Tanya Ascencio Lino B 2-1 Yachay Tech University Urcuquí, Imbabura, Ecuador December 8, 2016 Dear Portfolio Reader, My name is Tanya Ascencio. I appreciate your interest in my English Language Portfolio where I demonstrate my interest and performance as a student at this level. My work consists in essays and oral presentations about education art and sciences. My first classes about English language were at the school; when I was 6 years old. However, these classes and the rest of classes in high school were always basics. This means that, when I came here in leveling course, I only knew basic vocabulary and simple structures of sentences. And, for that, I began in the first level. Now, I know many things more, learned along of six levels. Particularly this last level, I have learned to improve my presentations and to write essays with topics and thesis more specific. In fact my first assignment was a response essay where I wrote about self-­‐ education. I must say that my principal objective is to have an interesting topic but I always thought in topics too general. It was hard for me to improve. In addition, I had another big trouble: I did not think about my audience. In this way, I developed my essay without knowing if the audience followed my ideas. Finally, I got a better way to write practicing. Indeed, I practiced ending my response essay and doing new assignments as the literary analysis, interpretation essay, argumentative essay and the final research paper. I had some problems of time writing my literary analysis in class; but, to the following essay in class, the argumentative essay, I was more prepared because I had read so much and defined my main ideas. So for my final research paper, I tried to apply the experiences obtained from my mistakes of previous writings. Thus, I learned to focus on my topic, think in the knowledge of the reader, and to practice. On the other hand, I learned one important thing to improve my presentations. I realize that many images in my slides can help me at the moment to present my topic. In this six level, the topics of presentations were about art and science. So I had many materials to get attention from the audience (teacher and classmates). Furthermore, the chosen topics were totally interesting for me. For example, one topic was the relationship between science and art; and I read so much about it. I love to work in a topic that likes me! Another learned thing was to work in group. In the beginning, I did not understand my classmates because we are very different. However, after of sharing ideas, we found something in common to develop our topic about a masterpiece: Surrealism like us! In this way, we chose “The Persistence of Memory” painted by Salvador Dalí. Finally, we did a good job looking information; and, again, I enjoyed reading.


So, the key was to find something in common; because then, is easier a good communication. I think that, as a writer and as a speaker, my strong point is the organization. Because I always try to make clear the points I will argue and when I will. As a user of the English language I learned that it is possible to acquire a new and broad knowledge with the practice. In this way, I get satisfaction when my acquired skills allow me to read posters or watch movies in another language. After a good presentation the audience continues to be interested in the subject matter. Therefore, they ask the presenter for extra information to the final of class. This happened to me, so I think that, although not to a large extent, the effect of my presentations can influence the mind of someone else. I think that although some people deny it, words have a great influence on people and their effect causes them to continue to try something or give up. What I mean is that in the course of the course I have received advice that has helped me to improve a mistake. I think that I have improved my essays and my presentation because now is easier to write and read in this language. Now I can understand words and ideas. Respectfully,

Tanya Ascencio Lino


Response essay


The Perspective of Life from People who Practice Self-Education. Â Tanya Ascencio Lino Yachay University of Experimental Technology and Research


The Perspective of Life from People who Practice the Self-Education. When I graduated from high school, all my friends were talking about only one thing; they wanted to continue their university studies. When someone asked them why, their answers were the same, "to be someone in life". Unfortunately my thinking was the same, but now I think that this idea was imposed on us by parents and by society. Recalling those days, I would liked to have someone to tell me what I will write in this essay, what I have learned from the experiences of others, what I have learned about the world and true education. This is we do not need a certificate proving a level of study; actually our own knowledge and the application thereof are the best way to show how much we know. And I agree with several things that Till Gross said in his conference Forget University? 4 steps to design your own education; in this way I think that there are three necessary things to achieve it: passion, show that you are capable and to have the wish to keep learning. Passion to study something we like or to do something that motivates us, passion is the engine of success. For example, Till H. Gross is a young man with a passion for psychology and following this passion "He took his education in his own hands...with mind blowing success."(Gross, 2014). Now he continues to fulfill his dream to learn everything about the field of psychology. Like Gross we have the option to choose what we want to do because when the process is hard the passion we feel for what we do will make us persevere. And certainly this is not tied to pass certain subjects they teach in college. In fact, Einstein already said it: we are all geniuses, but if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid. According to the article Don't Buy The Hype, College Education Is Not An Investment "…success always depended on personal performance rather than educational pedigree."(Leef, 2013, p.8). This personal performance is a way to showing


