Obstacles Are in the Attitude
Peña R., Carol. [email protected]
Life poses many obstacles. For me maybe, an obstacle could be a difficult course at the university, for some other
person a divorce, financial problems, or a disease. However, not all things are equal, and it depends on who lives
each situation. Attitude represents the difference between leaving everything or facing a problem.
Every time that I remember Anita, I feel happy because there are courageous people in the world, and she is a
role model for everybody. She was born with a problem in her right arm, a congenital disease. When she was a
baby, she did not have any problem with this, but when she grew up and had to go to kindergarten, she started to
begin having problems because her classmates saw her in a different way and someone laughed at her because she
did not have her full arm. That was the beginning, but she always had much strength and she never thought that her
value was less than others. She had many friends and she was a sweet and happy child.
She had some conflicts when she started school but later she continued with great effort to get good grades. She
was the best of her class. When she was a child, she wanted to become a doctor in pediatrics. A priority in her life
is her studies. Her family trusts her. Support is a necessary aspect for success.
Now, she is studying medicine at the University of Costa Rica (UCR), and for her this process is not easy,
because some obstacles could be an excuse to stop thinking about her goals, but she has a strong desire to
overcome her obstacles. With one or two hands, she is a person struggling to achieve her goals. She learned that in
life there are problems, economic or physical obstacles, but often what prevents us from moving forward is our
attitude.
There are people with a positive attitude towards problems, for example people with a physical disability. They
have the capacity of learning and being different regardless of their environment, the difficulties, the opinion about
themselves or their limited mobility because for them the best decision is to learn to trust themselves. Life poses
not only problems; it also offers opportunities for challenging and becoming better. If I have a problem today, it is
because I have the capacity to face it. There is nothing impossible to someone who believes.

DAILY QUOTE: “Only those who dare to fail greatly can ever achieve greatly”. Robert F. Kennedy FORMER PRESIDENT EEUU
Do you want to achieve a goal?
Three Steps to Achieve a
Goal
Follow our three steps
Achieve your goals Steele U., Katherine [email protected]
To achieve a goal,
there are many thing
people can do. It
does not matter if
that person has a
disability or not. Of
course, it can be
more difficult for
some people than for
others. Each person
has his/her own
Achilles heel, and it
does not matter who
they are, where they
are from, if they
have a lot of money
or even their skin
color. To reach a
goal, they have to
defeat their own
Achilles heel and
also they have to
consider three
important things.
First, they
have to be sure that
their goal is realistic
and achievable.
Many times people
dream about
impossible things
and those dreams
because that idea
could cause him to
lose money trying
something that
would not work.
To
summarize, if people
want to achieve a
goal, they have to
work hard and keep
in mind that there
are always obstacles
that they have to
overcome. Nobody
has a potion to be
successful, but there
is the recipe to try it.
No matter how many
times they could fail,
what is really
important is that
they keep trying.
Also, people can use
the three pieces of
advice we told
before: being sure
that the goal is
realistic and
delimited and
whether this is what
they really want to
do.
then become
difficult to overcome
and even can reduce
or eliminate the
ability to dream
about new goals.
steps that you need
to follow before you
can reach your goal,
for example: if a girl
decides to graduate
with honors, she has
to consider that it is
not enough to have
good scores, she also
has to be early at
school, deliver all
her homework and
she needs to show a
good behavior in her
classes. So, it is
pretty important to
identify and follow
all the steps
according to a pre-
made plan.
Third, they
have to be sure that
they want to achieve
that goal. Usually
people think that
they want to achieve
a goal, but when
they discover how
hard or long the way
is to achieve their
goal, they just prefer
to give up. For
example, it is like
when a boy wants to
create a company
and his best friend
says that creating a
company is pretty
difficult and risky;
he will think that it
is better to give up,

