Blogging Blogging
I've been thinking this evening about the discussion on the presentation day. I do not know how is people so afraid about connecting things, but for me comes by itself. I think the blog or learning diary is really good idea to reflex about the topics on the course because you can do it at home whenever it comes to your mind and without the worries of being wrong!! It's just your oppinion!!! I really like this method, not for the teacher more for the writer him/herself!! So let's keep on blogging!!
Time to review
Well this is almost gone already, so I think is time to review. What I have learned in this course?? Good question, dificult answer. Is difficult becuase I learnt lots of new things, so I do not know from where I should start.
First of all, I think this course has help me to grow up as a proffesional. I hardly belive that an engineer should be multidisciplinar proffesional so that , we can solve the problems of others easily. During this course I had to express myself in terms of another science, not only technically, which I think is really good for me. On the other hand I'm improving my skills on business, that is good knowledge for my future career.
I found networking really interesting beacuse is based on the dynamic of team work, basically the same I've been working with (software development) and I though that in business that was not used. I realized that computer science and business are closely related, on contrary I was thinking because I could find lots of relations between my own experiences in my line of work and the topics on the lectures.
Then, I have to say that I improve my skills on thinking critically, and on rellating all the ideas that I have stored in my brain... In conclussion, I'm more than a hard drive and I can use my brain for something else than keeping info....
I think it has been a great choice!!

My "Group Report"
I would like to start this entry saying THANK YOU to the firm that helped me to make the "group report".
The study of a real firm has been really good tool for applying the knowledge I gain during this course. It has help me to think critically and to link my knowledge in this and other areas of life. I realize that the ideas proposed in the course are really going on in the real world of firm environment, and I really appreciate that , because my experience is that most of the things I have learnt in University are simply the theoretical base, and I had to learn how thing are done in the real world by myself.
About my findings, I would like to point out the idea of embededness again. I find out that fear is the biggest barrier for the network development. But, not in the way of changing minds or methods, I think that what most scares firms is the threat of be used. I think this is closed to the first idea of the course, how the things we do affect the people around, and of course with the idea of trust. Human being are supicious for nature, so the challenge now is how to avoid this feeling and to leave out of the networking environment those firms that are not trustable.
