      Education has been embraced by great societies as a way to overcome poverty,  to carry out traditions, values and to raise up the best people. Once a philosopher named Pythagoras said "Do not talk a little on many subjects, but much on a few" and that fits presecily my thoughts on how education should be embraced by the government of Costa Rica . This quote carries out the meaning in which I want to concentrate because since the opening of boundaries on education  which let the private Universities be opened  around 1965   education has made great improvements, and  as a result,  in the present day there are many professionals that have great and powerful ideas to be applied in  technology, medicine and other fields like economics engenering and so on; however, the education is not equal to everyone and that is exactly the challenge that  Cost Rica faces for the 21 first century. Yesterday class, Professor Cindy, brought an interesting format in the way the class was handled. She made two large groups and made a debate. The topic was”Should Technology artifacts be used in schools". Our group has a variety of participants that come from all levels some are finishing their course others this is the first year, and me I only 8 subjects away to finish the first part of an ongoing process. I started the debate but I felt against the arguments of the other group, and Marco came out with a good counter claim. In spite of this Daniel ,who is finishing this major this year, stood up and saved our team and raise up the victory  for us. I have to rescue from him his poise and tranquility,his professionalism. Although one can be very smart one have to be emotionally intelligent also, so he  thought me a lot, and I left  the class with a  sweet feeling  that made think I had gained a higher level of education due to  the debate that professor Cindy made us do. So thanks to him our team won the debate ,and thanks to him I learn an important lesson that afternoon. Our professor assigned us to make an essay about the same topic, and during this week I will do some research about it, so i may  come up with a good essay. Thanks God for the opportunity to study.
