The area of the psychology that I like is the educational. So, my future plan, when I leave the university, Is find a job and become independent, find the possibility of work with children, in a school, or any organization, with the possibility of take care of their learning process, because for me this is the most important age in the development.

My idea is go out of Santiago after of save on money sufficient to bought a house, or an apartment, in a place in the south of Chile, like Villarrica o Chiloé, establish me there, with a good job, help the people, create an organization to work with the needy childrens and their families, to support them, above everything, in their education, and affective development.

 With these objective achieved I would like raise a big family (with many childrens) there, because I was raised in a place very quiet, a rural area, and I still reminding how cool was those years, those winters, those summers, that air.

I still seeing so far that dream, but for sure, I am still working for that.  

Bernard Weiner

Weiner is a cognitive psychologist born in 1935, he is known for developing a form of attribution theory, which explains the motivational and emotional entailments of academic success and failure, the attributions are related  with the motivation and can affect the behavior of the people, their strategy and their social relationships. He is an academic of the University of California, in Los Angeles.

Bernard Weiner reformulated the Heider’s theory, adding two aspects or dimensions, the controllable and the uncontrollable causes. In the controllable causes, the bigger the control in the learning process, the more the expectations can be and the higher the motivation to make an effort to learn, and in the case of the uncontrollable causes he says that in those causes is impossible to work.

I like this author because I think the education is very important in the life of the people, I think that the motivation is a very significant aspect in the learning process, because we need to have the interest for apprehend the knowledge. 

This photo is not one of my favourites, and I do not know who took it, because I was very little… It is probable that this picture had been taken by an aunt, in the country side, near Lago Rapel, around 1994, I do not know…

This picture makes me remember when i was a child and how pampered I was by my grandmother, how big  this house was, how many animals my grandmother had there … Very nice memories of this country house, all my big family was united there for the summer holidays… my cousins and I usually went to collect corncob, berries, eggs…  In the breakfast, my grandmother gave us fresh milk and cheese of their cows, very early in the morning… she was very good at making food, like empanadas, humitas, corncob cake and handmade bread.

How many memories! It makes me feel very nostalgic…

Cheers!

Hi classmates! Today I’m here to tell which is my favorite movie. The movie is “Into The Wild”, the film was road in 2007, directed by Sean Penn, the stars of the film are Emile Hirsh (Chris McCandless in the movie), Marcia Gay Harden, Wiliam Hurt, Jena Malone, Kristen Stewart, and others.

The movie is based in the book with the same name, write by Jon Krakauer, the movie shows the life of a student, after graduate from Emory University decide leave all the material things of his life, and start a travel into the wild. The final is not what Chris hope…

I like this movie because is a very strong history, and my way of see the world has changed after the movie (also I read the book). So, I always recommends this movie to everyone who wants see a very good movie and keep thinking about that.

Cheers!
