What is the culture like at the  UPN?  Sheryl Opinion: To learn about the space we inhabit and our university, we conducted an activity focused on diversity and culture. For this activity, our professor proposed a topic that reflected one of the cultural aspects we can find at a university; in my case, the topic was "music and sounds." My classmate and I conducted a survey to find out what kind of music people usually listen to, what languages ​​they listen to it in, whether they've ever participated in music workshops offered by the university, and, my favorite question, "How does the UPN sound to you?" All of this was intended to understand how music impacts the university experience and how it allows people to understand the space they find themselves in. I really enjoyed this activity; it was very interesting to see how the same space can look, sound, and feel differently for different people depending on the music they listen...
