DIRECTOR OF NATIONAL INSTITUTE OF TECHNICAL EDUCATION, MARÍA ROSA Almandoz

"We need science and technology graduates are focused on the production"

To Almandoz, there querecuperar technical school and revive the industry dismantled. Ruben A.

Arribas

"The crisis of vocations in engineering is not a local phenomenon. If you ask in the U.S., Spain or Germany, will also tell you that his weakness is the lack of engineers. " Rosa Maria italics Almandoz, Director of the National Institute of Educational Technology (INET), aims to shed light on what understand the modern information society and knowledge of the profiles with fewer graduates in Argentina. According to her, the reasons lie in a cultural paradigm shift.

"Until 20 or 30 years, science and technology were almost separate areas. Research in Basic Sciences, Physics, Chemistry, Biology and Mathematics, was very independent of technological development applied to production. However, in recent decades, the knowledge attained such economic importance that this situation changed. Today much of the research in basic science feeds the technologists, and these for innovar necesitan a su vez conocimientos profundos en esas disciplinas”, continúa Almandoz. Y añade: “Por eso necesitamos egresados con una formación fuerte en ciencia y en tecnología, pero que además estén volcados al campo de la producción”. Es decir: el mercado ingenieril amplió su radio de acción y demanda nuevos perfiles profesionales, de ahí la escasez mundial de ingenieros.

Pero también existe un factor local. A pesar de la reactivación económica que vive la Argentina, el país todavía no se ha recuperado de la devastadora Década Perdida (1980-1990). En esa época cerraron más de 160 mil pymes —el gran motor de la economía and social support of almost any society, and large companies relocated their production plants to other countries. The industrial waste and unemployed technicians and engineers, technology education that was dropped almost a domino effect.

"The education policies of 90 accompanied this process deindustrializing and technicians left the band in middle school, a very traditional educational line, other than Mexico and Argentina, and in the decades from 40 to 60 generated foremen, chemists and agricultural technicians, always prestigious, "says the sociologist expert Methodology of Scientific Research. The Federal Education Menem guillotined the education sector strategy, and it blew the most important bridge between high school and engineering. The effects of this explosion are known: many technical schools were closed.

why the government is committed to a dual strategy: to revive the textile industries and naval dismantled, above all, and retrieve technical secondary school, an emblem of the country's glorious past. "Technical schools are those that best prepare students for engineering," argues the Director of INET. Why? "The future technicians attending school from 13 to 19 years, were enrolled full-time -6 to 7 clock hours per day," got a strong background in mathematics and technology-oriented. " Of course, where industries were also inserted, and that favored a virtuous circle: good education, good job, and vice versa.

That led to the decades of 40 to 60 boys knew what he was doing a technician or engineer, and today do not know. And if they lack this knowledge can not be thought of as future Mechatronics technicians and engineers in aeronautics. "The vocation is not spirits. You can not choose what is not known. Kids should choose a career where you will enjoy reading and learning about it, "says Almandoz.

It is also unstable country karma: "The curricula speak 5 or 6 years for engineering, but the actual duration of these courses is on average 9.5. How many families have economic oxygen to support a child that time? What girl can consider today a project to 9 or 10 years if it must also study and work? ". Hence, the Vocational Technical Education Act of 2005, the Government also wants to promote higher technical education as an alternative to college to ensure employability. To do this in 2006 spent 260 million dollars in grants, improvement plans and educational series that encouraged the link between government, universities and businesses.

Finally there are the shortcomings of high school students in mathematics, those who speak of the statistics. In what is a degree in Education says: "What we have to do is improve the educational training of teachers. About how knowledge is constructed in each discipline, a bad teacher of mathematics is more critical that a bad teacher of History. "

So to solve the problem vocational ... Yes, more training in mathematics and insistently demand from the adult world, all right, but a) first teachers to better explain and b) you'd think that adults are responsible for a society that has taken the boys to the indifference technical careers. Therefore it is in the hands of politicians, businessmen, parents and educators that the situation is reversed. Rosa Maria's words Almandoz, mother of a son who is studying Industrial Engineering, leave little room for doubts.

FREE TIME PROGRAM OF THE CITY OF BUENOS AIRES

A secondary end point,
experts radio hosts almost

This training is part of the curriculum high schools, focusing on Social Communication.

