The truth is that I have been thinking about this topic since I started my studies, I think it is extremely important to discuss these issues for the future of the next generations.  Based on the curriculum of the first and second year of anthropology, I would really like to add subjects related to physical anthropology, since in the first year (first and second semester) we only had the subject of Human Evolution, all the other subjects are of social anthropology. To me, that is one of the main reasons why the major most chosen by students is social, since it is the one that is most known.   Honestly, I haven't had that much of a workload, the subjects are generally very calm and not stressful. The only subject that I found to have a heavy workload was Fundamental Problems of Anthropology II, in this course we had weekly essay-type evaluations. I would like to modify the academic load, because many times students do the work in a hurry in order to hand in the work. In ...

 Mmm I think I would like to travel to both eras, but for a short time (a week in each), this would be to have time to explore, discover and reflect on situations that I will explain later.  Usually, historical facts have several sources and stories that contradict each other (mainly when it comes to wars, discoveries and colonizations), for this reason I would go to the past to discover and observe to have an opinion about it, since many times in historical texts situations are "censored" or sometimes it is simply because they are unknown due to lack of archaeological material.

On the other hand, I would like to travel to the future because of the uncertainty ...

Pedagogy of history to Anthropology physic  Since elementary school I had  the dream of being a history teacher, in high school  the only thing  I did was  to enhance that dream. I prepared myself to give a good PTU  and be able  to enter the UMCE, I did history classes before the tests  and there  was even and time when  I gate private lessons to people outside my school, the truth is that I really liked teaching and more it if was  history. In my fourth year of high school,  I saw that this dream was getting closer and closer, and it was when I was finally able to reflect on the disadvantages of choosing this profession; job field and salary. I talked to many professors about the "unpleasant" part of this discipline, and sadly they confirmed what I already knew, it was very difficult to find a job, as there were quite a few history professors. Finally, I got into anthropology, at first it was for social anthropology, but now ...
