Moreover, it is even more difficult to follow it as second language because it implies another procedure. Learning English as foreign language is difficult, hence this is the case of a lot of Bolivian students, since they are not exposed to the target language due to our context and in fact they are not able to practice this language in a proper foreign language environment. In this sense, this work presents a set of proposals of workshops in order to reinforce the four English language communicative skills to overcome some communicative problems that language students can have due to their lack of practice. In this way, the present work was developed at the Universidad Indígena Boliviana Aymara “Tupak Katari” (UNIBOL), where we observed that many students needed help with English language since their regular language classes do not provide them enough language training to improve their proficiency. Also, due to the context in which they are in, it is more difficult to be exposed to English language. It means that their surrounded environment cannot allow them to practice the language. In consequence, English language has not been learned accurately. So that, this project aims on describing some problems that UNIBOL’s students faced up when learning English. To sum up, there were applied different language learning techniques in order to make students improve and practice their proficiency in English language. Finally, it is important to mention that after analyzing all the information provided during the project, it is asseverated that all the students’ mistakes were solved and reinforced by the application of the workshops and lesson plans applied. The students’ motivation, self- esteem and language performance increased compared to the daily activities they used to do; since the findings of this project let us know that linguistic theories applied, during the workshops, were useful to create and develop a practical and joyful atmosphere during the language teaching - learning process. RESUMEN Es bien sabido que el aprender un idioma extranjero conlleva a varios procesos y técnicas para llegar a ser hábil en una segunda lengua; este es el caso del inglés en Bolivia. Además, es más difícil aplicarlo como un segundo idioma, porque esto implica otro tipo de procedimientos. Aprender inglés como idioma extranjero es considerado difícil según muchos estudiantes Bolivianos, puesto que los mismos no se encuentran expuestos al idioma y de hecho no son capaces de practicarlo en diversos contextos. De este modo, este trabajo presenta una serie de propuestas y talleres para reforzar las cuatro habilidades comunicativas, además de superar ciertos problemas comunicativos expresados por los estudiantes como resultado de la falta de práctica del idioma. De esta manera, el presente trabajo fue desarrollado en la Universidad Indígena Boliviana “Tupak Katari” (UNIBOL), donde se observaron diversas necesidades de los estudiantes para aprender inglés; puesto que, sus clases regulares no les proveen el conocimiento suficiente del idioma. Además, debido al contexto en el que están inmersos, es más difícil estar expuesto al idioma Inglés. Esto significa que su entorno no les permite practicar o aplicar el idioma en diversos contextos comunicativos. En consecuencia, el idioma Inglés no es aprendido de manera apropiada. Por tanto, este proyecto se enfoca en describir algunos problemas que los estudiantes de la Universidad UNIBOL afrontan al momento de aprender el idioma. Para resumir, hemos aplicado diferentes técnicas de aprendizaje para hacer que los estudiantes mejoren y practiquen sus habilidades en el idioma Inglés. Finalmente, es importante mencionar que después de analizar toda la información requerida durante el proceso, podemos mencionar que todas las debilidades de los estudiantes con este idioma fueron resueltos y reforzados mediante la aplicación de los talleres y las planificaciones de aula aplicados. Su motivación, auto estima y desarrollo en clases incrementó con respecto a las actividades normales que solían hacer a diario. De este modo, los resultados de este proyecto nos permite conocer que las teorías lingüísticas aplicadas en la investigación y el desarrollo de los talleres son totalmente útiles para crear y desarrollar

Dolores Bargues1*, Patricio Artigas1, Rene Angles2, David Osca1, Pamela Duran1, Paola Buchon3, R. Karina Gonzales‑Pomar3, Julio Pinto‑Mendieta3 and Santiago Mas‑Coma1 Abstract Background: Fascioliasis is a snail‑borne zoonotic trematodiasis emerging due to climate changes, anthropogenic environment modifcations, and livestock movements. Many areas where Fasciola hepatica is endemic in humans have been described in Latin America altitude areas. Highest prevalences and intensities were reported from four provinces of the northern Bolivian Altiplano, where preventive chemotherapy is ongoing. New strategies are now incorporated to decrease infection/re‑infection risk, assessment of human infection sources to enable efcient prevention measures, and additionally a One Health initiative in a selected zone. Subsequent extension of these pilot interventions to the remaining Altiplano is key. Methods: To verify reproducibility throughout, 133 specimens from 25 lymnaeid populations representative of the whole Altiplano, and 11 used for population dynamics studies, were analyzed by rDNA ITS2 and ITS1 and mtDNA cox1 and 16S sequencing to assess their classifcation, variability and geographical spread. Results: Lymnaeid populations proved to belong to a monomorphic group, Galba truncatula. Only a single cox1 mutation was found in a local population. Two cox1 haplotypes were new. Comparisons of transmission foci data from the 1990’s with those of 2018 demonstrated an endemic area expansion.

As you will see, many different members of CUGS have contributed to this issue, but they were guided and (I presume) coaxed by the fine editorial hands of Padini Nirmal and Wenjing Jiang to whom I am very grateful for having produced this issue – it is no small amount of work. As you leaf through this Monadnock, Dr. Anthony Bebbington. you will get a sense of some of the things going on within CUGS – academically, socially and mischievously. I hope that for those of you who were once upon a time part of CUGS, these stories convey the right mix of the funny, familiar and interesting. For those of you who came to this year’s Clark party at the AAGs in San Francisco you’ll know ing the same good care of themselves. Too easily they end up “The very best kind of that for the first time ever I decided to stand on a table and say a few words. Mostly I made a feeling drained and insecure as a result of what seems like an education is obtained in complete hash of it, but what I wanted to convey to those who were present at the AAGs, and uphill struggle to remain excellent and to make the case for doing things one’s self under now also to you who are reading the Monadnock, is just how well the current faculty, staff excellence.

    Signs of the Time: Kallawaya Medical Expertise and Social Reproduction in 21st Century Bolivia by Mollie Callahan A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Anthropology) in the University of Michigan 2011 Doctoral Committee: Professor Judith T. Irvine, Chair Professor Bruce Mannheim Associate Professor Barbra A. Meek Associate Professor Javier C. Sanjines Dedicada a la comunidad de Curva (en su totalidad) y mis primeros amores, Jorge y Luka. ii Acknowledgements There are many people without whom this dissertation would have never been conceived, let alone completed. I am indebted first and foremost to my mother, Lynda Lange, for bringing me into this world and imparting her passion for reading, politics, and people well before she managed to complete her bachelor’s degree and then masters late into my own graduate studies. She has for as long as I can remember wished for me to achieve all that I could imagine and more, despite the limitations she faced in pursuing her own professional aspirations early in her adult life. Out of self-less love, and perhaps the hope of also living vicariously through my own adventures, she has persistently encouraged me to follow my heart even when it has delivered me into harms way and far from her protective embrace. I am eternally grateful for the freedom she has given me to pursue my dreams far from home and without judgment. Her encouragement and excitement about my own process of scholarly discovery have sustained me throughout the research and writing of this dissertation.
