My tourism students were in charge of the protocol, putting into practice their knowledge of protocol and etiquette for this type of event, so they were attentive to every detail, we closed the dances with the descent of the cross, and a beautiful dance of a student of telematics, who transmitted with her steps the passion and faith that we feel for the Holy Cross, finally the rich cuisine that was exhibited was distributed to those present.
Mis estudiantes de turismo fueron los encargados del protocolo poniendo en pr谩ctica sus conocimientos en protocolo y etiqueta para este tipo de eventos por lo que estaban al pendiente de todo detalle, cerramos los bailes con la bajada de la cruz, y una hermosa danza de una estudiante de telem谩tica, quien trasmiti贸 con sus pasos la pasi贸n y la fe que sentimos por la Santa Cruz, finalmente se reparti贸 a los presentes la rica gastronom铆a que estaba exhibida.
As a teacher, I am pleased that my students are integrally formed while demonstrating their artistic talents in this type of activities, I believe that the school and high schools are the perfect places to discover the potential and talents of each one of them, involving these aspects in the learning and teaching process, because as a technical school we do not stay in the theory, but we move towards the implementation of their knowledge to be creators of their own future.
Como docente me siento complacida que mis estudiantes se formen integralmente a la vez que demuestren sus dotes art铆sticas en este tipo de actividades, considero que la escuela y liceos son los lugares perfectos para descubrir las potencialidades y talentos de cada uno de ellos, involucrando estos aspectos en el proceso de aprendizaje y ense帽anza, ya que como escuela t茅cnica que somos no nos quedamos en la teor铆a, sino que avanzamos hacia la puesta en pr谩ctica de sus conocimientos para que sean creadores de su propio futuro.
