In this blog they will find a particular glance towards the new technologies. What are the NTICs? We understand like new technologies to the set of new tools that make possible the storage, processing and digitized transmission of information; they are tools that are gotten up to the traditional ones and that they offer new forms us to communicate to us becoming new supports that facilitate our interaction with diverse sources of intelligence. In a world of constant changes, where the NTICs fortifies and provides major services and maximum comfort; we cannot be other people's or to deny us to them.
The new technologies of the information, but known by their abbreviations in English NTI (New Technology Information) are part of our lives and are here and even more impressive it is than its evolution is vertiginous. It is necessary that we know all the express that changes the technology, the global process of the development of languages, programs, equipment, connectivity and regulations. The academic schools and institutions must be an enclosure in constant processed of update and innovation to prepare us for the outer world, a globalised world which we know like " The Global" Village;.

Before beginning, it would want to clarify my respect towards the opinions of colleagues, intervening companions and other people in the subject the exhibition of these thoughts and ideas with respect to the New Technologies of the Information and the Communication (Ntic' s) is only one opinion, which took to us to reflect on: what is the Ntic' s really? as what they serve to us, the Ntic' s, in our education? the investment is worth the pain of these Ntic' s in the Education? What are the Ntic' s really? The New technologies of the Information and the Communication are only computer tools and computer science that they process, they store, they synthesize, they recover and they present/display information represented in variable form. They are never going to happen to be more than a support, set of tools and/or channel for the treatment and access to the information. Like for example the digital slate (conformed by a PC and a projector), blogs, podcast and, by all means, the Web and wikis As it explains this extracted definition, but adapted, of an article of the Wikipedia (http://es.wikipedia.org/). I believe that it is clear that the Ntic' s will be still, neither the more nor the less, diverse and potential, communication tools. As which they serve to us, the Ntic' s, in our Education? The answer is depends. Then if, it depends much on the use that we give these tools. The use of the same can give the most important upset to our Education. And this thought not more than a simple one watched the past. They only think that one of the most important channels of the human growth (during the course of its history) was, and will always continue being, the Communication. From the beginning, rather before, of history and to today, the communication fulfilled one of the most important rolls, beyond the diverse aims that occurred to this means. That it had happened with the present present if the knowledge were not had, of a form or another one, “heredado��? during the course of history. Then we would be locked up in a true infinite circuit, where the past he is equal to the present and this resemblance to the future. It would not exist the fire, there would not be languages, you speak, nor to think about the writing. That it dehorns truth! But, by nature, the human being stands out to have the capacity to reason, this does not imply he always uses that it. Thanks to the reasoning that does to the same development of the human thought, he is that we are in this era of technological development; but also it is truth that thanks to the fact that we did not use always this reasoning, is that we have the present global imbalances. Sometimes he is not enough with having an idea, since without making of that idea a verb, never he is going to happen to be what is. Then, now we see the roll of the communication in our history. Doubt that the Education always depended, in its totality does not fit almost, of the communication like means. Therefore we determined (since the beginning of the decade of the 21st century) that the New Technologies of the Information and the Communication will comprise of the base, from now on, of the human knowledge. The investment is worth the pain of these Ntic' s in the Education? It is always necessary to consider that the Ignorance is more expensive than the Education. Of course, that always was worth and will be worth all those investments that help our Education, to advance a step more day to day. No matter how hard the results of these investments are seen in the long term; they are necessary to never finish in an infinite circuit.

LESSON 2
SHAKESPEARE: "To be, or not to be"
Romeo and Juliet

Act I.

Sampson and Gregory, servants to the Capulets and Abraham and Balthasar, servants to the Montague family start a street fight, which is joined by Benvolio (Montague) and Tybalt (Capulet). Escalus, the Prince of Verona who angrily learns of this fight, declares a death penalty for further feuding between the two families. Romeo we learn is lovesick; Rosaline, the object of his affections will not requite (return) his love. His friend Benvolio tells Romeo to look at other girls...

Meanwhile Capulet is keen for Paris to marry his daughter Juliet and plans a party to be held later that night. Romeo and friends decide to turn up uninvited, Romeo hoping to see Rosaline, whom he still pines for...

Lady Capulet discusses the idea of marriage to Paris with Juliet. Juliet keeps her options open. The Nurse wishes Juliet every possible happiness...

Meanwhile Mercutio attempts to cheer a lovesick Romeo up, telling him to be rough with love if need be.

At the Capulet's party, Romeo who is disguised by a masque (mask), falls in love with Juliet on sight. Capulet stops Tybalt from attacking Romeo at his party, telling him there will be other opportunities. Both Romeo and Juliet learn that they are each enemies of the other's family... A Prologue sung by a choir dramatizes the conflict both Romeo and Juliet feel between their love for one another and their loyalty to their respective families.

Act II.

Ignoring the danger, Romeo scales the Capulet's wall to be near Juliet, the woman he cannot forget... Unnoticed in Juliet's orchard, Romeo learns of Juliet's love for him. After declaring their feelings for each other, the two decide to marry. Juliet will send Romeo a messenger in the morning to make plans for their wedding...

The very next day, we meet Romeo's friend, Friar Laurence. He wonders how Romeo can forget Rosaline so quickly but agrees to marry the two since he hopes this marriage it will end the long running Montague / Capulet feud...

Romeo catches up with his friends Mercutio and Benvolio. Juliet's messenger, the Nurse, arrives and the wedding is set for later that day. The Nurse brings Romeo "cords" or ropes which will allow Romeo to climb into Juliet's bedchamber as her husband later that night... Act II ends with Romeo and Juliet's marriage.

