Blog 10: Evaluation of your blogging experience

Hi everyone

                About My experience in the blogs I must say that it was very interesting. I show my opinion about different topics and I could read about the opinion of my classmates. About the topic there’s some very interesting like “My favorite piece of technology” or “An expert on your subject”.

  

                I feel that I can write now more fluid. I can write big paragraph easily and put into words all I think about a topic in concrete. The different topic gives me each a vocabulary specific so I can write about more things than the beginning of semester. 

  

                In the future may be interesting do YouTube videos and combine with the blogs so you can practice the speaking and the writing. Also, the YouTube’s videos are more contingent than the Blogs but anyway make me feel nostalgic hahaha.

                I would like to write about pets because I love pets, hamsters, dogs, cats, everyone. So, I can share a picture of my dog. Also, I would like to write about other contingent topic because I like to read what people think about social, political or economic topic and I like to share my opinion too.

                It is my last Blog.

                                                                                                              See ya!

Blog 8: A subject you have enjoyed studying this semester

Hi everyone

Today I’m going to talk about a subject that I enjoy a lot studying this semester, “Principios de Habitabilidad y sustentabilidad”.

In it subject at beginning we learnt about the weather zones of Chile and the principal materials that are used in each zone. Exist a norm that divide the country and give you information of the zone, it give you the material recommended for building. We study a traditional house from one zone and identified the aspect from the norm in our case of study.

After that, come the more funny part of the subject. We learnt about thermal efficiency and we have to design a solution that help to save energy and take advantage of energy of environment, like solar energy.

We learnt too about natural illumination. We have to design a space and light up naturally. After that we have to calculate whit an instrument the quantity of light in the space and accord to it determinate the use that the space could have according to the Chilean norm.

I like it subject because we learnt to design using the energy and conditions of the environment. This way we help to decontaminate the planet through the architecture.
