If you are encouraged to do a job for Congress UNIV 2011, but still do not know how to do it, you're among people who have read these pages. Please read them calmly and tell us what you think. In what follows, we will try to give information, ideas and examples to ease your task.
First of all we want to show the specific profile of the UNIV Congress. Why not all the proposals can go well. UNIV his feet on the ground and is interested in the problems of the world wants to promote a spirit of thoughtful, optimistic and committed to the reality.
Remember that the final phase of the conference is an international youth meeting in Rome, which creates more opportunities for dialogue between members of the university community, and gives the opportunity to study together the problems and issues that our society lives. This usually requires an intense experience and a remarkable intellectual openness.
Next! Have the courage to think about your reality, that you live every day. The "daily life: your family, university or work, the social, political, economic and educational in your country, etc ... but do not look at it superficially. Look at her fondly, as something of yours, why do not you leave it, but you have to understand and find solutions. Why you need, and it depends on you that things will change.
If you have already decided to work with UNIV, some advice: do not pretend to address all issues, but choose one in particular that worries you and you really care. If you want, you can find someone who wants to take with you this challenge.
After the enthusiasm, without letting all of the steps, stop for a moment in front of the topic you have chosen: Try to think of the ideas you have. When you realize that data are lacking, the investigation will begin. Try some tips from specialists of the topic, go to fill the gaps with readings and discussions, will not be defined until the key points of the argument
There are many themes in mind, but if not, here is you some tips.
It's time to address the chosen theme. We offer an example to help you: imagine that you love the cinema. This is a hobby that you share with your friends and classmates, so you decide to turn this interest into a job UNIV. You see in the movies an art that comes to people of all social classes, you realize that you have the ability to share experiences, knowledge and ways of life very easily. With a specific language, you do see some aspects of the human being yourself. And does it well, you realize that the director introduces you to easily in reality she wants to send. Now since this year's theme is about freedom, it is from here that you can focus work.
Liberty in the cinema. With these guidelines you can start working. What are the basic concepts of freedom, which are used for analysis of anthropology through film? It is also important to know something of the language of cinema: everything that appears in every scene wants to communicate something, everything is part of the story. Music, scenery, dialogue and silence, shots and camera movements. It is not just talking about the message, but the way it is constructed.
Have a critical mind that will allow you to evaluate the proposal of the director. Why not just film you see, you live. Somehow a movie is to share an experience. It is something that belongs to us. You and we have suffered for their defeats, their victories rejoiced. We learned something of human beings, of ourselves.
You can simply say "What a great movie" or "What an ugly that is, "but the times require to go further. It is important to know your opinions to argue about what you saw.
You can compare the different films (topics, characters, music, editing ...), or even see the influence of cinema in a sector or social sector. Learn to see the film, that's something that contributes to society. The door is open.
Another example. You can choose a social debate that is taking place in your country or environment, or which took place in the past, and in which we can perceive the concept of freedom used in different ways. I do not think there are many difficulties in finding a topic, because the problems are always in the spotlight: the reality of the Islamic veil in schools, unemployment, extreme poverty, social inequalities, access to education, the right to autonomy of a region, immigration, etc ... problem can be addressed from the perspective of the various participants in society: media, public opinion, politicians, academics, neighbors. But on one condition: the specific revenue!
Exactly what you'd expect, is that your work has not only a theoretical approach, but that has carried through into a reality. Because it affects you and those around you. Only in this way your contribution will be effective: give concrete solutions to actually close. In a word "action"! We hope that the effort to deepen social reality, projects are born small, medium and large, they contribute to a new profile to our society.
