What I learned from the video

I found the video " A vision of K-12 Students Today" very insightful.  It was interesting to see how much time our students are spending using technology. Even though the clip focused on college students, I think it is safe to say that this also applies to younger students as well.  I teach third grade,and it amazes me how many of them already have their own cell phones, ipods, ipads, tablets, etc. Put this with the amount of time my students spend…

Informe 1: Servicio Voluntariado Good Samaritan Clinic

Durante mi visita a la clínica hice diferentes tareas. Primero tuve que presentarme como la intérprete a la paciente y luego a la terapéutica. Entramos a un cuarto muy chico, apenas cabíamos las tres. La terapéutica le pregunto a la paciente como se sentía, que si tenía algún dolor. Después fuimos a la sala de terapia. Ahí es cuando empezaron los ejercicios, la paciente sufría de dolor en la espalda. Cuando empecé a interpretar se me…

Reflection on Videos

I learned from this weeks videos that I have a lot to learn.  I was not surprised to find out that I am a digital immigrant, but was shocked to learn that I still have several old ideas about teaching and the way students learn.  I have a decent amount of technology available in my classroom, but I don't make good use of it.  I know my students would benefit from more whole group lessons using the whiteboard, more small group lessons with the laptops, and more one on one time with the iPad. …

Reflexión °5 Traducción 2

             Esta reflexión fue un poquito difícil para mí porque un gran parte de una entrevista son las inflexiones de la voz.  Por algunas partes yo no sabía exactamente qué intentó decir Guillermo del Toro.  Además, a veces cambia lo que a decir o no contesta la pregunta exactamente.  Por ejemplo, cuando le pregunta si El Hobbit está completamente terminada, responde que terminaron los guiones y describe el proceso actual. 

            Además, el significado de la oración que…

SPA 323: Reflexión: Traducción de una entrevista

 

En la traducción de la entrevista, se encuentran algunas dificultades en la coordinación de significado del idioma fuente al idioma meta, por ejemplo, con la palabra, ‘disco’. ‘Disco’ puede ser traducido en varias maneras, incluyendo el baile, la forma material del disco compacto, o la compilación de canciones de una artista musical. En este contexto, el último significado se parece correcto, pero ¿cómo se traduce al inglés? Simplemente, podemos traducirlo al cognado ‘disk’,…

1-9: ¡A escribir! Opcion n°1

Cuando yo era niña, mi familia y yo fuimos al festival de Renacimiento casi cada año. Es un festival que dura una semana en un campo cerca de Dayton, Ohio. Me gustó este festival porque fue una exhibición de un tiempo completamente diferente. Así que había muchísimas personas disfrazadas, comidas del tiempo, y lo más interesante-“jousting.”

La primera vez que fuimos, fuimos para ver mis vecinos, quienes les encantó el festival, y se disfrazaban cada año con disfraces super-floridos.…
