¿Nos recomiendas alguna apli-
cación?
Os recomendaría Geogebra ya
que es muy interesante para
aprender.
¿De qué trata Geogebra?
Geogebra es un software in-
teractivo de enseñanza y
aprendizaje matemático .
Geogebra está formado de las
palabras geometría y álgebra y
estos, precisamente, son sus
puntos fuertes pero también
hay otras actividades como
por ejemplo estadística.
Contiene geometría dinámica y
esto es lo más interesante ya
que puedes hacer una cons-
trucción de elementos geomé-
tricos y añadirles o quitarles
lo que quieras y estos están
ligados y al mover una parte se
mueve el resto de elementos
(o alguno de ellos).
En este programa puedes te-
ner dos o más ventanas abier-
tas simultáneamente y todas
estas están vinculadas. En es-
tas ventanas, puedes escribir
una ecuación y el programa te
la dibuja, o viceversa.
¿Aplicaciones matemáticas que
nos recomiendas?
A parte de Geogebra, otro
programa que está bien es
Mathematica, un programa que
se utiliza en la universidad que
realiza cálculos matemáticos
bastante potentes.
¿Te ayuda el Internet ?
Si, y mucho, ya que me permite
un acceso rápido a mucha in-
formación para mi trabajo,
como ejercicios nuevos, hacer
exámenes, historias y anécdo-
tas relacionadas con las ma-
temáticas, participar en foros
de matemáticas o también
hacer cursos online.
¿Qué opinas de las redes
sociales?
Solo las conozco de oídas a
través de mi familia o los
estudiantes y no las he utili-
zado personalmente por lo
que no puedo opinar sobre
ellas.
¿Windows o Mac?
Desde siempre he utilizado
Windows.
¿Cuál es el programa o apli-
cación que más utilizas?
Por mi trabajo, los progra-
mas que suelo utilizar más
son Excel y Word.
¿Para qué utilizas el ordena-
dor?
Para lo que suelo utilizar el
ordenador es para el trabajo
o para ver videos de interés
en Youtube y últimamente
para leer la prensa ya que he
dejado de comprar el perió-
dico.

NO SECURITY, NO BUSINESS
It Only Takes One Mistake
The majority of respondents
believe that security brea-
ches shouldn't be blamed on
just the IT department; all
officers of the company
should be held responsible.
Nearly half of these consu-
mers also think that once a bre-
ach occurs, companies should be
considered 'criminally negli-
gent.' Fifty one percent of the
respondents claimed that they
would take their business elsew-
here after a breach that com-
promises personal information,
PROTECT YOURSELF
To help protect your privacy
online, you need to decide
how much personal informa-
tion you would be happy to
share with the world. Keep in
mind that you may not be
able to remove information
you share once it's on the
internet.
When it comes to protecting
your personal information
online, you also need to make
sure you have good, strong
passwords for all your internet
accounts.
You should also have different
passwords for different web-
sites and you need to change
your passwords regularly.
Putting your personal informa-
tion and photos on the internet
may seem harmless at the ti-
me, but could tell
people where you
live or where your
children go to scho-
ol. Remembering to
think about what
information you give
away on the internet
is the best way to
protect your personal infor-
mation online.
CAREERS IN IT
1. Cloud architect
That storage space existing in
the ether can’t be touched li-
terally, it still needs to be or-
ganized and given an architec-
ture. That’s what this job is
for.
2. Mobile application develo-
per
Business are more heavily rel-
ying on IT professionals with
experience in this field than
ever before. Using basic coding
languages, developers will crea-
te programs for future iOS
and Android devices.
3. Software engineer
Software engineers are behind
all the programs we run on our
mobile devices and personal
computers – and there is a ve-
ry wide range of niche fields
you can work in.
5. Information technology
vendor manager
Slightly more hands-off com-
pared to some tech positions,
vendor managers oversee supply
when it comes to software and
hardware. This can mean anyt-
hing from Microsoft’s latest
word processor to health IT
programs for hospitals.
6. Computer forensic investi-