Rubén A. Arribas
Are
12:57 pm on Sunday, and on Radio La Porteña just missing 3 minutes left and Free Time news starting one. In the air is the writer Maximiliano González Jewkes, who answers questions by telephone about boxing and literature that made him live Laura Rombolá, Romania school student, the Villa Real neighborhood. As agreed with her five teammates, his is the responsibility of closing the last block. However, the timer advances and Laura can not find the time to interrupt the interviewee. Opposite her, Christian Gauna, teacher and conductor of the program, the study looks at the clock, lift your right hand halfway up and makes a signal to cut ya, ya.

Laura nods, checks the time, it becomes red. Eva Gonzalez, his teacher in year 5 of the Bachelor with a major in Social Communication, looks and, Gauna, cut the air with his hand several times. The teenager is pressed the headphones and makes a face, as we explain, "was the first interview of my life! How would you cut?! ". Jewkes suddenly assumes answered the question and remains silent. All stare at Laura, and she meets him in the precarious tried recording studio school: Thank the respondent for being in the air and passes the baton to the driver. Are 12.58 h.

Now the pressure is on Gauna, but he is an experienced speaker and knows how to use those two minutes. Remember that free time is a middle school program in collaboration with the Government of the City invites the students to say goodbye to the audience and summons the audience to that next Sunday from 12 to 13 h re-tuned AM 1110 where students will accompany Thomas Spore, the district of Liniers. After a brief curtain announces, will the news. Impeccable left over a minute.

Girls relieved. In this last hour, and working near the pace of professional test scoring yielded a for Radio workshop area. In boxing class had chosen the theme for the program, week after week planned and prepared the content. Thus, tape recorder in hand, interviewed Joshua Melendez (16), a fellow who boxed, and their coach. Then read "Torito", the story that he dedicated to the boxer Cortázar Slaughterhouse Justo Suarez, and let the voice track of cronopio July and the other recorded theirs. Then, in the study of the Porteña, Christian Gauna helped introduce the blocks, synchronized the time and chatted with them about how they had open mic developed the program. Finally, com or had complications with the material they had recorded with Jewkes, were encouraged to talk to him live. In total, three weeks of work to take advantage of this first hour of radio in his life.

Well, work and many nerves. So when strikes one, Laura Rombolá (17), Karen Lucero (18), Jacqueline Gonzalez (17), Melina Menafra (17), Aldana Riguera (17) and Fiorella del Mazo (18) want to scream, but Gauna is teaching radio: they point to the two speakers ready to give the news. The girls nod, put jackets, go quietly into the hall of the 8 th floor of the Centro Cultural General San Martín and that yes, Hence hug, cry, comment on the incident and to take pictures with the teaching staff. None was thought to be a radio announcer, they explain, because they want to study cinema, advertisements or Psychology. Today, however, had fun while repeated next week. "Early Rising again on Sunday? "It was good that when we receive the messages: you felt that people were listening," says Karen, who had slept only an hour and a half because he had a birthday yesterday fifteen. They can not be more honest to ask these girls: in class or over the airwaves, all begging to get caught with the school to hear.

CHOOSE THE TOPICS AND PRODUCED

"We try to tell kids all they have to say, but with respect. It is they who choose the topics. Rodolfo Walsh in school, for example, investigated who was Walsh, one of Villa Soldati are with the club's history Sacachispas and last week the program was about abortion. " Besides teaching, Mariano Molina is the coordinator of Free Time, a radio program of the Government of the City that use 12 middle schools that offer Bachelor of Social Communication, focusing on re-entry and 8 schools.

This is the second year of the project and has such good reception that Molina and his team also launched the REC Network (Community Schools), a school news agency. Both projects point to the same thing: "Let those who leave this school literate, are capable of producing a radio neighborhood and to build a community newspaper." At the moment, as Melina Menafra, today's school students this conclusion after Romania took the program: "We learned to paddling."

Estrategias para decidir mejor hacia dónde
orientar el futuro profesional

Los expertos señalan cuatro etapas clave en la elección de una carrera: indecisión, exploration, definition and reconsideration. Recommend participation in workshops and parents suggest an accompaniment without pressure. Ruben A.

Arribas

at any time of life, being certain that you choose it is difficult. Cuesta. Examples are many but perhaps the purchase of an apartment is the one that best allows adults to understand how teenagers feel when they decide where to focus their careers. Sell \u200b\u200ban apartment to buy another usually be matched by intense periods of anxiety, where anyone facing uncertainties, conditions or times of confusion. According to Claudia Fuentes, psychologist Management Team de Orientación al Estudiante de la Universidad de Buenos Aires (DOE), quienes egresan del secundario atraviesan las mismas etapas para decidir que un adulto que quiere cambiar de hogar.

