The National Open and Distance University Surcolombiana reached the region since

1986, first in Neiva Pitalito and then in 1989 when a group of students, given the difficulty

to get into college attendance, decided to start their higher education through University

of the South of Bogotá, UNISUR, at that time CREAD Pitalito.

The first physical space where the activities took place in Neiva was the former Vincen-

V., Tutor Inglés Cead Ibagué

Nowadays, language lear-

ning has become a necessity

for all people around the

world, so that each language

that is handled is a new door

opening.

Although English is consid-

ered the universal language

because of its importance in

every field of life; all lan-

guages and dialects are also

useful at some point. Today,

the anger is to learn English,

but over the years and the

unprecedented development

The audit to the certifi-

cation ISO9001:2008

NTCGP 1000-2004 was

carried out successfully on

September 24th and 25th.

The processes audited

were six in which we went

over the sentence “No

consent”. The times lived

before were used to de-

velop a permanent prepa-

ration, a long time ago

and along this year, not

only for the audit but the

commitment and sense of

belonging that is our char-

acteristic and it demands

us to offer a quality ser-

vice.

The day expected ar-

rived and each one of the

process leaders had to be

checked exhaustively and

face their wisdom, exper-

tise and knowledge with

audacity, experience and

suspicion of the Auditor of

SGS Company, in those

moments we felt the sup-

port of our zone, the Iba-

gue team and the national

level, all through the web-

conference and skype

followed the questions

and answers each sec-

ond, the happiness

screams “in situ” and

through the different mass

media when we passed

successfully a process,

finally the audit finished all

around the country and

thanks God “Zero Find-

ings” and then the respon-

sibility and tension grows

up, Engineer Luigy Lopez

said “the ball is in the

South Zone…” thanks

God and the effort of all

the team, we achieved the

proposed objectives, we

feel proud of being part of

this process, the learning

was total and incompara-

ble.

Now our duty is bigger,

to keep the quality certifi-

cation and overpass our

own challenges, the way

of excellence is endless.

In this opportunity we

continue with the special

edition, we began with

CEAD Pitalito and now we

present the CCAV Neiva,

where we underline the

best of our region, its his-

tory, advances and spe-

cial projects according to

our community social

identity.

For our next edition,

you can expect whole in-

formation about the devel-

opment of the Cultural

Week South Zone, which

will take place from Octo-

ber 26th to 30th , and in

order to close: the sport

meeting in the CERES La

Plata, The Unadista Song

Festival and much more.

The following dependencies were audited according to

the certification guide lines:

1. Regional management for the Social Educative Devel-

opment, Jose Guillermo Rodriguez Jimenez.

2. Research and Knowledge management, Bachelor

Milena Alcocer

3. Academicals Registration and control, Ing. Nilson Al-

beiro Ferreira

4. Techno-pedagogical management in media and media-

tions, Ing. John Montes

5. Management of technological infrastructure, Ing. Nestor

Ramos

6. Distance formation in different educational levels,

Magister Jose Julian Ñáñez

The audit was a big success for the CEAD and the Uni-

versity because according to the SGS representative, Miss

Buitrago the different audited items didn’t present any con-

formities.

This event will be remembered in the UNAD history

since because of it the University will get the certification in

November 13, 2009; and after that date the UNAD will join

the group of 5 public universities which have this achieve-

ment.

Getting this certification in quality is, according to the

Principal “a great achievement and acknowledgement for

the UNAD, which open the doors to internationalize of the

institution”.

The most important for the South Zone was the role it

could perform since we were main characters of this new

achievement of the University, and we could demonstrate

that quality is not a dream or a commitment but a culture in

which we are accessing every day.

By: Pedro Uriel Rojas, ECSAH Economic crisis, globalization,

companies on the net are some of the

factors which can be considered like

the cause of a growing phenomenon

in all companies or organizations that

meets more than five people, private

or state one. I do not know if this has

happened to you or if you perceive

the same, but in this moment in the

place where you work is surrounded

by workmates who simultaneously

develop the noble and old job of

sales. A decade ago in the work-

places, these characters were spo-

radic and for some times offered

their products, sending the under-

ground magazines or catalogues

which include; perfumes, clothes, jew-

els and cosmetics.

