Atunci și acum

La mulți ani plini de bucurii și împliniri tuturor!  Ce mai faceți cum sunteți? Eu am revenit pe meleagurile natale și am pus mâna pe cartea ce a ajuns la mine acasă după ce eu eram deja placată. Dar mai bine mai târziu decât niciodată, nu? Pentru că în SUA stăteam prost cu timpul liber, era foarte puțin și habar nu aveam cum să-l organizez astfel încât să fie productiv și relaxant în același timp, acasă am timp liber suficient și reușeșsc să fac ce îmi place și să simt că iese un produs finit satisfactor, zic produs pentru că orice e creat, scris sau gândit de mintea și lucrat de mâinile mele e un produs al meu.  De exemplu lectura acestei cărți și recenzia ei, sunt un produs al muncii mele. Sper că mă înțelegeți. Să revenim la subiect.  Am auzit despre cartea Bărbații sunt de pe Marte,  Femeile sunt de pe Venus încă de prin liceu și nu i-am dat atenție. La masterat, aveam un curs ce avea ca temă Studiul de gen, diferențele de percpeție as...

This is the second article about my Training experience in Denmark, near Copenhagen. You can read the first one here . At the training project I have found awesome people from all around Europe, there were participants from 14 European countries.  The project days were structured very well, the time was always precious, so every moment was used to put our minds and ideas on work. We worked as teams, we worked individually as well through non-formal education methods. The accent was on team, because, we as individuals are a part o community. Part of our neighborhood, of our teams at job, part of our countries, and of course part of European Community.  We had group dynamics, games, workshops on different topics like: Media bias, Social representation definitions, Recognizing fallacies, Recognizing appeals on emotion, Text analysis workshop, Deconstructing images etc.  One of my favorite workshops was the one with visuals. We had images fro...

I always wanted to try something new, to see some new things, to meet new people all around the world – or Europe at least. This wish is still in progress on me. This year I had other two kind of similar experiences. You can read the article about the one on Vilnius, Lithuania here .  So, I’ve started searching the Internet for a new Erasmus+ experience. Social media gave me one like that in Denmark, somewhere near Copenhagen.  My first questions were… is Denmark a very cold country? This what I have heard. I will be able to carry on enough warm clothes in my luggage?   Critical thinking? Am I aware on this topic? I have started my travelling plans, but some of them have changed suddenly near departure time. Oh no, what I am gonna do now??? So, I had to work fast, again. Depending on people? Yes, it’s troublesome – but I managed it somehow.  I packed sufficient things on a suitcase, a backpack and a plastic bag with some brown bears and wor...
