SELF - EVALUATION 

1. Positive things in my work: 

I think is a really sincere video, that I try to talk with the "heart".  It's not just preparing a video for  homework, it's trying to talk a little bit about me, and how I am.

Also I think that the video is well done, with the images that make the speech less boring.

2. Things to improve:

I think I could talk a little bit more about every topic, and for that I would have had to prepare it more.

I'm sure I could have spent more time doing this homework.

3. Questions:

Was it difficult for you to talk about this topic?

Which one was the most difficult to talk about?

How did you feel when you saw it finished?

7/10/14 - Schooling the World

In these videos we can see the proccess that happened all around the world. By this proccess millions of people have been teached by people from the United States. We can see the role played by the modern education in the destruction of the world´s last indigenous cultures.

It criticises the thought about the neccessity of a unique form of modern scooling, it shows us the impact not only in children, but also in adults of each indigenous culture,

Indigenous were fine living by their owns values and teaching their children what they considered it has to be teached, but then as an indigenous saif “traditional ways of compassion, kindness and helping one anotherare slowly dying out”.

Before modern schooling their education focused on the spiritual teachings and now children only thinks about earn a lost of money.

The United States of America defends the ´scchooling the world´ because they consider it's important because children have to learn the economic system to make them competitive in the global economy; but ironically the countries they work at don't have a good economic system and much of the children that are learning these things don't even have food. 


We should really change this situation!