In our days there are true libraries

that are in the offices, cubicles, mod-

ules and other company rooms.

We find the partner who sells the

trips to Tierra Santa, to San Andres,

to the coast and to Tierra Caliente (a

touristic place of Ibague), and the per-

son who offers us since Holly Week a

delicious Christmas dinner to pay in

reasonable payments, the person who

sells weight-reducing treatments and

the efficient medicine to the hair fall.

The partner who offers whispering the

medicine to revitualize your sexual

power, unique, natural and without

contraindications, the person who

“legalizes” designer clothes at half

price, cells with TV signal, domiciliary

sessions of mesotherapy or here in

the company bathroom, Om-

nilife,Anway, Renna Ware.

If you think you can escape from

the sale’s partners troop surfing on

the Internet, you are taking an option

in which you can also find advertise-

ments, and publicity of products, type

“Mercado libre”, offering from the last

avant-garde article of the nanoscience

to used objects in perfect conditions.

The true is that the big companies

based on the organizing logic of Tay-

lor or Ford models of production that

put up with the cyclical crisis of the

1930s and 1970s and the technologi-

cal change very evident produced in

this last decade necessarily has to

look for another model of production:

The Company on the Net, with the

implementation of the informatics and

telecommunications in the organizing

life and the institutions together.

Then the company on the net is

the way of answering to the crisis of

profitability which suffers the process

of money accumulation of the classic

companies.

What are the characteristics of this

way of organization?

With the spreading and overcrowd-

ing of technology, the company on the

net spreads easily, this can be

seen with clear accent in

the commerciali-

zation.

T h e

c o m -

pany links and other ways of working

and hiring allow to avoiding benefit

burdens and other work and commit-

ments which generate great costs of

investment

In order for the company on the net

to have utility and effectiveness must

offer quality products with immediate

and visible results. That is the most

efficient way of selling the company

on the net. The link that the company

would acquire with you does not com-

promise contractually.

The company avoids to spend

money in leasing, energy, internet,

advertising and choosing processes

of staff, since the same multilevel sys-

tem allows to identify the engaged

worker easily.

The ways of motivation to be in-

volved in this company are:

1. The first beneficiary is you con-

suming the products.

2. You are earning an extra money

without much effort since the prod-

uct sells itself

3. You are using your time and

schedule because you get inde-

pendence.

The history, facts and images of the pastThe history, facts and images of the past ary 28, the student associa-

tion makes the CEAD Neiva

is officially under the 009

agreement of the Board of

UNISUR.

In this time are beginning to

offer of the programs in

Community Social Psychol-

ogy and Social Communica-

tion and by 1999 was already open

the programs in Pharmacy Regency

and Systems Engineering.

Today we can say with great satis-

faction that we have transcended the

traditional schemes of higher educa-

tion and the community and its direc-

tives UNAD Neiva, since Yamileth

Peña (1994 - 1996), Oreste Carlos

Quintero (RIP) (1996-1997), Silvia

Santos (1997 - 1998), Victor Arturo

Moreno, (1998 - 2004) and Jaime

Narvaez Joaquin Murcia, (2004 to

date) have taken up the challenges

and achieve goals at region al level.

The CEAD NEIVA

turns their 18 years In this crossed it has been man-

aged to build and implement actions,

such as:

From 1989 to date, 1.709 stu-

dents had obtained titles as technolo-

gists, professionals and specialists.

This talented group of graduates have

contributed to regional and national

high performance in public office by

popular election, in private enterprise

and as managers of their own busi-

nesses, which generate direct and

indirect jobs to the economic revitali-

zation of the region.

Internships, work degree and

professional practices have impacted

vulnerable populations in the Depart-

ment of Huila and in the districts 4, 6,

7, 8, 9 and 10 of Neiva.

Strategic alliances with private

enterprise, inter-administrative agree-

ments with local au-

thorities and with na-

tional public institu-

tions, which are pre-

sent in our region, are

an example of suc-

cessful experiences

that we can show them

to the country.

Successful

experiences

• Capacity to improve social skills

of students in the formal sector of

the of Huila state. The target popula-

tion of epidemiologically relevant

events in mental health, community

and communication strategies with

school-oriented projects amounted to

57.727 people. Of these, 82% are

students, 7% indigenous population,

4.3% of families, 2.6% displaced and

2.3% for educators.