NounsNouns are easy - right? Verbs change times from past to present to future, but a noun is just a noun. Still, now that you are at the Intermediate level there are a few things about nouns that you should remember. In this first exercise we are going to review -
Uses of the noun.

1. Countable and uncountable nouns.






2. Gerunds.






3. Proper names.






4. Using nouns

The main uses of nouns that we will look at today are the subject, object, possessive, indirect object, and complement. Yes, there are other uses as well, like the vocative. But first, let's look at subject, object, possessive, indirect object, and complement.
Subject
The subject is usually a noun. (But not always. Sometimes it is a pronoun or a gerund instead, but that is for later.) When you are writing English, you will find that putting subject-verb-object is a very good style to use. This is because the subject is the part of the sentence that usually does the action of the verb. The subject usually comes at the beginning of the sentence (as it does in this sentence, or instance!) so don't change it unless you have a good reason.
Object
"Objects" in English has two meanings. It can mean things as in this sentence "balls are round objects"; or it can mean that the word (usually a noun) has been affected by the verb performed by the subject. ow! That last part was a bit complicated, but it's just a very grammatical way of saying subject-verb-object. We can say subject-verb-object, like this - "Bill hit Mary", for example. Bill is a horrible little boy, and he is the subject of the sentence. Mary is the object of the sentence, because Bill performed the verb "to hit" on her, and it hurt!
Possessive
Possessives are nouns that introduce another noun. "Mary" is a noun, and we can introduce her mother as "Mary's mother". The possessive means that one noun "has" another. We can also introduce the possessive with "of" - for example "the mother of Mary". Notice that with the 's the noun that "has" another noun comes first; when we use the " ...of" construction it comes second. With plurals, the 's becomes s' ("the boys' mother" is describing two boys or more, "the boy's mother" describes one child.)
Indirect object
Some nouns are objects of a verb which is intransitive. Intransitive verbs do not have a direct object, and we use a preposition before the indirect object. "Dream" is a verb that does not normally have an object. You cannot dream somebody or something, you can dream of somebody, and that person is the indirect object of dream. Sometimes we need direct and indirect objects to know what is going on. "Bill gave a present to Mary" has Bill as the subject, gave as the verb, and a present is the object. (Much better, Bill!). Mary gets the present, but we cannot say she is the object, because Bill gave the present, not her. That is why you can't use "I said you" because "say" can not have an object. You must use "I said to you."
Complement
Finally, some verbs like the verb "to be" often do not have an object, even an indirect one. Instead of subject-verb-object, the nouns around the verb are subject- verb- complement. Earlier I said "Bill is a horrible little boy". Here Bill is the subject but boy is not the object of the verb, instead it is a complement of the subject noun, which is Bill.
Remember, with an English noun the ending does not change to tell you if it is a subject, object or complement. You have to decide from its position in the sentence.
Using countable and uncountable nouns.
Here I will quickly explain what countable and uncountable nouns are, and we will look at the different grammar for each type.Countable nouns are as their name says - countable. You can count them. How many rooms in your house? Count them. How many brothers do you have? Count them (and remember that 0 is also a number!)Uncountable nouns can't be counted. How many coffee in a cup? How many air in this room? How many interest are you feeling in this exercise? Uncountable nouns are often liquids, like water or tea, feelings like happiness, or ideas like freedom. (And remember that to the English money is uncountable - we count pounds and pennies.)
Uncountable nouns are usually singluar. So "coffee is bitter", but "the cups are dirty". When describing amounts, we use many for countable nouns, and much for uncountable nouns in questions and negatives. (For example: Did you have much trouble understanding that? Not too much I hope. But not Well, maybe you had much trouble understanding it.)But we can use a lot (of) almost any time. So to be safe, this is the one to use. (There were a lot of cars in town, but we did not have a lot of trouble finding a lot of shops selling a lot of soap. Do you need a lot of time to read this?)Finally, remember that most uncountable nouns can be counted in a different way. Water is uncountable, but litres of water can be counted. We can also count loaves of bread, or packets of sugar. But no-one has found a way to count happiness or fun.
Gerunds.
Later, we have a whole lesson on gerunds, so here we will only mention that they are verbs that you use as nouns. In many other languages, the infinitive is used instead. So you might say "I like to read". where an Englishman will say "I like reading". Because English is a very flexible language, both uses are correct. But English sentences must have a subject, and subjects can't be verbs. And it is easier to say "Smoking is forbidden" than to say "It is forbidden to smoke". Remember: there is a big difference between gerunds which are like nouns and present participles which are like adjectives. Don't think of them just as "-ing" words. In grammar they are completely different!
Proper nouns.
Proper nouns are names. In English if it is a name, you write it with a capital letter. Notice the capital E in English. For English speakers, nationalities are names, and countries are names. Cities are names too. (Joe comes from New Brunswick in the United States. He is American.) We also consider dates as proper nouns, but not numbers. (Wednesday the seventh of August.)
Nouns from verbs and adjectives.
Sometimes words have the same idea, but are said differently, depending on their type. So you have "high" (adjective) and "height" (noun). Sometimes English people just use the verb or adjective and make it into a noun by changing the suffix. So "happy" (adjective) becomes "happiness" (noun). A very common suffix for this is "-ment", as in "government, statement, astonishment", and so on. Also we use "-er" to signigy one who does the verb. So teachers teach, drivers drive motor cars, and engineers work with engines.
