Post 8 : A Subject you've enjoyed studying this semester

I enjoyed studyng the "data journalism" this semester. The data journalism is a metod of investigate the public organisms of the state and the Anonymal Societates. You work with excel and dinamic tables, and visualite the results, for exaple: in one data base there is information about suicides. I analyse this data base and concluding: 30% of the persons in Chile they commit suicide.
In class, we have analyse data bases and how to search and find important information to write good stories. 
I investigate for this class the drought in Paine and the owners of water. I analyse the data bases of DGA (Dirección General de Aguas) for create a map of the big owners of water in Paine. Also, I reading a lot of documents and studies about the capacity of the aquifer and the drought.
I like this subject because I learn to seach and find important information for the public opinion, and because I learn useful tools to exercise quality journalism.

Post 2 Cristóbal Ríos Why did you choose this career/study programme?

When I was a child, I will be a comics illustrator,  but then I changed my idea because I could never draw houses and buildings. As well, I also wanted to be a member of cosa nostra and drug trafficker, because I admiring the movie Scarface and The Godfather. When I was sixteen years, I wanted to enter to study Philosofics or History, but very impractical careers. I decided to enter to study journalism because my uncle Pedro -he is journalism and work in Ciper Chile- tell me about his job, and my father give me Operación Masacre, a book of Rodolfo Waslh. When I read the work of Walsh, I discovered my passion, and I enter to study journalism in Universidad de Chile. My experience in the university has sometimes been good and sometimes bad. I think there are many classes that do not teach me anything, and there are others where I learn too much and I feel fulfilled. I would like to work in a media like Ciper, Pro Publica, El Faro or Interferencia.