• Computers in class: another

way to learn. The coverage struck

the 37 municipalities of Huila, a popu-

lation of thirty thousand students, two

thousand teachers and 240 school

administrators, 100% Educational In-

stitutions participating municipalities,

developing 72 projects, urban and

rural drivers.

Departmental Program Bilin-

gualism "Huila Speak English"

Through UNAD to 270 teachers were

trained in the Department of English,

improving their level consistent with

the Common European Framework.

In addition, he prepared for foreign

language teaching to 690 teachers to

guide the area from kindergarten to

third grade basic education, which

made their project to the institution

where they work.

• Inspection and monitoring of

educational institutions of the de-

partment of Huila. To contribute to

improving the School Management,

Management Directive, Administrative

and Financial Management, the Aca-

demic Administration and Community

Management on aspects of quality,

coverage and efficiency of educa-

tional institutions of formal and mu-

nicipalities uncertified, impacting Edu-

cational official Institutions to 317 and

72 private.

Technical advice to the depart-

ment of Huila in the implementation

of SGI's Integrated Management

System for obtaining quality certifi-

cation in Standard GP - 1000-2004.

The UNAD, with a team of profession-

als, reviewed and advised all adminis-

trative processes with the government

of Huila, did comply their respective

processes and operational risk maps

of continuous improvement. Similarly,

it provided all the technical and meth-

odological aspects in line with techni-

cal standards NTC GP-1000-2004,

MECI - NTC-5254 and 1000-2005

operational risk for the Government to

achieve Quality Certification for the

public sector, given by ICONTEC, in

2007.

Many institutions with whom we

have worked and obtained successful

experiences, which will be presented

in another publication.

All this leads us to ratify the com-

mitment to continue to lead regional

development processes and carry out

the mission of our University in this

sector of the country.

In the frame of the Cultural Week, Neiva's CCAV realized at the beginning of this month the Fair IV of Academic Schools and Unadista Integration, a space of meeting to socialize academic and investigative experiences of social projection. Everything with the aim to contribute with the promotion and invo-lution of the values that foment the well-being, the knowledge and the develop-ment of the Huilense community.

In the reflection of human The School of Social Sciences, Arts

and Humanities, led by Mabel Goretty Chala Trujillo, opened the day with the conference “Young People Today”, ori-entated by the psychologist Julián Vanegas Lopez. In his chat he realized an optimistic analysis on the situation of the teenagers of Neiva's city and, simul-taneously, he did the invitation to renew the channels of communication with them.

The Fair also was the setting for the socialization of investigative results of the program of Psychology, some of the projects: "Benefits of the alternative treatment based on natural agents for the drugs addicts' recovery " and " A culture plunged ", recounted to the psy-cho-socials effects of the construction of the "The Quimbo" Hydroelectric.

Equally, the ECSAH located a stand for the Evaluation of the intelligence; in this exercise, of great impact for the visitors, the interested parties surren-dered to a psychometric test and re-ceived a report on their intellectual quo-tient, as well as the explanation of the obtained results and basic concepts relative to the topic.

E - Commerce and Expo Unad For their part, the School and Busi-

ness, Countable, Economic and Admin-istrative Sciences (ECACEN), under Eduardo Corredor Torres's leadership, had the responsibility of organizing two central events of the fair:

E-Commerce, Electronic commerce. His aim was to share experiences as for design and functionality of web pages. In this activity companies took part as the Lottery of the Huila, IncubarHuila,

the Chamber of Trade, the Federation of Municipalities Terri-torial Huila, between others. This one was a propitious space for the exchange of ideas in the improvement of the commercial prac-tice.

Since part of the event of the e-commerce webcon-ference appeared from The Florida USA, on the origins, development and future of the electronic commerce, which was orientated by Phd. Jose Lepervanche. Equally, the Mgs Luis Corridor Toast, he shared the experience acquired in Mexico across a conference on safety of the information in the electronic commerce. The chat demonstrated the efficiency and the kindness of the use of the TIC's.

