Blog 7: Changes of my study program.

 Blog 7: Changes of my study program.

Hi everyone, I hope you are all well. Daniela here! today I'm going to talk about the changes that I would to implement on my career. First, with respect to the curriculum I would like to change some things, although I consider that the curriculum of Public Administration is quite complete (and recent), it is always good to change certain things, like to include an international studies subject or studies in leadership in public services. Regarding the workload, I would like it to be the same but in a more structured way, that is, not to ask for much homework at once. About the length of studies, maybe to cut some years and have a total duration between 4 years and one more year to do a Master program.  

With regard to the faculty facilities, I would like it to be more accessible for people with reduced mobility (it does not have an elevator), so I would like it to be much more inclusive for those who may require it. In any case, the Vicuña Mackenna 20 (VM20) building will soon be enabled, a project by the University of Chile to house the Institute of Public Affairs (INAP), the Institute for International Studies (IEI), the Center for Artistic and Cultural Extension (CEAC). The new building will allow newpaces for movement. 

With respect to the use of technology, I would like us to have software licenses such as Stata, in addition to implementing electronic devices in the classroom. Finally, referring to teaching methods I would like to change the linearity of an expository class and perhaps promote a collective strategy such as a colloquium where ideas are shared, with Thinking Based Learning or cooperative learning.