DO YOU HAVE ANY DISABILITIES?
Disabilities
Disability or challenge?
Physiological opinion Quesada P., Elena [email protected]
There are three very
important areas
within the topic of
disability which are
the types of
disabilities, the role
models and the
challenges. These
three points are
critical when
covering the topic of
disability, because
they help us to
understand first that
there are disabilities,
second, examples of
life for others, and
finally, the
challenges faced by
many people with
disabilities.
First, there
are two types of
disabilities, physical
and mental. A
physical disability is
the loss or inability
to suffer caused by a
disease, such as
diabetes or also
because of an
accident. There is
also mental
disability which is
often influenced by
society, because
there are negative
comments and it is
compounded by low
self-esteem that
many people have
for themselves.
There is a third type
of disability which is
the joint disability,
when you mix the
two types of
disability above
causing a person to
have mental,
emotional and
physical problems
Second,
there are role
models, who are
people who have
physical disabilities,
but despite this
disability, this
person continues his
or her life as an
example for others.
Importantly,
especially the people
who have a physical
disability go through
hard times, but the
main thing is that
they continue with
their lives.
And last,
there are the
challenges faced by
people with different
types of disabilities.
Some of these
challenges are bad
comments, the lack
of money,
overprotection by
people causing those
wrong thoughts of
worthlessness and
also low self-esteem.
These difficulties
become positive
challenges for
people who face
these kinds of
disabilities and these
challenges can be
overcome with the
help of God first,
then an expert and
finally the help of
loved ones.
In
conclusion, among
the types of
disabilities that were
mentioned earlier for
me the most difficult
to overcome is the
mental one, because
the challenges that
arise with this type
of disability are very
complicated and in
my opinion it
requires the help of a
specialist. In this
case you work with
these patients what
is called mental
restructuring,
consisting in
changing negative
thoughts with
positive thoughts,
allowing people to
change their view of
themselves and be a
model for other
people with these
same problems.

IS HOMEWORK A GOOD TOOL TO LEARN?
Homework
Homework really works?
Are helpful homework? Ureña G., Marianela [email protected]
.
According to
information, the
homework is doing
exercises or
activities that the
teacher gives the
student to make at
home. The student
acquires opportunity
the practice and
strengthens their
academic skills. The
homework should
reflect what students
should know and be
directly related to
what they learned in
class. This is
important because
the student learning
to form values and
for intellectual
development.
First, the
homework: as their
academic skills.
With the
development of
skills a student can
get good and better
results in the studies.
The student teaches
to develop academic
skills depends on
their will to
improve. For
example:
organization, good
use of time,
these are education,
the family and the
economically. These
elements are
decisive to the
development of the
individual.
In
conclusion, the
parents and teacher

we are adults. But
the most important
work is done by
parents. Parent’s
love and patience

arrangement of
priorities, focus and
motivation. These
are some skills that
can help students
with their
homework. Mostly,
these are some
practices our parents
had taught once.
Second, the
homework: as
values. The
homework can help
a student develop
very important
emotional and
behavioral values.
These values include
responsibility,
autonomy,
perseverance, time
management,
initiative, self-
reliance and
resourcefulness. For
instance, the
responsibility helps
to choose the studies
appropriately, and
effectively, carries
somehow a self-
sufficient knowledge
of how to defend
him.
Third, the
homework: as
intellectual
development. The
student’s necessity
stimulates their brain

activities.
The student
must obtain elements
that contribute to the
formation and
development of their
skills and
capabilities. For

WHICH ARE YOUR ABILITIES?
Disabilities or Different
Abilities An expert opinion
A lot of habilities Gamboa C., Jennifer [email protected]
We have heard
many things about
disabilities and also
we can see many
children, women,
men, and adults with
differences in their
capacity to do
activities.
Furthermore,
“disability includes
deficiencies,
limitations and a
decrease in the
participation, which
affects the structure
or function of the
body.”1 First, the
motor disabilities are
when someone has
difficulty with any
part of his or her
body, for example in
the hands, feet, hip,
neck, fingers or
another part. On the
other hand, many
people do not have
any extremity and
they have to use a
wheelchair as means
of transportation.
Also, the family
helps and guides
these people, because
of their immobility.
Second, the
sensory disabilities
include the different
senses that form our
body. For instance,
they cannot see
Do you think Are they like us? because of any
illness or blindness,
they cannot hear and
they use special
items for hearing.
These senses are
very important to
know what happens
around us or to see
and listen to things
we like. Third, there
are communication
disabilities. This
occurs when people
have problems to
communicate with
other people or with
their family or
friends. For example,
one problem of the
communication
disabilities consists in
stuttering. When
people have this
disability, they cannot
talk fluently; they
have many
difficulties to say a
few words or to
pronounce sentences.
In
conclusion, I think
that we are equal and
we all have the same
rights. But, not only
that, also these
people have to work
in different places
around the country
with the same
opportunities, since
they are very
intelligent and they
are people with
dreams, aims and
with much strength
to live.

