When One Door Closes: The Art of Looking Toward a New Opening

A reflection inspired by a timeless proverb quoted by Cervantes: “When one door closes, another opens.” This article explores how every ending holds the seed of renewal and invites us to see closures not as losses, but as openings to growth, learning, and new possibilities.

The transformative power of patience

We live in the age of instant gratification. We want success yesterday, answers at the click of a button, and solutions in less than 24 hours. In this context, patience is not only a scarce virtue, it is an almost countercultural experience. It is, as Rousseau says, “bitter.”

Designing a Html5 type sound player button to implement Mayer's principle of modality

Spanish version
Written by: Prof. Orlando Carcamo Berrio

 

 

 

 

Through this article I present to you my implementation of the modality principle proposed by Sweller's (1994) cognitive load theory and Mayer's (2005) cognitive theory of multimedia learning. The modality principle recommends replacing written descriptions with spoken descriptions when giving explanations about the preparation of a task or a job on a platform or virtual classroom. It states this principle that since auditory or visual information is processed independently, then the student's working memory is not overloaded. I explain my application of the modality principle through the design of a sound player button to access the teacher's instructions in audio form on online educational platforms. In the design I used HTML5 and JavaScript.