the ability you have in your chosen field. In a similar way, Gross expressed it in TEDTalk, "I believe the key to a most fulfilled life is courage and commitment. Courage to push past your fears and commitment to your values." So, once chosen our way the next step is to give everything of us, to implement what we have learned and excel in what we know to do. All this is part of the created person from his or her own decisions; that is, the person you wanted to be, with or without college degrees. Some real examples of this are: Steve Jobs, Bill Gates, Ellen Degeneres, Oprah Winfrey... I could give many examples of people like them who got success without following a university career; they had only very clear what they wanted be and do. Â The independent study gives people the opportunity to learn about the issues they choose - in depth and at their own pace. In this way they never get tired and they are eager to know. In fact, if you study what you want, there are always something to improve, skills to acquire and improve and goals to achieve. This is a consequence of our first point: the passion. In addition, Thomas Edison said he never failed, he has just found 10,000 ways that will not work; this means that people who love what they do can see failures as ladders to success. So, someone who is self-taught loves to learn because it begins to see life from another perspective, as a series of steps to achieve your goal. Â In conclusion, Self-Education is a new way to see life. Passion, show our capacity and the wish to keep learning are facts that we can see often in the human history, reflected in great personages and they are real evidence that it is a good way to follow. Moreover, as human beings, we have always felt preferences and these are our passions. If a university career does not offers you what you want, why not be autodidact? Then all is focused to have passion for your choice, which will take you to want to keep learning to show the world what you can do.

Literary Analysis


Behind the Story of An Hour

Many writers use unexpected elements in their stories to keep to readers interested for their writings. The story of An Hour, written by Kate Chopin explores the thinking and feelings of a young woman who receives the new oh her husband’s death and she begins to think about her life and herself. From that, the author creates no common situations that make of her text a contrast of emotions; for that, she uses an unexpected behavior of the protagonist, changes in the mood of the story, and an ironic end. First of all, the story describes an unexpected behavior of her protagonist that it is the consequence of her feelings; introducing to the lector too in the unexpected. Thus, when she says “free! Body and soul free!”, the lector can feel a great contrast between death of someone and freedom. Consequently, these unexpected elements make that the lector continues reading.

Second of all, the author changes the mood constantly; and this create more contrast. For example, in the beginning the story was sad but with the feelings from the protagonist it changes: and the story becomes exciting. She say to her sister “Go away. I am not making myself ill” No; she was drinking in a very elixir of life. Through that open window”. (Chopin, 1894). This creates many non-common situations.

Finally, Chopin writes an ironic final that changes all. This final gives to the text the maximum contrast. On the one hand, the text says that the husband of the protagonist is not dead; This is already a big change. On the other hand, this news affected the protagonist so much that, in the end, whoever dies is her. This type of


reading is able to leave the reader impressed when feeling the emotional impact of the own protagonist. It can even leave the reader wanting to continue reading making the writer interesting. In other words, the end engages the reader as well as good content. In conclusion, the short story written by Kate Chopin is interesting for the reader by the unexpected elements. These are uncommon situations where there is contrast of emotions, unusual behaviors of the characters especially the protagonist and an unexpected end. In this way the author keeps alive the interest from beginning to end.

Interpretation essay


The Persistence of Memory Ascencio Lino Tanya Katiuska Chancay Ortega Hugo Kenneth Pilicita Guanochanga Luis Estalin Yachay University of Experimental Technology and Research


The Persistence of Memory “Surrealism is destructive, but it destroys only what it considers to be shackles limiting our vision.” -­‐Salvador Dalí. The Persistence of Memory was born in a world where the surrealism was opening its own road. Also known as 'Soft Watches', this painting is a famous masterpiece created in 1931 by the Spanish painter Salvador Dalí. It has only 24.1 by 33cm; and currently it is in the MoMA, Museum of Modern Art, of New York. Dalí expressed his personality through his art. In fact, The Persistence of Memory is one of the most controversial works of art because of the surrealist style used by Dalí. This is visible in three ways: The way the author related the surrealism to all areas of his life, an evident influence of Sigmund Freud in the method of paranoiac-­‐critical that Dalí used, and symbolism behind this painting about time and space influenced by Einstein's Theory of Relativity. Salvador Dalí is the most recognized representative of European surrealism born on May 11, 1904, in Figueres, Spain. He was extraordinary precocious artist; he would entered the world of to the world of painting Impressionism with only 12 years. Then he said “I will be a genius, and the world will admire me. I may be despised and misunderstood, but I’ll be a genius...” (C Jutge, 2005). In 1929, he meets Gala, his wife and muse; then painted his most important works where develops his obsessions: sex, soft and putrid state of matter. This works were: The Great Masturbator, The Enigma of Desire and The Persistence of Memory. Some art critics say The Persistence of Memory depicts a dream state, where "the distorted clocks don't have any power in the dream world and are melting away because of


