Today the education in Chile is a controversial topic because we have a lot of problems with it. Problems that involve high school and university, related with the quality and with the money.  First of all, Chile have a huge problem on University education because it is privatized, everyone who wants to study have to pay, even in the "states" universities you have to pay. For this there is a recent legislation named "gratuidad universal" that implicates giving free education to some percentage of the students (the ones who have less resources), but this benefits only a little part of the population.

This, of course has pros and cons, they are a lot of points of view, but I am inclined to think that this is so harm to human nature and health First of all, is prudent to mention that today to the humans social relations technology is making a weird phenomenon, because at this time, we have the chance to communicate in the whole world, but trough a screen, this have no problem, the problems came when we stop communicating our feelings or our opinions in person, face to face and we limit ourselves to only say what is really necessary and in that case, we are losing something innate of our nature.  In a second place, there are other things about technology that are...
