Why did you choose this career/study program?

 

I chose to study social work because I have always been interested in the social sciences, especially as in this area it could generate a change both in society and in people. So when I applied to college my options were Social Work, Psychology and Sociology. A week before applying, I was still wondering whether to put Social Work or Psychology first, but thanks to my couple I discovered that I wanted to study social work. When I was a child I wanted to be a veterinarian, because I love pets, but over time I discovered that I did not have much affinity with biology, but with history, so I put the idea aside.

My experience at the university has been super pleasant in terms of virtuality, it has also been difficult for me, since being from the region I have not been able to participate in any face-to-face activity that has been done.

I would love to work in the areas of gender violence or sename, working in the field and with people in person, I don't see myself sitting in front of a desk.

  Hello, good morning!! today I am going to talk about what I study. I study social work since I have always liked the social sciences and the work it has. Social work can generate great changes in the world and in society, since it focuses on making profound changes or improvements to systems, helping individuals or groups who are at social risk, causing social workers to be agents of change. Social work is vital to progress as a society since it seeks social development. In the process I see myself in the future working and being a true contribution to society, making far-reaching changes, although I still don't know in which area I would like to specialize, since I like many, but I hope to be a great social worker who can be of great contribution to the development of society and of course that I enjoy and I am passionate about exercising it from the field that I find myself.

 Virginia Robinson a person who I respect in the history of social work  I Admire  her because Virginia Robison was a feminist and a social worker just like me, She was a fighter of the movement and she was close to poor people, she was always with them trying to help, and I feel identified with her because that is what I want to aspire to, to be with people and implement a feminist vision that apart from helping people, especially women, can generate a critical thinking from that vision, being able to generate questions that help them to value themselves and help each other. She contributed to a sociological but more psychological approach,  showing  many psychological theories and to develop a new theoretical vision for social work. She focused especially on the relationship between social worker and persons, as a basic tool that accompanies the whole process of help. With the famous phrase of her: "what the person chooses to tell is what is important for the ...

My favorite piece of technology.

 My favorite technological device is the smartphone, which is a device to make calls on a portable basis, in addition to currently having the possibility of connecting to internet networks, using this to be able to have applications, both for entertainment and communication, It includes a camera and many other things that makes it a pocket computer. I got my first phone when I was 10 years old, my parents gave it to me and it was my mother's old phone, at that time my phone was full of games and I used it only to play and communicate with my parents. It has become my partner, it is always with me, and I tend to use it whenever I want, I mainly use it to communicate with my friends, watch videos and photos. I like the telephone because it gives me the facility to communicate with people who are far away and thus interact, adding that I have fun looking at certain things. My life without the cell phone would be a bit more difficult, since I should not have the information in my pocke...