that."(Shabi, 2013). Another peculiar detail is the way Dali uses light to communicate ideas. Dalí reflected his own life and thoughts in The Persistence of Memory as part of the surrealism. Dalí´s autobiographical material and childhood memories represent many times as ready interpreted symbolism that he used in his paintings to give to them a deeper meaning. In this case, his obsession about death, decomposition, and decay permeate enhances his closeness to psychoanalytic theories, and mixing it with his extravagant personality, he made his masterpiece: The persistence of memory (The Art Story, n.d.). Because of the understanding about the human mind Dalí was ready to release to the world his own soul in his paintings, in special in his masterpiece. Even, the name of his masterpiece was only sarcasm from Dalí to give to it painting a darker meaning, and it painting gave him the privilege of being recognized around the world. In addition, Dalí was the pioneer of the paranoid-­‐critical method to represent his way of perceiving reality. It method have a huge influence of Freud's psychoanalysis, who developed in deeply the unconscious world what it is easily denoted in The persistence of memory. The whole ambition in the pictorial domain of Dalí is to materialize the images of his concrete irrationality with the most imperialist fury of precision (Dali, Salvador, and David Gascoyne, 1935). According to Martin Ries (2008), the deep perspective in this picture suggests time past, with the viewer deserted and lost in infinity. Thereby, this picture makes overcome the subconscious of viewers questioning what reality is, achieving countless interpretations for each one. For example, the time is the key to establish a relationship between the real world and the irrational world through of the


symbolic language of the subconscious, and it has been achieved as consequence of the paranoid-­‐critical method.

Finally, the theory of the relativity of Einstein was a new form to see the world for Dali. The painting has a deep relationship with this theory because there is a constant symbolism on soft and melting watches in the painting. “The soft clocks are an unconscious symbol of the relativity of the time and of the space, that is to say, a surrealist meditation on the collapse of our concept of an established cosmic order.” (Ades, 1974). The theory of relativity states that there is no time that has universal validity. In this way, each of these three soft clocks indicates a different hour, between 6 and 7 o'clock in the afternoon, insinuating the relativity of the concept time. In addition, the clocks, such as memory, as his memory, is have softened by the passage of the time. Thus, everything is ephemeral and fleeting except the landscape and rocks of the cliff. In conclusion, The Persistence of Memory is a very controversial painting due to various aspects such as the obsessions pursuing to Dalí because he reproduce his life and the way in which he perceives the life in his art. Another point taken is the influence of Sigmund Freud in the paranoiac-­‐critical method; that makes to spectators overcome and explore their subconscious. The last point is that Dali has a perspective different about the time that agrees to the theory of the relativity, which says that the time not is a measure universal. Based on all those points before mentioned it is possible to have several interpretations from the painting. In this way, interpretation is relative by the landscape, the method paranoiac-­‐critical, the perception of the reality, the step of the time and the


immortality. Surely what Dali wanted is that each one did his own interpretation according to his experiences and obsessions of his world inside through shapes and silhouettes unimaginable and with an informative content unmatched in The Persistence of Memory.

Argumentation essay


Legalizacion of Drugs as a Strategy What does a person when a big rock block their way? If the rock is too heavy to move, it is necessary to find another way to cross it; that is, another strategy. In the same way, if prohibiting and penalizing the drug use of drugs are methods that have already been applicated and they have failed, why to follow with them? According to the article Legalize it all, Richard Nixon declared the first “war on drugs” and set the country on the wildly puritive and counter productive path it still pursues” (Baum, 2016). On the other hand, the legalization of drugs offers a better way to face problems generated by drugs. First, because legalization would allow the use of medicinal properties of drugs. Second, because prohibition and penalization generate more expenses than a good regulation. And lastly because legalization could change the current opinion of discrimination against consumers. .