Estas etapas son 4: indecisión, exploración, definición y replanteo. Como en el caso del departamento, la certidumbre total —si es que esta llegara a existir— sobre los estudios elegidos se da cuando uno experimenta su decisión, esto es, cuando pasan unos meses. Es más: si en el momento de firmar el boleto de compra de un inmueble, los adultos suelen replantearse la idoneidad de la elección, ¿qué miedos no sufrirán los jóvenes cuando toman la primera gran decisión con que construir su future? So if adults hate the press, guys who leave the child something similar happens. And it is rightly so: this is your first step as emerging adults.

Then, choose the right begins to enjoy an environment where they feel free. Yes, Flores explains: "Too much freedom is not good, the children need to feel listened to, not everything to match. Of course, for parents, teachers and significant adults this means moving in a very sensitive limit and should therefore follow, but always without pressure. That means they have to talk to the kids and that they can discuss their interests, but also must learn to respect the individuality and freedom of those who choose. "

Talking, respecting the period of indecision the boy, accompanying. Translation for parents: in addition to buying guides for the student or car to take children to a vocational workshop in life need to be careful when they talk show, especially when limited to issuing opinions on the various professions. Example: "All actors are lazy," and it appears that the child wants to study drama. Believe it or not, the kids respect the opinions of adults, and each trial the value of these will close a door to the future you imagine.

And the future is better not to put hurdles in advance, even in the classical way of vocational guidance. Flores detailed question today is no longer "What career do I look?", But "What I want to develop activities in the future." Taking this new starting point, the counselor should help deepen the boy alone in their personal interests and join him to discover what path students might describe to satisfy those desires. In this regard, the DOE specialist emphasizes, "Choosing a career is not even a closed point and final destination is another step in building a personal project for the future." Moral: this is the first big decision of many others expect, learn how to turn the uncertainty that accompanies a teaching means starting to be built solidly as a person.

also talk about "future project" instead of "race" helps to address a very common among adolescents, "I want to continue studying, but do not know the why." That's what brought the boys, and from there, counselors, no matter the race, it is important to talk with young people so that they discover for themselves how to articulate what they like and what matters to them with educational offerings and a possible output work. Nobody decides for them, but they take time and learn to decide what is best for themselves.

why the DOE puts the emphasis on providing opportunities for reflection where students share their concerns with peers, psychologists and teachers. "The workshops serve as an area of \u200b\u200bprevention. To the extent that kids can chat about the future, will find themselves better able to cope, "said Flores. Therefore, if the adult world expects their ranks swell with young people eager to learn, you should first tempt you with some wisdom: teaching how to decide for oneself is a good first step. The kids want to grow not lacking.

. Box-interview with Graciela Attina, Director of the Department of Therapeutic Association of Buenos Aires (APBA)

"We need to ask court." That's a major shortcoming of the children attending the Education Expo, according to Graciela Attina, Director of the Department of Therapeutic Association of Buenos Aires (APBA). Hence, this year, she and the team of 4 psychologists who coordinates workshops divided into a blade that will serve as guide young people what they should do at the fair.

"is to combat the glare they produce in a place so big with so many people and so many stands. Let's be honest: the boys go and gather, meet and gather papers, they talk about the future, I propose workshops, yet many are thinking about graduation trip and others see October next year too far. Ie: the end what happens is they go, get shy and do not know what to ask, "said Attina.

So it's good to come to any of the 4 newspapers and free workshops will dictate APBA in the Education Expo. There psychologists will make them play, and fun way, make them identify some fears that wake them up certain careers, or they will undo mistakes like confusing Human Resources Human Rights. Who also attend crisis may place on preconceptions they bring influences from fashion circulating vocational or live in their environment. Above all, find a counselor that will reflect on two crucial questions to begin building a vocation: "What am very capable" and "What role performance in my family and among my friends? ".

According Attina, these two questions are vital because teens fantasize, feel capable of anything and end up overwhelmed by the sheer range of possibilities available. Put another way: do not know how to separate between his vocation and hobbies. "This is very difficult, especially for those who do well in school, they find it hard to choose. Teenagers develop rich logic, a high capacity associative, but find it hard to rank the ideas, organize them. And that's where we help. "

And why so much effort into a hierarchy? "It must have a clear objective and learn to banks to do so. Agree, that those who have studied a race are only 5 or 6 subjects that excited us, but the rest do not ... And that you also have to pass it to the kids. " But the issue of choosing well, goes further: "When crises hit, hits us all equally, be a photographer or engineer. The title is important, yes, but when an earthquake, the only thing that sustains us is working on what we like. " That is: be satisfied with our project staff.

