Blog 6: How Can Your Major/Career Make the World a Better Place


Hi everyone! 


Well, I think geography is really focused on affect the world positively. As is a mayor that I've been exploring in the journey, I came to realice that studing the diferent sides of the world in a holistic way is really necesary, considering the tension between Social Sciences and Physics Sciences. I have became really conscious about the diferent problematics of the world in diferent levels and how they conect. 

I would love to help diferent cultures, social classes, minoritys and even the earth not only making investigations about them, but trying to take actions for them to make a better place for everyone. Hope somehow that would be possible.

Right now, there are many investigations that contributes to the world's benefit by showing realities that through other eyes were never seen. Also, as I mentioned, that paper is the first step. We have to take action about how can we take the evidence and make a change, wich can be through making this information understanable for everyone and not only de academy, or not allowing some buildings in places that could affect people, etc.

Thank you for reading, take care!

Blog 3: My favorite piece of technology

Imagen
Hi! My favorite piece of technology is my tablet Samsung. I've always watched hoy many people took digital notes and was very impresive to me. So, last year, I was able to get this piece for that principal purpose, but in the journey I discovered that you can do whatever you want in this devices, like writing personal things, have interactive digital planers, draw, play video games and even make your own music! This tablet has helped me with my career considering that in Geography we read a lot, so now y have every text, PPT, and notes in the same place. Also, like I said, sometimes I use this device for my free time activities. I highly recommend using it if you want digital notes (that way you don't have to get many notebooks and waste many pages in some cases). Of course there are better options than Samsung, but I think this device is able to do almost anything that you want with good results, considering the relation quality-price. ^^

Blog 2: Why did you choose this career?

Hi! I hope that you all are ok :) So when I was younger, I used to had so many dream jobs because I've always liked so many things jajaja I remember that once I decided that I was going to be a musician, but when I grew up I realiced that something was missed in that decision because I needed aspects that could contemplate things like art and "human side" of th world, but also like the "cientific side" of the world. Since that, I went through many options: Music Engineering, Psychology, Math Engineering, and many others. Even after the PSU, I was not sure about what carreer was the right for me. I decided for Math Engineering very insecure about that decision, because the firts time that I got in a University i choose that same career.  So then I applied to that career in many Universities, got acepted in one but the University of Chile contact me to offer other carers, Geography between them. I started to do research about what topics were in the ca...

Blog 7: A Career-Related Website

Imagen
Hi everyone! So this time I'm going to talk about a carreer-related website, wich it's Google Earth Engine: https://explorer.earthengine.google.com/#workspace  This website is really complex, I'm still learning how to use it in my carreer. But, in many features, is have access to many images from different satellites in the space right now, even many images from the ones that from today are not working anymore. This is a tool for Geographers and many other carreers that use images to make interpretations of, for example, urban growth. Right in the bar that is in the up section, you can load any satellite you need for your research in the moment of the history you need (in the case the information exists :P).  We are just learning how to use it, so I would say that I visit the site every week or one times every two weeks. I live this site because it is a good way to get better sources of information for our projects and better qualities images of the place we need to study...