First of all, the use of drugs as a medicinal method is a reality. In fact, the use of

marijuana for treatment of people with cancer is well known and is not the only one. Stronger drugs as heroin and LSD are also used medicinally in treatments against alcoholism, as more efficient analgesics or in psychological disorders. In addition, the legalization has indirect ways to benefit human health and Portugal is an example of this. The percentage of HIV victims has been reduced “Because addicts can now legally obtain sterile syringes” (Baum, 2016) Second of all, prohibition and penalization generate more expense than a good regulation. In fact, in the mentioned article, Dan Baum says that 40 billion dollars a year is spent in enforcing the prohibition law and it is easier for the government "Education, counseling, treatment, distribution, Regulation, price fixing and taxation ... than the suppression of the immense black markets and the violence and corruption that come with it”(2016). In addition, income would be obtained from this new market duly


regulated and under control. Therefore, the most important fact in this point is the possibility to implement an effective control. Finally, the legalization would change the current opinion that discriminates consumers; the same that leaves them out of any governmental and social help. For example, a young man who consumes drugs and knows that he is beginning to lose control, does not feel secure to seek medical treatment for the danger of imprisonment and the criminal status of consumers. In this way, drug addiction, when it is personal, should not be a police issue but a medical issue; where the patient has the opportunity to restore his health. In addittion, inside prission, consumers have more probability to become addicts. In conclusion, the legalization of drugs is a better option than to follow creating laws to penalizate its consume; because it offers a new perspective and benefits. These are; several medicinal properties from drugs and other onsequences to a good health; less expenses and more income from drugs market very well regulated; and, help to consumers, giving them the option of recuperation without be treated as criminals. Thus, it is possible to cross the big barreir of drugs, considerating the legalization as a strategy.

Final research project essay


The Influence of Sexist attitudes in Children’s Books Tanya Ascencio Yachay University of Experimental Technology and Research


Abstract Children's stories and picture books are a very effective tool, which help parents and teachers to transmite, in an easy and clear way, the teachings that manifest the different stories. In this way, the main objective is that children assimilate values and principles difficult to understand at a young age. Nevertheless, the classic and highly widespread stories suggest to the little ones certain behavior, that currently, is considered sexist. For example, the gentle or of victim attitude of princesses of stories, whose main goal seems to be to marry or be rescued by a prince. This is why the present essay shows the presence of stereotypes in the mentioned teaching materials and how they influence in a significant way in the children's behavior and in their way of seeing the world. It also emphasizes the importance and benefits of choosing the most appropriate children's books for a good education tolerant and without social prejudices that leave aside sexist attitudes. Keywords: children’s stories, picture books, education, stereotypes, values, behavior, sexist.


The Influence of Sexist Attitudes in Children’s Books Imagine that the first book read by a child determines all his life. What book should be? The majority of traditional families think that the stories and picture books are oriented to a better world full of moral values. And that is the reason why a good present for a child is a childish story or a picture book. But this is only one aspect of these materials of early education. The teaching behind them reach beyond. According to The International Research Society for Children's Literature, “From generation to generation, adult writers around the world communicate various visions of life, values, and desires to young readers through children’s literature…” (IRSCL, 2016). So, this is the situation, the vision of children could be influenced for the vision of someone else. In reality, this is a way to educate; the problem is when writers communicate a sexist attitude in their stories or in the same way in the picture books. Then young children easily assume this stream of information in the form of stereotypes. As consequence, early education must take into account the implications that sexist attitude in children's stories and picture books cause in children, who take them as role models and imitate them. For instance, most children assimilate, from stories, a social structure and patterns of behavior. Also, the content of children's picture books are bearers of macho and feminist stereotypes. Finally, non-­‐sexist books can produce positive changes in self-­‐concept of children and their attitudes.

Most children assimilate, from stories, a social structure and patterns of

behavior according to a sexist attitude. In fact, the books that children read and that are read to them have psychosocial uses at a time when children are


continually constructing ideas from information around them and assimilating new knowledge with previous knowledge (Elliker, 2005). This means that the kind of received literature influences in great proportion in their perception about how should be their behavior. In this way, if children's book expresses an impartial vision of the world, this is captured and assimilated by the child who develops an impartial way to think. In particular, many of these stories follow a pattern of inequality and impartiality with regard to the role of men and women; where male figures dominate the majority of children's books and female figures are relegated to submissive behavior or of victim. Indeed, in his article Gender Issues in Young Children's Literature, Ya-­‐Lun Tsao says that male characters were more often described as potent, powerful, and more active than female characters (2008). For example, in classic fairy tales a prince must prove to be the bravest strong and witty, saving a princess guarded by a dragon or who has eaten a poisoned apple. Likewise, the prince falls in love with the princess for her sweetness and ingenuity; she is usually a character full of kindness. In addition, in many stories the only energetic female characters are interpreted by witches or servants of evil who, curiously, end up really poorly. Thus, the amount of sexist facts in stories, which become teachings for children, is notorious. Even the happy endings with splendorous weddings are a sample of this; since, for a feminine personage, her existence full of sufferings ends up when linking her life to the one of his hero.