PROGRAM OF THE CITY OF BUENOS AIRES

Schools that do not close their doors

There are six children's centers in Buenos Aires areas of greater social risk. There, every Saturday between 10 and 14, children three to six years enjoy educational and recreational activities. Ruben A.

Arribas

When Pierro Mariana arrives at his side, Rosario rises from his chair and said something to him. The teacher moved hugs, kisses him and asks for silence: Rosario wants to talk. All large and small, are looking at where the two. Spend a few seconds, it seems that the very young she has suffered a fit of shyness. Finally says

-A round of applause for Simon and Olga.

Rosario is 5 years old and sitting next to her brother Dylan, 3. Pierro Mariana coordinates the Children's Centers Piedra Buena school in the village Hidden City, and today I was upset since early because the menu was too close to what kids eat at home: "We never sent Milanese", had protested . Silvia and Olga are the cooks, and now to his ears redden with trays of food on hand is Saturday at noon and about 30 little people plump for 3 to 6 years, applauded for its rich polenta with meat and tomato. Although today will not only apple flan for dessert, the kids are happy.

Most of them come at a good pace, you notice that enjoyed a morning full of activities. Ten minutes before the school opened, almost all were pure and ran forward and Piedra Buena Avenue, at the height of Eva Peron. As they entered, gave him a kiss and a hug to the teachers, had breakfast with vanilla and chocolate milk out into the yard, were waiting for a ball, a sandbox, several slides and a swing. About eleven entered the covered portion of the school and teachers were given sheets to disguise themselves. Jean Franco (6) asked to help him become a king who wore robes, Ana Paula (5) chose to be an Indian princess with sari and Gabriel (5) preferred to use the sheet as the layer of Batman. Setpoint change was clear: Discharged tensions in the courtyard, the 30 boys and 5 teachers beginning with the more creative.

Before ensabanados supermen, princesses and Batmans they had tired of his disguise, Professor Gerald Cid had already prepared the following game. It was a row of tables where the kids walked and then jumped to a mattress, yes, before flying each chose whether it was a bird, a plane flying or what. Almost simultaneously another teacher, Leandro Villa, two tables covered with a sheet, explained that it was a house and invited those who wished to inhabit. And when the boys began to want to change the game, Geraldine was already seated in a corner and sang "If I say skinny, skinny, fat, you say ...", what a chorus of children led by Martin Kogan other teachers, he replied: "Fat, fat, skinny." Meanwhile, chorus and chorus will come, the other three teachers acondicionaban two rooms, one beside the other, for two workshops before eating.

In the classroom on the left, Leandro told a story Feroz Mouse in a scene where this was made up to give more fear. At that point in the narrative, Geraldine and distributed paintings and encouraged him to imitate each protagonist and paint their faces in the mirror. If anyone needed help, gave them a hand.

In the right classroom, the teacher could not cope Eliana Euclid who preferred serving tempera paint on a sheet rather than on his face. Although the proposal was gently slide the brush and not mix colors, some found it more fun together and even paint with their hands ... And nobody challenged the contrary, teachers gave them more paint, taking note of what drew or helped to wash. Meanwhile, in a lateral, Mariana mentally evaluated the workshop, mending the broken crotch trousers Martin (5) and answered the hungry that she was about to eat. And is that after twelve, a rich tomato meat smell invaded and two classrooms.

So when Simon and Olga finally opened the doors of the room, it fills up quickly. Almost at the same speed that children occupy the outcrop some tables and chairs personal stories. For example, a boy who had been very restless all morning is pulled under a table, kick and do not want to eat. Another, aged 10 but weighs as one of 4, says he feels the stomach closed and not hungry. Malnourished, so the adults around him persuade him to accept another spoonful of polenta, "just one more, we champion, and I promise that after swallowing her tiny arm filled skeletal muscles. And next to the kitchen, at the end of a table, a princess of 5 years is hidden under a cap and thin pink corduroy food with the spoon, without looking up the dish. Does not talk, yell, or even request toileting. Answer the questions with audible monosyllables and a look of melancholy adult, it seems that only expected to finish the lunch, morning, day.

however, is suddenly open seat next to Martin, his favorite teacher, and she runs up there. "What do you do, Araceli?" He says as he lovingly touched the brim of his cap. Then she smiles. Smile, and her big eyes once again be filled with children. Smile, but the dish of polenta will be on the table, barely untouched, even though she was hailed as everyone when Rosario took the floor.

