Changes to my study programme :D

In the arts career at university of Chile, in four years I have many practice subjects as well as theory, in that sense the programme is very balanced, however this one has many more theorical subjects that are a pain. To start in second year, we have a subject called “field reconnaissance”, in this one we had an old teacher who was difficult to pay attention to, a lot of people fell asleep, and others were simply talking. There were a few interesting classes, however I feel that many of them did not help me in my learning.

 Then, in third year we have “writing”, this subject consisted of recognizing your way of expressing ideas, but I don’t feel that the instance was used much since a little content was passed on and then you spent the entire hour listening to the rest of the students read their assignments, I would have liked the time to be used to show more references of artists and how they expressed their ideas.

Also, in the first semester of third year we have “interdisciplinary workshop” and this was about relate art to other disciplines, we have three parts science, architecture and sociology, it was via zoom and it was a torture because of that, perhaps if it had been in person the lecture would have been more useful and fun.

And at this moment, we have “methodology of artistic creation” this subject consists of knowing different methodologies put into play in artistic production, but I feel that I don’t really understand   the criteria for passing the content, I have never applied the contents of the subject to do my assignments, I feel that the teacher is going through many different things at the same time and I get lost, so I can’t rescue anything from what I’ve seen.

Now if we talk about the infrastructure, it is deficient referring to basic things such as the maintenance of the faculty, perhaps if the proper maintenance were carried out, it could work better.  Referring to faculty’s technology I don’t use many very technological tools beyond the English lab computers, which are a garbage, so I assume that the other tools must not better.
