Hector E. Saavedra BA in English and BS in Spanish Phone (479 – 561 8600 Email: [email protected] P.O.Box 515, Alma (AR 72921) To Whom It May Concern I, Hector E. Saavedra, enclose my academic/professional resume for your review. From 1977 to 1980 I was enrolled in Licentiate in Classical Philology at Catholic University in Valparaiso, Chile, and between 1981 – 1989, I studied EFL Pedagogy at the same college. In 1990, I got my BA in EFL education (EFL Teacher) at University of La Serena, Chile in 1990. Since 1996 to 1998 I was enrolled in a program leading to the Master degree in Linguistics at University of Santiago, Chile. I worked as an EFL teacher for 15 years (1990 – 2005) in Chile. My professional experience includes all levels of education (primary, middle, and high) both in private and public schools, adult teaching, college, and language institutes. In addition, I wrote six EFL handbooks (Basic and Intermediate levels) for Chilean students. Additionally, I worked since 1990 to present as an English-Spanish-Portuguese translator (freelance) in Chile and the United States in different matters such as legal documents (divorce papers, birth certificates), and also papers and books on linguistics and education. Since 2005 and 2007 I was member of MiTin (Michigan Translators and Interpreters Network) and ATA (American Translators Association). Apart from that, I volunteered, between 2005-2007, as a conference translator and EFL teacher for the Spanish community at Fisher Elementary School in South Redford (MI). During that period, I also lectured Spanish lessons as a part-time instructor at Madonna University and Schoolcraft College in Livonia (MI). -
Biocultural Ethics: Recovering the Vital Links Between the Inhabitants, Their Habits, and Habitats Ricardo Rozzi*
Spring 2012 27 Biocultural Ethics: Recovering the Vital Links between the Inhabitants, Their Habits, and Habitats Ricardo Rozzi* Biocultural homogenization involves three major drivers: (a) the physical barrier to every- day contact with biodiversity derived from the rapid growth of urban population, (b) the conceptual barrier derived from the omission in formal and non-formal education of native languages that contain a broad spectrum of traditional ecological knowledge and values, and (c) political barriers associated with the elimination or reduction of the teaching of ethics under the prevailing neoliberal economy governance since the 1960s. Biocultural ethics aims at overcoming these barriers by recovering the vital links between biological and cultural diversity, between the habits and the habitats of the inhabitants. These links are acknowledged by early Western philosophy, Amerindian traditional ecological knowledge, and contemporary ecological and evolutionary sciences, but have been lost in prevailing modern ethics. There is an overlooked diversity of forms of knowing and inhabiting regional ecosystems, each of them having diverse environmental and social consequences. A better understanding of the regionally diverse mosaics of ecosystems, languages, and cultures facilitates the distinction of specific causes and responsible agents of environmental problems, and the disclosure of sustainable practices, forms of ecological knowledge and values that offer already existing options to solve socio-ecological problems. I. INTRODUCTION Modern ethics has decoupled human habits from the habitats where they take place, as if humans and their identities could exist in isolation from their habitats and other-than-human co-inhabitants. The conceptual omission of the links between habitats and habits has further sustained a Eurocentric approach projected onto the colonies with minimal consideration for the native ethos: as if indigenous ethics, and their intricate links with their habitats, would not exist or would be irrelevant. -

1 WELCOME CONGRESS APP The ICBM 2018 mobile app can be found in Google Play for Android or in the App Store for Apple IOS with the name: ICBM2018 Dear Congress Attendees, On behalf of the Scientific Program Committee and the International Society of Behavioral Medicine (ISBM), we welcome you to the 15th International Congress of Behavioral Medi- cine (ICBM) in Santiago de Chile! Along with the Scientific Program Committee, we have se- lected an outstanding scientific program representing the remarkable breadth and depth of current behavioral medicine research across the world. We received more than 800 submitted abstracts representing 47 different countries. As the 15th ICBM represents our first congress in Latin America, please join us in welcoming our Lat- in American colleagues who have contributed to the strength of our scientific program in record numbers this year. We encourage you to review the program and look for congress events that reflect this year’s three-part theme: innovative behavioral interventions, transla- tion of behavioral medicine, and novel approaches for supporting health promotion. Our speakers will highlight exciting directions in behavioral medicine research to promote resilience, disease prevention and control, health behavior change, and reductions in health disparities via symposium, oral and poster presentations. This work reflects the critical role of behavioral medicine in advancing the health of individuals and communities around the world. We also have an exciting line up of morning and mid-day meetings scheduled throughout the Congress– these are unique and more intimate opportunities to network, gain career development guidance, and discuss targeted behavioral medicine topics in small groups with leading experts in the field. -
Tertiary Education in Chile
Reviews of National Policies for Education for Policies National of Reviews Reviews of National Policies for Education Tertiary Education in Chile Reviews of National Policies Education has been a central priority of Chile since the return of a democratic for Education government in 1990 and remains a priority as Chile prepares itself for OECD membership. A firm commitment to access and equity has led to ever-increasing Tertiary Education numbers of young people entering tertiary education, which poses challenges for financing and quality. The government has successfully responded to these Public Disclosure Authorized in Chile challenges, but, as enrolment continues to grow, new policies will need to be implemented to achieve the goal of a world-class tertiary education system responsive to the requirements of a global economy. This joint OECD and World Bank review gives a brief overview of post-secondary education in Chile and describes its development over the past twenty years. It presents an analysis of the system and identifies key directions for policy reform in light of the challenges encountered by officials, communities, enterprises, educators, parents and students. It concludes with a set of key recommendations concerning the structure of the system and its labour market relevance; access and equity, governance and management; research, development and innovation; internationalisation; and financing. This report will be very useful for both Chilean professionals and their international counterparts.

Objective: To describe the subjective theories about parental discipline Patient education; present in recommendations made by doctors and psychologists in books for parents in Spanish. Ma- parent-child terial and Method: Thirteen books with advice for parents, written in Spanish by healthcare profes- relationships sionals published between 2000 and 2017 were analyzed. Data analysis was performed using Groun- ded Theory procedures adapted for the study of subjective theories, through open and axial coding. In addition, thematic codification was made to describe the cases, identifying subjective mottos and subjective theories for each case, which at the same time were grouped into superordinate subjective theories. Results: The data were grouped into three general subjective theories about parental dis- cipline in the books analyzed. These subjective theories differ from one another in the importance attributed to authority, punishment, and the necessity of parental discipline.