And then? Do they act that if these guys? Who knows, maybe some, but for most other hypotheses fit. The most comprehensive is that this band of little people that barely have their feet high in a particular way of thanking parents and teachers this programón Saturday. Let's see: this is a school wide, bright, warm and clean, where the only screaming is they, not adults. Also, and contrary to daily living in a village devastated in 2001 by the paco and drug trafficking, fights are resolved here speaking, knife in hand or throws. And finally, children and Julio Denis (3) live in this space as a paradise to be safe from beatings by his father.

But there is something as fundamental as this. In this school, one of 6 attached to the Children's Centers program of the Government of the City, "you can have a bad day and Mariana get through, notice how you can not draw that anguish that you have in your head, as happened to Jean Franco, and then she promises you that Eliana, who is professor of plastic, after eating will help you decipher what it is that (an ocean wave, something far more difficult than all those houses, soles and people who had painted so far). Ie: at the gates of Hidden City, surrounded by so much violence that some residents say this is liberated zone, a group of 30 children are 5 teachers themselves. Polenta is just a detail, important, but a detail. It is inevitable that the combo includes a lot of love for cooking and quality education. For short and chubby one is, so honestly deserves at least a round of applause when meal.

Seeking a better life
Fatima Andrea Barri want a better life than hers to Rosario (5) and Dylan (3), their children, hence leads to school on Saturdays. "A teacher would like to be Rosario planter "he explains. He added: "I also wanted to be a kindergarten teacher, the children loved me, then I fond of them." Bittersweet smiles as he refers to a dream that will not be possible. "Dylan says it will cartonero Like his father, he loves jumping on the bandwagon ... But he also says he will study in the garden. " Fatima explains the latter as the above: with both hands on the belly, where Jesus Bautista, his third son to be born. He yawns and says he returns home to prepare food to her husband, who this morning was up at 6 to go to the factory and the afternoon is on the cards. She speaks with the same smiling face that he gave his daughter, with eyes as lively as those inherited by his son, so yes, it speaks only a year older than both of them together: 19.


"is more relaxed, having fun"
"Gabriel takes a lot of affection. With love and patience, all you'll do: talking well, giving him a kiss, caressing ... Because he had a very hard when I was a baby. " Cristina Fretes speaks with a sweet little song and makes it clear that Formosa should leave immediately because he went to work at the Fair of Lugano. 57 years old and, although the grandmother of Gabriel Octavio (5), it really is his mother, the other, biological, abandoned him when he was 6 months and the father his son formed another family. Gabriel attends the Children's Centers program for three years and the balance, according to his mother-grandmother worked, is this: "I notice it much quieter, having fun ... After home tells me what he did: songs, games for teachers, everything. It makes you much good. "

Every Saturday, a new beginning
"It starts every Saturday," responds Raquel Giménez (66), psychologist, muralist and Children's Centers program coordinator. Answers referring to when to enroll in the 6 centers open, however, stretch the wire and carries the meaning of the phrase beyond. And he does it consolidate the project as a viable public policy in areas overwhelmed by social problems is testing his blood pressure, hence the end of that sentence summarizing his philosophy of life, and adds: "As Serrat sang, I always think today can be a great day. "

Today is May 19 and the big day happens in Retirement, where his team opened a center in the town 31. According to the coordinator has told, only 15 boys attended, but it gets Giménez positive: it is the sixth open and fight to set. The next step, he says, is more than clear: "You have to walk the town."

That means that teachers will go door to door to tell parents that this program offers an artistic and expressive space and the neighborhood. For some this means that their children access for the first time to school. For others, a place to leave and go quiet on Saturday to earn a few bucks. For all will be the opportunity to enjoy a personalized education. "We work with no more than 60 children per center, we focus on quality in teaching, not the massive thing," Giménez closed.

6 sites in 6 risk areas
These are the 6 centers opened by the program of the Government of the City of Buenos Aires for children between 3 and 6 years. Operate on Saturdays from 10 am to 14 pm:

• Kindergarten No. 10, Iriarte 3880 (Barracks), 4912 2862.
• Infant School No. 5, U.S. Tour and Antarctica Argentina (Withdrawal) 4313 0103.
• No Nursery School 5, Founrouge and Unanue (Villa Soldati), 4602 6075.