WHAT IS INTELLIGENCE?
CP
Carol Peña
Are animals smart?
What is
intelligence?
Which are the animals? Peña R., Carol. [email protected]
Intelligence is the
ability to make
decisions and to
think rationally
about something
specific. Sometimes
people think that
only humans are
smart, but the way
animals behave is
very interesting.
Their different
attitudes towards
people raise three
questions about the
smartness of
animals: Is it
instinct? Is it
repetition and
imitation? Is it
stimulation to learn?
These questions are
complicated because
the smartness of
animals depends of
the species. There
are a lot of varieties
of animals in the
world; each one is
different and has its
own special
characteristics. Also,
the smartness of
animals is related
with his
environment
as well as the
obstacles it has to
face to survive; each
one of these aspects
is important must be
taken into account
when responding
each question.
One aspect
about the smartness
of animals is
instinct. For
example, the
chimpanzee lives in
a natural
environmental and
develops many
capacities and
abilities in order for
him to live, eat and
survive. In these
cases, natural
selection explains
the difference
between the
smartness of animals
and instinct.
According to
instinct, species die
or develop the
missing trait.
Smartness requires
the animal to thinks
about its decisions
and resolve
situations in order to
survive with others
species.
Another
question relates to
repetition and
imitation. For me,
animals can
These three
aspects allow us to
understand the
relation between
instinct, situation
repetition
(imitation), and the
stimulation to learn.
For me, the way they
react when facing
difficulties depends
on the context, the
environment, their
food necessities, and
their situation. If
animals have
significant contact
with humans, they
can develop the need
for imitation in order
to feel part of the
group, because that
is their instinct; they
need to be part of a
group and in order to
feel safe, in this
case, with humans.
Another
characteristic of
animals is their
ability to easily learn
according to their
specie; in other
words, the smartness
of animals is real.
Elephants from Google pictures
learn by trial and
error, by repeating
situations, or by
imitation. This
depends on brain
development and on
the stimulation they
receive to learn.
Perhaps they
are not as smart as
humans, because
they do not have the
ability to
communicate by
speech, but they are
able to move, make
sounds and gestures
in order to
communicate with
each other and with
humans. Animals
use their intelligence
and combine it with
instinct, either to
survive or to please
their master, as in
the case of the dog,
who is capable of
learning to dance,
and make different
moves to make its
master happy.
A third
aspect is the
stimulation to learn.
For example, in
society some people
require an animal to
live or go to work. A
person with physical
disability could need
to be guided by a
dog, or a dog could
work with the police
to detect drugs or
with those who work
with rescue teams;
horses and donkeys
also serve as support
for jobs in
agriculture and
livestock, and
dolphins work in
physical therapy.
But each one
requires a learning
process in order to
be able to help
society.

