SANTIAGO MAYOR

We started seeing a movie it was Toy story. We and the kids really enjoyed the movie it was really funny, and the movie had a good message, we talked about the movie and what it meant, the kids seemed to understand what it meant. After that they played with puzzles, and later we gave them something to eat. We went out to the park, we gave them paper bags, colors, wool and glue, and with this elements they would do a puppet, we gave them all the indications, theyre drawins were really intersting, they had a good imagination doing this and they had a good finish.

COGNITVE SURPLUS

Last class, we saw a video were we treated many topics, like consumism, and a new concept for me, cognitive surplus.
The man in the video,Clay Shirky's, said that cognitive surplus, is the excess of knowledge that many individuals have here in our society. He says that this cognitive surplus is very big and that by the new technolgys we have created is much easier to expand this knowledge. So here he makes a reflection about how many potential we have if we cared to use our cognitive surplus, instead of wasting time watching televition we could use internet to interact with others and expand our knowledge.

My personal reflection of the video
I think that what he says It´s true, we all are worried to consume instead of give, the televition is the biggest relax for many people, because like he says, you dont really do something, so I agree that instead of wasting time doing nothing we could use other technologys like internet and interact with others, to use that cognitive surplus, that you have, to expand knowledge and help others. I think that with the apparition of internet, there have being a lot much more interaction between people of all the world, you can meet any person of any society, so if its easier to interact you should take advantage of it.

Has it challenged you to think about your activities and how you spend your free time?
Yes, because what he says its true, I am more a consumer than a producer, I spend my time watching t,v, and well I use internet, for homeworks, and talking by messenger, but I dont care of giving to other people.

Are you primarily a consumer or do you produce and share as much or more than you consume?
I am primarily a consumer like I said, I worry more of fulfilling my necessities, instead of looking to produce and help others.

Does it help you appreciate the social action you are doing for this class?
Yes, I should take conscience that they are people that you with all the advantages that you have, for being more lucky, can change the lives of many, if you put enthuasiasm on it.