The content of children's picture books are bearers of macho and feminist

stereotypes, as indicated by a research conducted by L'Association Européenne Du Côté Des Filles, a French non-­‐governmental organization whose aim is the fight against sexism. The investigation found that pictures show a male vision of world;


where are assigned physical and psychological characteristics according sex, skills and social status. In this way, illustrations often represented man in the role of greater hierarchy. For example, male work is shown to be the best paid and the most prestigious, while the mothers represented had a lacking professional life or they had in lesser importance occupations. These concepts are represented graphically as male figures always going to work and arriving with the necessary for the family; and feminine figures in the background, cleaning the house or attending the children. For children, that the dad doesn't do those things of cleaning and care, will look like most normal of the world and they assimilate it as the reality. In the same way, in a labor scenario men are seen as presidents or managers, and women as secretaries or helpers. These images inevitably enter the minds of children and, if the phrase "a picture is worth a thousand words" is taken as true, the caused effect will be more powerful than any other teaching. Another feature seen in the pictures of children's books is the use of glasses that, in various contexts, are associated with intelligence and seriousness. For example, the wisest character in a story is usually illustrated surrounded by books and using glasses. As a result, only parents are represented with them, unless they are grandmothers or spinsters. Non-­‐sexist books can produce positive changes in self-­‐concept of children and their attitudes. In fact, May Narahara in his article, Gender stereotypes in children's picture books, found children who read non-­‐sexist stories over a sustained period of time reduced sex-­‐role stereotyping (1998). This shows that it is only necessary to change the teaching material for children to create important changes in the development of their thinking with less stereotyped attitudes. For


instance, the article mentions reading of stories about people who fought sex discrimination, which turned out to be a good influence to extend the perspective of children about jobs allowed for both sexes. Consequently, the same tools used to induce sexist attitudes can become the best way for guiding children toward a teaching without gender limitations. On the other hand, positive results are so clear and numerous that many schools and families have begun to promote this kind of readings because they have found another benefit more personal and deep for children. This is, according to Narahara, that non-­‐ sexist books produce positive changes in self-­‐concept, attitudes, and behavior (1998). This is because children have a broader vision to choose their way of being and stop feeling limited by certain conduct that, in a traditional thinking, they would be the right way to being. As a result they develop the confidence necessary to express themselves according to their interests. Thus, non-­‐ sexist books become books capable of challenging children and making them feel better, developing their own impartial and tolerant thinking. This will enhance their development on several levels for example, a social relationship more respectful with children of the same or the opposite sex. There is some truth to the argument of Sonya Nedovic, early childhood educator, who says that exploring stories also helps children to learn the difference between ‘real’ and ‘make-­‐believe’ and might help develop his own ideas (2015). The author refers to the fact that the books suggest a starting point that involves different themes for children to develop their ideas with the help of their wide imagination, and in this way they distinguish what is possible, that is, reality. However most children's books go beyond a simple suggestion. In fact, the argument does not take into account the nature and the features developed in the


majority children’s stories and pictures books. For example, it does not contemplate values differentiated according to sex, which are transmitted by the protagonists of the stories. That means, the protagonists have quite defined characteristics that suggest at the same time an equal defined behavior, and that generally are the same sexist attitudes that were described previously. Thus, the final suggestion that reaches children is to follow this sexist thinking. In conclusion, one of the most important preoccupations that fathers and educators should consider is to promote in children's books an attitude non-­‐sexist. This is because classic stories for children and picture books are a source of information and ideas for young children. Children develop behaviors from such information, which creates a strong influence from an early age. If there are stereotypes behind these didactic materials, an impartial view of the world and behavior will not be possible. Similarly, picture books with non-­‐sexist content help to eliminate stereotypes and increase children's chances of growing up as open and tolerant citizens. Thus, children's gender attitudes can be positively changed by an appropriate literature with the use of materials that promote gender-­‐neutral attitudes. In addition, not defining "appropriate" behavior allows children their own choice according to their ideas and feelings.
