OUR VISION:

AT INACAP WE SEE HUMAN BEINGS AS PEOPLE ENDOWED WITH INTELLIGENCE AND GOODWILL, AND, IN PROVIDING EDUCATION, CONSIDER EACH PERSON TO BE UNIQUE ACCORDING TO HIS OR HER AGE AND EXPERIENCES WITH DIFFERING DEGREES OF CAPACITIES AND ABILITIES.

OUR MISSION:

INACAP SEEKS TO EDUCATE ADULTS BY PROVIDING COMPETENCE IN THE FORM OF KNOWLEDGE APTITUDES, SKILLS AND ABILITIES WHILE IMPARTING VALUES WHICH ALLOW THEM TO DEVELOP AS RESPONSIBLE, FULLY INTEGRATED AND AUTONOMOUS CITIZENS. WE ASPIRE TO PRODUCE ADULTS WHO ARE PRODUCTIVE IN A VARIETY OF PROFESSIONS, INDUSTRIES AND ACTIVITIES, AND CAN COMPETE IN THE GLOBAL ECONOMY IN WHICH CHILE IS INVOLVED. WE BELIEVE THIS TO BE NECESSARY IN ORDER TO IMPROVE THE SOCIOECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT OF CHILE AND, TO THIS END, WE USE PEDAGOGY FOCUSED ON CONTEXTUALIZED LEARNING AND PRACTICE.

‘Poem 20’.-Pablo Neruda

ACTIVITY: Listen to the narrator

I can write the saddest lines tonight.
Write for example: ‘The night is fractured
and they shiver, blue, those stars, in the distance’
The night wind turns in the sky and sings.
I can write the saddest lines tonight.
I loved her, sometimes she loved me too.
On nights like these I held her in my arms.
I kissed her greatly under the infinite sky.
She loved me, sometimes I loved her too.
How could I not have loved her huge, still eyes.
I can write the saddest lines tonight.
To think I don’t have her, to feel I have lost her.
Hear the vast night, vaster without her.
Lines fall on the soul like dew on the grass.
What does it matter that I couldn’t keep her.
The night is fractured and she is not with me.
That is all. Someone sings far off. Far off,
my soul is not content to have lost her.
As though to reach her, my sight looks for her.
My heart looks for her: she is not with me
The same night whitens, in the same branches.
We, from that time, we are not the same.
I don’t love her, that’s certain, but how I loved her.
My voice tried to find the breeze to reach her.
Another’s kisses on her, like my kisses.
Her voice, her bright body, infinite eyes.
I don’t love her, that’s certain, but perhaps I love her.
Love is brief: forgetting lasts so long.
Since, on these nights, I held her in my arms,
my soul is not content to have lost her.
Though this is the last pain she will make me suffer,
and these are the last lines I will write for her.

‘Desiderata’.-Anonymous

ACTIVITY: Listen to the narrator

Go placidly amid the noise and haste

And remember what peace there may be in silence

As far as possible, without surrender

Be on good terms with all persons.

Speak your truth quietly and clearly,

And listen to others,

Even the dull and ignorant,

They too have their own story.

Avoid loud and aggressive persons,

They are vexations to the spirit.

If you compare yourself to others,

You may become vane and bitther

For always there will be greater

And lesser persons than yourself.

Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans.

Keep interested in your own career,

However humble, it is a real possession

In the changing fortunes of time.

Exercise caution in your business affairs,

For the world is full of trickery.

But let this not blind you,

To what virtue there is.

Many persons strive for high ideals,

And everywhere life is full of heroism.

Be yourself, especially do not feign affection,

Neither be cynical about love,

For in the face of all aridity and disenchantment

It is as perennial as the grass.

Take kindly the council of the years,

Gracefully surrendering the things of youth.

Nurture strength of spirit

To shield you in sudden misfortune.

But do not distress yourself with imaginings.

Many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness.

Beyond a wholesome discipline,

Be gentle with yourself.

You are a child of the universe

No less than the trees and the stars,

You have a right to be here.

And whether or not,

It is clear to you,

No doubt the universe is unfolding as it should.

Therefore, be at peace with God,

Whatever you conceive him to be,

And whatever your labours and aspirations,

In the noisy confusion of life,

With all its sham,

Drudgery and broken dreams,

It is still a beautiful world.

Be careful, strive to be happy

Psalm 23.- A psalm of David

The LORD is my shepherd, I shall not be in want.
He makes me lie down in green pastures;
He leads me beside quiet waters.
He restores my soul;
He guides me in the paths of righteousness

For His name's sake.

Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil, for you are with me;
Your rod and your staff, they comfort me.
