Post N° 9: Changes to my study programme


Hi!

In this post I will write on a very important topic...the changes to my study programme

The bachelor´s degree in plastic arts at the University of Chile is very practical. It has many hours of workshops such as paiting, engraving, textiles, ceramics, drawing, etc. It gives more importance to the "task" than to the theory.
Theoretical classes are very important!
They help you to have a more critical mind and to create your own hypothesis of the work that you are executing.
The more knowledgeable part of  theory helps you to have better syntax, wording, insight and coherence on the subjetc you are planting.


That is why the teaching method should change.
Less hours of practical classes to be able to add even more theoretical classes.
I also find that there is need to reform the curriculum grid of the career.
Well, apart form having more hours of theoretical classes and less of practical classes they should focus the career to the labor scope as corator, restoration, pedagogy, cultural management, advertising, among other, so that they can develop as an artist and in turn to work in something related to the area. It would also be excellent if work practices were included in the study pensum, so the labor insertion would not be so traumatic
The use of technology and the improvement of the infra-structure help to improve the curriculum.
Having a large computer room and good projectors in the classroom help the student´s performance, because he has more access to the internet to work, and the teachers can do a more complete class with a good projection image of his thematic to teach.

And on the infrastructure... I find that it is the most beautiful faculty of the University of Chile <3