• Kindergarten No. 4, Varela 1425 (Bajo Flores), 4633 2011.
• Kindergarten No. 3, Piedra Buena and Eva Peron (Hidden City), 4687 0574.

Education Program
"Development of Boys Clubs and Children's Centres marks our goal of providing a school is always open. Although it shares the space of formal education, teachers and professionals responsible for the program offered every Saturday educational, recreational and artistic. The six child care centers are located in disadvantaged areas of the city, with a proposal and child care not necessarily in school, "said Minister of Education of the City
Ana Maria Clement.

Orchestras children with a history

Melina D'Angelo
left on the desk to explain how the violin practice at home. Professor Alejandro Behind Thau teaches the other 7 students the correct way to straighten your back and how to raise your elbow to get a sweet sound with the bow. Except Bobanach Aiel (5), all enrolled in 3rd or 4 th grade, year, year younger, have your partner's age: 9. According to Melina, weekday when it comes to elementary classes come and play for a while.

"You put your left hand and says while lifting the arm and the left palm upward almost to the height of the glasses. After you take a pencil with the other.
- And then?
-Tocas says sliding his bare right hand up to his equally bare left arm.
- What the violin? And the violin
you imagine. Melina

three weeks ago that he has discovered how much excited to learn music. Like most of his 40 classmates enrolled in the Children's Slaughterhouse Orchestra, this is your first contact with cello, clarinet, flute and violins. For now, the instruments remain in school Rome, home of the orchestra, but when everything settles the kids can take them provided even on vacation. Meanwhile, to reinforce what they learned on Saturday and dress rehearsals on Tuesday and Thursday at the instrument classes, Melina and company have to rely only is it redistributed wealth: imagination.

Imagination and long-term vision is what we showed in 1998 Espector Claudio and Beatrice Fuchs, founder of the Children and Youth Orchestras program, sponsored by the City Government. Now as then, the objective remains unchanged: "To break with the social stigma that children living in slums have no capacity to learn," he explained. With the launch on June 9, the orchestra Slaughterhouses are already 6-Retiro, Bajo Flores, Soldati and two in Lugano, the operating and more than 350 students between 6 and 18 who attend. At this time some guys who started the project up now Academic Orchestra of the Teatro Colon, or have entered the conservatory to study music career.

"This shows that the State, in addition to meeting the needs of the population, must think and offer educational policies. Who would think if children ask for a symphony orchestra? "The tint Espector and Fuchs introduced his reflection suggests that this pedagogical proposal seeks more social integration and equal educational opportunities for entertainment or training of musicians elite. For example, on Saturday when the band meets from 14.30 to 18.00, so important that students snacking as they understand that "the ropes heard when the flutes and clarinets make melody" as Facundo asked Ordóñez to the 21 instrumentalists of the orchestra class. In return, the guys give a lot, especially at 6 teachers who work with them.

"I learn as I teach them, then pick up my insecurities, and that forces me to constantly review what I know," says Ana de Marchi, a professor of cello and on the project since 1998. Something to remember, Guadalupe Dozo, who studied flute 7 years in Buenos Aires and 3 in Paris, and who says these guys need the same thing she had: "Good teachers se tomen el tiempo para enseñarlos”. La fórmula funciona y contagia ilusión. Es más: si la propia Melina D’Angelo persevera con su violín imaginario en casa y continúa con la orquesta, en unos años podrá contar que estos fueron sus inicios. Y como ella, el resto de sus compañeros.

POTENCIALIDAD

“Desde el arte, este proyecto logra que los chicos se sientan seres con subjetividad y seres dignos”, sostiene Leonor Machado, directora desde 1994 de la escuela Roma, situada en Cosquín y Montes. “Estos niños tienen unas potencialidades impresionantes. Depende de nosotros, teachers, get results, "assesses Machado from his 65 years and his experience with the school population of Hidden City and Los Perales. According to her, is so "happy that the orchestra is here", who wants to participate in events on the day of the pattern, on 29 August.

"We have to show the community what can be lost if care is not involved and the orchestra," he says. And so the pairing judge and music education: "In this school we train people who face the dangers of the town-the paco, violence, prostitution and crime, and they know what makes most sense for them. The orchestra gives our children more able to express themselves and to choose freely. "