DO YOU KNOW
Why Are Some Animals Intelligent? Expert opinio
Three reasons Steele U., Katherine [email protected]
It is known that
there are some
animals that are
more intelligent than
others, but which are
those aspects that let
some animals
develop a superior
intelligence in
contrast to other
animals?, at the
moment it do not
exist concrete
answers for that
question. However,
some recent
researches show us
which factors those
animals have in
common and if those
same factors
contribute to this
intelligent behavior.
Those aspects could
be habits, lifestyle or
environmental
conditions.
Researchers think
that if the most
intelligent animals
share something, it
could be the reason
why some animals
have a high
intelligence
compared with
others. We are just
going to focus on
the three most
important aspects
they share.
First, they
have an evolved
brain. There is a
theory called Triune
Brain. It explains
that the brain of
many
animals(including
humans) has
undergone an
evolutionary
make decisions and
lead groups, which
show us an
intelligent behavior
that has been
developed by the
animal without
human assistance.
In
conclusion, not all
animals can develop
intelligence. It
depends on factors
such as we have seen
above. first, they
must have a
developed brain;
second, they have to
adapt to their
environment; and
finally, they have to
live in a complex
society structure.
Some animals do not
meet these
characteristics, so
they cannot develop
superior intelligence
and it even causes
their species’
extinction, as in the
case of the Golden
Toad that lived in
Monteverde, Costa
Rica. But these
characteristics are
not simple living
conditions, those are
external stimuli
which allowed these
intelligent animals to
overcome their
obstacles and
therefore the
obstacles of its
species and as
Darwin said “In the
struggle for survival,
the fittest win out at
the expense of their
rivals because they
succeed in adapting
themselves best to
their environment.”
(Charles Darwin,
1798).
process, i.e., the
brain was initially
small and very
primitive which did
not allow reasoning.
This cerebral form is
called Reptilian
Brain and, as the
name says, reptiles
possess it. Then, the
brain evolved to
develop a layer of
cerebral cortex
which was called the
Mammalian Brain.
This new brain
allows animals to
reason and that is
why animals, like
elephants, dolphins,
parrots, crows, and
other birds and
nonhuman mammals
solve problems
better than other
animals. Finally, the
brain developed a
last layer of cerebral
cortex called Human
Brain, and as the
name says, just
humans posses it and
most of us know
what this brain
allows us to do.
Second, they
have a necessity.
The brain was forced
to evolve due to the
large amounts of
challenges it had to
overcome to survive.
Some animals were
large, had thick skin,
were skilled, fast and
even had poison
allowing them to
hunt for food and
defend themselves
against predators,
but what happened
with those animals
that did not have
these resources to
survive? Will they
be always the prey?
Will their species be
forced to extinguish?
Those animals had
to develop methods
to ensure food and
security.
Fortunately, their
new brain allowed
them to get these
two things without
risking death in the
attempt. Even many
of those animals that
got their brain in the
second face of
evolution are able to
solve problems that
they have never met
and who require
insight.
Third, they
live in a complex
society structure.
Animals that live in
society with other
animals have
evolved complex
structures that let
them interact with
others of their kind.
Those animals have
the opportunity to
adopt and refine all
those survival
techniques allowing
them to protect and
maintain their
species. These
animals not only
learn from other
animals, they are
also forced to
behave according to
group norms. They
must even adapt to a
behavior that is
accepted by those of
their own species.
This process makes
a contribution to
animals which have
special cognitive
abilities to be
functional in their
habitat, follow rules,