Expo Unad: ECACEN, Convinced that the best way of forming entrepre-neurs is to generate enterprises, he mo-tivates his students towards managerial initiatives by means of the development of this event. In this version they pre-sented business plans, managerial pro-jects and companies in march devel-oped by the Unadistas students and with participation of companies of the Region.

The summit of the robotics The School of Basic Sciences, Tech-

nology and Engineering presented a project of application of micro-controllers towards the field of the robot-ics, which originated the construction of a robotic spider, articulated across 12 servomotors and controlled by this class of devices. The work was developed by the students Jhon Fabio Ramirez, Jhon Jader Tovar and César Augusto Gómez, of the program of Electronic Engineering.

The director engineer of the project, Fabián Bolívar, assured that " the basic aim is to stimulate the robotics in the field of the electronic engineering, since this one is a branch of the part of the

control that is in summit. Hereinafter they try to apply this beginning for needs of the daily life, since in the ro-bots to deactivate bombs or for monitor-ing. It is necessary to improve the proto-type and then achieve frequency to con-trol it across radio; it is to say, of wire-less and like that form to manipulate objects and to accede to sites where the man cannot come. "

ECAPMA and the fox-hunters of

Neiva The Agricultural, Cattle Sciences and

of the Environment Schools offered to the fox-hunters' association of the Huila, AMOZOTRANS, a chat on the care and nourishment of the horse. This one was orientated by the tutor Mauricio Ramirez Gaitán and they attended it more than 20 members of the unionization, who of an active way received the given recom-mendations. Also, they demonstrated their satisfaction with the vaccination brigade and desparasitation of his equine ones.

Art: Culture and integration The cultural note of the Fair IV of

Academic Schools and Unadista Inte-gration was at the expense of the stu-dents of Social Communication and of the communicative competitions course, who are employed at the rescue of the wisdom of the opita people, guarded in the image and in the orality of the for-bears and that is transmitted from gen-eration to generation; now, recognized, valued and spread by the unadistas students.

cia.

The Caqueta city is denoted as

promised land; the Florencia city its

capital is at the forefront of that con-

notation, this is the reason to govern-

ment agencies, higher education and

research which are present in the

town, are managing the current devel-

opment, generating alternatives or

courses of action to determine the

areas of competitiveness and produc-

tivity in the region.

The university UNAD, inside the

research work projects involving for-

ward to contributing to the generation

of actions that would allow the devel-

opment to which the Florence town is

pointing, so taking account that the

Amazonian fruits, especially arazá,

fruit that is found in different Florencia

areas and its daily production is in-

creasing, identifies the importance of

inquiring about the current consump-

tion of the fruit in the consumer mar-

ket and Florence industrial town. Re-

search is conducted with Marketing

Research students course in the first

half of 2009, for development was

taken as reference the consumer mar-

ket where you applied the

technique to collect sam-

ples of the Northern com-

munes, East and South,

as well as the industrial

market where the owners

were questioned about the

fruit processing.

The results obtained to determine

that in Florence, the monthly con-

sumption of these communities

amounts to 4377 pounds; actually in

the industrial market, the processors

that are present in the region require

14,640 pounds per month to process,

which the supply mostly small produc-

ers of Valparaiso, Solita, Doncello,

and some of Florence, and others,

with whom he has a verbal contract

with clear commitments in delivering

the product, according to the em-

ployer requirements.

The fruit is known by 100% of re-

sponded people but this consumption

varies in each municipality, (North

80%, East 66% South 94%), the peo-

ple that answered told that it requires

marketing strategies and actions by

different actors in the production chain

that would allow arazá fully marketing

the product The purchase price of the

product in the communes is between

$ 500 and $ 1500; This differs from

the period, if the product is in crop

demand increases and the price tends

to fall, And if supply is limited (no har-

vest) the price tends to increase. The

aranzá is a product that in stratum 1

and 2 in the town, we can find in the

houses courtyards, thus allowing con-

sumption.

The inherent characteristics of the

fruit (pleasant aroma and taste) make

it very desirable in this market, al-

though this is not the nutritional de-

notes that it has, especially in stratum

1 and 2, which scored 42% and 35%

about nutritional .

