HOW GLOBALIZATION CHANGED STUDENTS LIFE: BY ANA SAID

Hi, guys. The globalized world has been directly interfering in the way children and adolescents live and this occurs regardless of their socioeconomic level. As everyone somehow has access to the media, the way information reaches them causes serious changes in their behavior. Staying away from school during the period of social isolation of the pandemic, caused pedagogical delays for children and adolescents, but was also a reason for psychological problems. After the pandemic, we had an increase in children between 6-7 years old who did not learn to read, affecting even more the poorest and blackest children. Elementary school also presented a large number of students from the 6th, 7th, 8th and up to 9th grade who are not yet literate. The study Loss of Learning in the Pandemic, published a year ago, estimated that, in remote education, students learn, on average, only 17% of the content of Mathematics and 38% of the content of Portuguese Language learned in face-to-face classes. Excessive spending causes a cut in education. The lack of teachers, didactic material, structure of the old school and in need of reforms are consequences of these cuts. Spending by Brazilians abroad doubled in 2022, a year after the relaxation of restrictions caused by the Covid-19 pandemic between 2020 and 2021. The expenses totaled 12.18 billion dollars, the equivalent of 60 billion reais at the current rate, according to the Central Bank on Thursday, 26. With the high US dollar throughout 2022, many investors realized the need and importance of having investments abroad. It is a fact that part of the costs and expenses of Brazilians are linked to foreign currencies, such as the dollar. And the size of the invoice we pay every month may vary as the real values or devalues against other currencies. It is not something intuitive, but from commodities such as fuel, to medicines or even Netflix, to name a few examples, are expenses present in our routine that can "tend" our budget in unfavorable scenarios. Consequently, to protect our assets is to have sources of income in dollars, for example. The head of the IMF recalled that the pandemic claimed more than 1 million lives. She emphasized "economic calmness" with the imminent contraction of the world economy by 4.4% this year, the decline in production of US$ 11 trillion in 2021, despair with the disturbances and the first increase in poverty in decades. The recommendations include careful surveillance of the risks of high levels of indebtedness, which are expected to increase significantly in 2021. In advanced economies, debts may represent 125% of Gross Domestic Product, GDP. In emerging markets the proportion should reach 65% and in low-income countries 50%. The IMF has already allocated more than $100 billion in loans and said it has more substantial resources from the total capacity of $1 trillion to support countries in this phase of crisis. I believe that the government's disregard for health and education was one of the main reasons for these problems. In addition, there was a great rivalry between the left and the right at a time when they should focus on health. While a political party refused to send resources to another place because the place had another political party people were dying. ASS: Ana