Animal intelligence
Animals from Google pictures
Intelligence? Quesada P., Elena [email protected]
There are different
types of animals,
from very small
ones like insects to
big animals like
giraffe,
hippopotamus and
rhinoceros; but
when you mention
the subject of animal
intelligence,
reversed order think
about some animals,
such as parrots,
dogs, dolphins and
chimps, so we
ignore the rest of the
animals and we
assume that they are
the most intelligent
ones or forget other
animals. For that
reason, we can
conclude three
important points
about animal
intelligence. The
first is whether
animals are really
intelligent. The
second is the
relationship of
animal intelligence
versus human
intelligence. And
finally, the third is
the communication
among animals.
These points are
very important when
we talk about animal
intelligence.
The first
point is whether
animals really have
animal intelligence.
This is questioned
by many people, and
we have seen it in
many reports of
animals which
perform certain
activities, such as
parrots which talk,
elephants that paint,
but for me this is not
animal intelligence.
For me, animal
intelligence is how
animals adapt to the
environment in order
to get their food with
the purpose of
surviving. Also, I
think that when a
parrot says some
words or some
animal does
something similar,
that animal has no
idea of what he is
doing. Sometimes,
animals do these
activities because
they receive a
reward and that is
how they learn to
perform them.
The second
point is the
relationship of
animal intelligence
versus human
intelligence. This
reason for me is very
important, because
sometime we believe
we are very smart,
but we forget the
evolution of
humanity. Several
investigations have
been created
indicating that
humans evolved
from the
chimpanzee, in other
words, we can say
that our intelligence
in part comes from
this animal. This
research has been
highly questionable,
but the most
important is that
both, animals and
humans; are
intelligent. The
difference is the
environment in.
Which they develop
The last point is
the communication
among animals. This
point is wonderful,
because this is
something that can
be seen by observing
the animals. A clear
example of
communication
among animals is
when females have
their children,
because it is
amazing how they
care for and protect
their young. This is a
form of
communication. The
most important thing
to understand is that
animals
communicate with
each other like
human beings, but
they do it in their
own way.
In
conclusion, the
credibility of animal
intelligence, the
comparison of
different
intelligences and
communication are
important issues,
which creates many
questions and,
because of this, very
interesting research
is conducted to
clarify all doubts
about these issues.
But this is important,
because it enables us
to acquire
knowledge through
all this research and
thus have a clear
idea of the topic of
animal intelligence.
According to
Herbert Simon, "All
that gives us new
knowledge gives us
the opportunity to be
more rational."2
Animal intelligence
is a subject in which
we generate more
rational thoughts to
get true knowledge.

Which intelligent animals do you know?
Animal Intelligence

Throughout history,
the human race has
categorized itself as
the most intelligent
of all the species on
the Earth´s surface.
We have been proud
of our evolution and
we have compared
ourselves to every
living being, just to
reach to the
conclusion that we
are, with no doubt,
the highest evolved
creature on this
planet. This thought
has led to many
consequences. But
who dares to
proclaim animals as
inferior? Who leads
us to believe their
intelligence is not
comparable to that
of the human mind?
This essay will focus
on these two
questions, and it will
try to argue that
animals have a great
level of intelligence,
both regarding the
apprehension of life
and learning, as well
as emotions and
sympathy. In order
to develop this idea
in the following
paragraphs, we will
take an example of
three different
animal species:
elephants, dolphins
and dogs. We will
speak about the first
two based on some
studies about them,
and the last will be
based on my
personal experience;
but with a
perspective on not
only their abilities to
“think and create”,
but also their social
behavior and their
emotional
demonstrations.
Elephants
have been seen,
especially in the
Occident, as great
mammals that are
worth for their ivory
or for their circus
performances, but
studies have proven
them to be much
more than simple
trainees. One of the
most interesting data
about them lies on
the fact that this
specie’s behavior,
development and
survival, as well as
that of the human
race, is not
processed reversed
order instinct, but by
learning methods.
They have an
education period of
approximately ten
years, during which
they are taught how
to protect
themselves, how to
feed, how to solve
problems, how to
use tools and how to
behave among their
fellow elephant
relatives. This
demonstrates that
their brain, fully
developed until adult
stage, has the
capacity to process,
analyze and apply
information for their
benefit. But this
creature´s capacity
surpasses the
teaching-learning
cycle. Elephants live
in tribes
compounded of
intricate social webs;
each of them learns
their position in this
web and behaves
according to it. Their
bond is so strong
that it had led
scientists to believe
they have created
languages to
communicate among
themselves. Finally,
this family closeness
has developed on
elephants
a“humanistic” trait:
the awareness of
death and its
commemoration.
Elephants bury their
deceased with leaves
and mud. They take
care of the body for
approximately two
days, and then they
leave in grief. With
these two brief
examples we have
exposed one trait of
the elephant´s
applied intelligence
and one illustration
of the emotional
intelligence.3
Dolphins, in
contrast to elephants,
have been more
respected and valued
along all coasts.
Among the
characteristics that
make this species so
special we can
mention their brain
properties. Its size is
bigger than that of
humans and contains
more cerebral mass.
To name one of its
unique attributes we
can mention that this
specie’s behavior
corresponds and
responds to their
sensory system.
Dolphins are a social
species and they, as
well as elephants,
live with their
family. They
demonstrate the
importance of this
bond, and of survival
of their own by
helping other
dolphins to breathe,
driving them out to
the surface of the
sea. Their brain
skills are used and
applied through the
teaching of their
offspring.. These sea
creatures teach their
young how to
conduct themselves
for protection. A
behavior that
demonstrates their
ability to socialize,
learn and teach. But
this is only a brief
example of their
capabilities,
especially because
one of their most
remarkable traits is
their language
potential. This
language involves
not only sounds, but
dances and jumps.
Each sound emitted
by dolphins is
constituted of many
emissions that
transmit information.
This means they
communicate
through a complex
language that
surpasses emotion,
or circumstance.4

