'' and based on this definition I will tell you a little of how globalization changed my life, and what has been the result until today, while I think of these words...]]> 2022-11-17 21:11:35 UTC https://padlet.com/amonsalvo89/wjd06js49l8gdkw7/wish/2388991480 amonsalvo89 https://padlet.com/amonsalvo89/wjd06js49l8gdkw7/wish/2388995527 Approximately 13 years ago (2009), I remember that in my house there was no internet, or anything like that, my parents used the famous Black Berry, very nice and new cell phones for that time, so our only way to ''connect'' and know what was happening outside in the vast world, was the television, my parents did not need the internet and therefore there was no need to have computers in the house, at that time the family and social environment (friends) was mediated by phone calls, or personal visits, and everything was very ''normal'' something ''standard'' for the cultural parameters of the time.]]> 2022-11-17 21:16:37 UTC https://padlet.com/amonsalvo89/wjd06js49l8gdkw7/wish/2388995527 amonsalvo89 https://padlet.com/amonsalvo89/wjd06js49l8gdkw7/wish/2389002023 My social sphere before entering the digital world was common, going to school, getting good grades or at least what was necessary to pass (mathematics), personally I did not like languages although in my school there were subjects like English and French, at that time I thought it was not necessary to learn another language, Spanish was enough to lead a good life and although I was attracted to other cultures, I still had no knowledge or interaction with any of them in any aspect, except for the obligatory learning of English at school, by my parents there was no need to learn a foreign language, so everything was going well for the moment.]]> 2022-11-17 21:23:54 UTC https://padlet.com/amonsalvo89/wjd06js49l8gdkw7/wish/2389002023 amonsalvo89 https://padlet.com/amonsalvo89/wjd06js49l8gdkw7/wish/2389005731 Approximately 2 years later (2010), my father one day arrived in the car and under the trunk a computer, that was the first smart device focused on digital navigation that came home, at first I thought it was for personal use of my parents so it did not impact me much, but then I was told that it was for all of us to use it, but especially my father, because in his work they wanted to implement accounting models and digital contracts, but also the computer would be helpful for my homework and academic work.]]> 2022-11-17 21:28:21 UTC https://padlet.com/amonsalvo89/wjd06js49l8gdkw7/wish/2389005731 amonsalvo89 https://padlet.com/amonsalvo89/wjd06js49l8gdkw7/wish/2389009900 I have no idea how it happened, maybe it is something born of this generation, but when I realized I already knew how to surf the internet and I could also download games, the main purpose for which I used the computer. At first they were Spanish games, but little by little I started to investigate some games of my interest until eventually I got them and the one that made the difference was Need For Speed World, that was the game that I have dedicated more time in my life. On the other hand, my parents began to see the need to upgrade so they changed their mobile devices, now they had smart phones that for the time were very advanced (Iphone), the need to upgrade as a family to a more modernized context was already palpable in the environment, it was time to move forward so it was very normal to see my parents wondering how to use the functions of their cell phones and investigating how to use the new digital technologies, it was interesting to see the need to learn beyond what was necessary, to learn something that was not in the books, to open up to a new stage and to accept the cultural changes that this brought to society.]]> 2022-11-17 21:33:40 UTC https://padlet.com/amonsalvo89/wjd06js49l8gdkw7/wish/2389009900 amonsalvo89 https://padlet.com/amonsalvo89/wjd06js49l8gdkw7/wish/2389015560 From the moment I downloaded this game my life changed, since I dedicated a lot of time to stay connected, the game consisted of an open world, where the focus was cars, but the most innovative thing was the connection system since in a server you could find people from anywhere in the world, especially North Americans. Something very curious is that the game was in English by default, and in those days I did not know any English, although in school they taught it to us, so I accepted the challenge of learning to play in that language, and as time went by I realized how interesting and functional it was to learn a foreign language, in this case English, since it allowed me to navigate throughout the game and at the same time communicate by chat with all the foreign people who played, in the same way my parents also began to be interested in English, since many pages they visited on their devices were in that language and at the same time we saw how in the country began the propaganda to take English as a second language.]]> 2022-11-17 21:41:01 UTC https://padlet.com/amonsalvo89/wjd06js49l8gdkw7/wish/2389015560 amonsalvo89 https://padlet.com/amonsalvo89/wjd06js49l8gdkw7/wish/2389022753 Today I can say that the experience of living the change to digital 2. 0 is fascinating, through the web I have learned many things, I have learned about other cultures and I have experienced the interaction with other cultures through technology, no doubt globalization changed my vision of the world, as well as that of my friends and family, now I like to learn other languages, my parents every day adjust more to the new digital methods, they are learning English, and they are interested in learning about other cultures even when before they thought it was not necessary, all because globalization ''forces'' us to relate to other cultures, and thanks to the fact that long ago my father decided to bring globalization home, today I am more open to change and to live with differences and to recognize that every day there is something new to learn even if it does not seem necessary.]]> 2022-11-17 21:49:49 UTC https://padlet.com/amonsalvo89/wjd06js49l8gdkw7/wish/2389022753