At the conclusion of which is man-

aged according to figures by the Agri-

culture Ministry on aranzá production

in Florence in 2008,the production

was 40 tones falling to 80,000 lbs, per

Year, this differs from the amount

consumed in the urban area of the

municipality; the consumption inclina-

tion of aranzá in the Florence town is

growing that urgently must be man-

aged and lines of action designed to

enable a real opportunity to see busi-

ness potential in order to help improve

social, economic, environmental not

only small farmers but traders and the

general population;

Additionally, processing companies

must begin to identify market seg-

ments for their products to local and

national level in order to take advan-

tage the production fruit, thus avoiding

wastage or loss of production.

Similarly, creditors should be seed

money to enable compliance with le-

gal requirements for access to poten-

tial markets. In order to develop the

above it will requires commitment,

belonging sense and projection by the

actors that make up each link in the

chain arazá.

Newspaper and magazines search about the concept of Video-Magazine or Live Magazines.

Media and magazines are having a hard time because of Readers immigration to Internet. Therefore Companies have been searching and will continue doing it about how to make their field more effective, reaching people through video-magazines or like it is called by others LIFE MAGA-ZINES.

Technically, it would not be that easy to use flexible oled screens and a flash memory, which will be the one in charge of showing the content of the Live Magazine. At the beginning people would have to get just the magazine bases and then the flash card for each month or week edition.

In order to have the concept clearer, here there is a video which explains perfectly the way the video maga-zines or Live magazines work.

One of the most striking difficulties in computing is to see that one day our PC does not "want to start. So today we treat one case in which this problem-which is caused by several reasons, can be solved with a quick and precise action. All PCs loads their oper-ating system into RAM

reading a boot code written in the hard drive. When this code recorded in the area called Boot deteriorates or is re-moved as a result of a virus attack or failure of the sub-stance that covers the plates of the hard disk, the operating system simply fails to boot..

Windows shows this damage with different symptoms, one is trying to start repeating his charge, but since the boot code is incomplete, only the logo and the PC is "frozen". An-other symptom may be that the loading sequence is re-peated again and again showing the boot screen with the choice of loading options in Safe Mode, Normal Mode, etc. but without starting any of them.

Because you can not boot from the hard drive must be logged in with an installation CD. So the PC should have the first option to search the operating system to boot, the opti-cal drive (CD ROM-DVD). Such an allocation is made within the SETUP program which team will have to check with the motherboard manual or the PC if it's brand.

The second step is to boot the PC with the Windows CD. This prompted to press any key to start booting from the CD. The loading sequence at one point will ask if we want to re-pair an installation or start a new installation. We must select repair. Windows will ask which partition is the one we want to repair, this is version 1. Therefore type 1 and press the Enter key.

This operation is known as computer access to Windows Recovery Console. It is a resource used in those impossible cases to boot the operating system. It will be only shown a black screen with a blinking cursor. Here comes the critical part. Type: bootcfg / rebuild and press Enter. Finally remove the Windows CD and turn off and on again the PC.

If the hard drive’s damage is only located in this part, the problem will be resolved. Windows will rewrite the damaged code. But if the boot `s damage persists, you will have to consider using another PC to backup your data and format-ting your hard drive to reinstall Windows from scratch.

make a language like Mandarin

become the new "fashion" when it

is time to study a second lan-

guage.

In our country, the conception of

English is changing due to the

globalization we are experiencing;

increasingly growing number of

students of all ages and social

classes who are taking an English

course. And virtuality is no excep-

tion. In the Internet, there are all

sorts of sites where you can learn

English in an easy and funny way.

It is important to exploit all the ad-

vantages that technology offers,

noting that for this kind of educa-

tion there are no barriers of time

and space, since it tends to form

self-directed learners who are able

to develop an efficient learning

process.

The Internet is consolidating in

a privileged place to virtual educa-

tion because of its many benefits.

However, there are still many men-

tal barriers to break down. There-

fore, we must keep trying to make

everyone be aware that education

can be developed in an environ-

ment different from the classroom,

in which the teacher is guiding and

monitoring in person each process

step. That is, the need of the physi-

cal presence of the teacher felt by

students must be eradicated. Fur-

thermore, it is a matter of changing

the paradigm and understanding

that communication with teachers

and peers can occur through the

net (forums, chats, blogs, etc.).