Which intelligent animals do you know?
Animal Intelligence
Dogs are, on
the other hand, a
species that is closer
to human beings and
their life routines.
We have
domesticated them
for company, for
guardianship, for
useful purposes such
as helping the blind,
detecting drugs or
hunting. Their
education, however,
is based on
conditional training.
We teach them to
behave as we desire
by giving them
prizes when they
follow instructions
or punishing them
when they do not.
This training is
based on repetition
and constancy, and
they react to this, as
Pavlov proved long
ago. These rewards
are known as
positive reinforces,
and they can even
learn to associate
human words with
their actions, such as
“sit”, “stay” or
“paw”. Therefore,
their behavior´s
motor relies on
instinct and
condition.
Nevertheless, any
human being that
has been the master
of a dog, and has
had a real
connection with it,
could not lie if they
said their behavior
goes far beyond
training. Dogs can
understand their
master´s intention
just by listening to
the tone of their
voice. They can
communicate their
needs in such a way
that they can be clear
for humans, and they
can relate to their
owner´s emotions.
For example, my
dog Sudi, a retriever,
is a very hyperactive
dog. He is always
jumping around and
asking to play.
However, whenever
someone in my
house is sad and
crying he
immediately changes
his behavior and
calms down. He
gathers next to you
and cuddles next to
your legs and
accompanies you
with a different
attitude until your
mood has changed.
This reveals that he
is capable of sensing
that something is not
right and that he
shares a connection
with our emotions.5
In
conclusion, those
animals are sensitive
and intelligent
beings. They behave
and react in a
different way than
humans but this is
only a different way
of expressing and
living, not a better
one. These creatures
should not be
underestimated just
because they do not
share our language
or brain functioning.
We must learn from
their conducts, their
solidarity, the time
and care they
provide to their
offspring, and
especially their
awareness of nature
and their role in it.
The human race
should learn to
respect them more
each day. Elephants,
dolphins and dogs
have been proven to
be an outstanding
species;
nevertheless, each
variety of animals
has its own amazing
traits, which we
should be humble
enough to
acknowledge, value
and imitate.

Longevity
Longevity from Google pictures
Ureña G., Marianela [email protected]
According to
investigations,
people who show
longevity come from
a working
environment and by
making exercise.
This is important
because although
they look elderly
still they can help in
the education and in
their families.
Longevity is
relevant because it
cares about the
body.
First,
longevity is in the
food. Generally,
people eat all their
lifetime. They are
eating fruits and
vegetables, for
example, pineapple,
papaya, carrots and
corn. These people
eat low fat, do not
eat hamburgers or
fried chicken. It is
important to eat food
containing vitamins
like omega 3.
Second,
having a long life
depends on working.
People, who work in
a comfortable
environment and
stress free, live
longer. They are
happier people live
longer. The people
with the highest
level of longevity
live in the farms.
One of the reasons is
because the life in
the country side does
not have smock and
the atmosphere is
clean.
Third,
prolonged life is a
synonym to exercise.
There are two types
of exercise, the
physical and mental.
The physical helps
the bones and
muscles and the
mental help the
brain. The most
important are the
mental exercise
because it allows
you to feel useful,
for example crafts,
zudoku or learning
something new.
In
conclusion, the
people who present
longevity are happier
and learn tips about
living well. There
are more myths
about longevity but
it depends on the
“good “habit that
people have. For
example, not
smoking and not
drink alcohol. Living
healthy is a good
motivation in life. It
is important.
