PlusUn curso muy entretenido, con una muy buena profesora guía para poder crear mi propia historia. El video final es muy interesante como resumen de todo lo aprendido y las lecturas complementarias son importantes. Recomendable de todas maneras el video de Eduardo Galeano y su historia en Bolivia.