Thus, the UNAD is responding

to new demands of globalization,

where the entire school commu-

nity: directors, management staff,

tutors and students must study and

use English and take maximum

advantage of it in all aspects of life.

The translation of virtual bulletin

¨Joining Distances” from the south

zone is the result of group effort

made by English tutors, those who

intend to provide an opportunity to

practice reading skills to members

of the University. This is just a

small step on the long road to gen-

erate a culture of bilingualism

where everyone is in constant con-

tact with this language and being

aware of its great importance and

the benefits that it can bring in

terms of Education, employment

and quality of life.

The National Ministry of Educa-

tion has designed a project entitled

"Colombia Bilingüe 2019 ", which

claims that all educational institu-

tions in the country including pri-

mary and secondary levels must

have a bilingual education. In line

with this project, the UNAD has as

one of its goals teaching English to

its entire academic and manage-

ment staff. For doing this, it is nec-

essary to start with different activi-

ties that contribute to this work

within each of its campus.

Then, the signs of the different

units of the University, the creation

of an English club for students and

the academic and management

staff and translation of the virtual

bulletin is a good experience for

the tutors of the School of Educa-

tion Science in the South Zone and

this is a means of showing the

work in a more practical and con-

crete way. So the invitation is ex-

tended to the entire community to

take advantage of all the resources

we have to improve our perform-

ance in English.

Mouse 2.0Mouse 2.0

Apple could launch its first Multitouch mouse fixed into the new mouses 2.0.

Yesterday after seeing the new genera-tion of multitouch mouses, it seems to be the company already has a commercial version of these mouses.

As we mentioned yesterday, the new multitouch mouse offer the user a superior experience to work with graphic environ-ments and interphases that require or offer the possibility to operate with different sights, perspectives, such as objects rota-tion, zoom, etc….

Apple had an ongoing project with this Mighty Mouse, due to this is the field they have updated less so far, if this project is ------- we could have the first multitouch mouse in the market.

The multi touch mouse will let people perform complex movements and gestures which can be done only with a multitouch screen or a trackpad so far. These mice will have the same mechanism as these two computer hardware.

Anyway, we give Apple a shoulder pad because of its constantly evolution and technological searching, which always go forward of the rest companies.

It will be called Mighty Mouse 2.0!! s o u r c e : h t t p : / /

Zonal Coordinador of Bienestar

Institucional, CEAD Ibagué. In theory, we can say that to be

UNADISTA, it required only complete

the registration and come into posses-

sion of student or to sign the labor

contract that recognizes the aca-

demic, administrative. However, be-

yond the procedural formalities is fra-

ternity and attitudinal codes, which in

one form or another and define our

identity as a community singled.

But, ¿ how to build this affection

and matching networks affection and

agreement? Undoubtedly, the contri-

bution being made by the academy

and its dynamic curriculum that over-

whelmed around the science and

knowledge. But the importance of

feeling think

and act collec-

tively, would

be to other sce-

narios where

through the

language of

rhetoric, the

literature, arts

and sport, im-

plies the use of

other scenarios

where the peo-

ple discover,

recognize and

each one take

on their roll in

the university.

It is our respon-

sibility , develop, promote, build and

participate in the tools and strategies

consolidation in order to sensitize

and give a

added value,

although give

an emotional

magic that is

so necessary

for revival our

identity.

It is the

justification

for the vast

range of festi-

vals, meet-

ings, competi-

tions, events

and contests

of all kinds,

that seem the

Colombian populate calendar. This is

the raft that has kept them afloat, it is

a our meeting point to forgive, to rein-

vent ourselves, to smile, to be Colom-

bian.

Bienestar Universitario has an

specif misión it is the implementation

of spaces and mechanisms for meet-

ing, it is the most important purpose,

the active participation of all segments

and each UNAD memeber, it wolud

certify the UNAD goal.

To be UNADISTA involve commit-

ments, actions and reactions compre-

hensive humanized. To be

UNADISTA is an invitation to redress

the violence legacy of and will not,

that stain the country history.be uni-

versity, is to promote the exaltation of

life through science and language, is

to engage, to move from criticism to

action.
