| How to get around in the conference
location and how to find your session
|
The main building complex of the National University of Pedagogy is a
monumental, yet compact structure surrounded by other heavy cultural
institutions on all sides. The building complex (erected in 1978) has
incorporated several elements that might resemble pre-Hispanic Central
Mexican architecture in its use of the space. All the buildings are
connected with a labyrinth of bridges, stairways and patios surrounding
the Central Patio which is frequently used as an open air auditorium for cultural and
academic events. During the conference "Testimonial Texts", the monumental Central Patio will
be the location of art exhibitions by local and international artists,
experimental theater performances and concerts.
| All conference sessions and other related events will be held in
spaces surrounding the Central Patio that has the name La Explanada Central, with the exception of the keynote speeches
every morning at 10:00 that will be held in the Auditorium of El
Colegio de México, which is located next to the UPN. |
 |
Most conference sessions will be held in Auditorium C and Auditorium D
of the UPN, with the exception of the 1st of June, when there will be no parallel
sessions, only plenary sessions that will be held in Auditorium A, which
also is easily accessible from the Explanada Central.
| In the afternoon of the 1st of June, a number of panel sessions
will also be held in "Sala Audiovisual 3" of the Library
Gregorio Torres Quintero. |
 |
|
 |
After entering the main gate of the University, you
will see this central passage with a stairway. To get to the
conference, you must walk straight ahead following this passage and
walk up the stairs until you reach La Explanada Central. |
 |
You know that you have reached the Explanada Central
when you see this wall. When you have arrived here, you will already
see the banner of the conference, as well as the registration
tables. |
 |
To your right you will see the library main entrance,
where you can also buy snacks, candy and refreshments from ambulant
vendors that set up their tables here from the early morning
on. |
 |
To your left you will see this view. From Tuesday 30th
of May 2006, this will be where the registration tables and
conference related information stands will be located. |
 |
When you have arrived here, you will already be in the
middle of the conference and there will no further possibilities to
loose your path. If you walk up the stairs, you will immediately
find Auditorium C and Auditorium D at your right. |
|
|
 |
This is the entrance to Auditorium C and D seen from
the south. In this area there will also be information stands by
various institutions, organizations and publishers as well as art
exhibitions. |
 |
If you continue down the passage after the auditoria,
the walls will turn red. Here you will find the University Book
Store (La Libreria, which means bookstore and NOT library...) In a
show case at the entrance recent publications by faculty and staff
at the UPN is presented. |
For the time being, one conference
delegate, Sandra Cantoral, has her book on display here:
|
Cantoral
Uriza, Sandra. La identidad cultural en la educación básica
/ Sandra Cantoral Uriza. -- México : UPN, 2000. - 160 p. ; 22
cm. -- (Colección Textos ; 15) - 378.007/T355/15 |
|
 |
After the book store, you will find the entrance to
the offices of the "Sindicato Académico de la UPN" where
you usually will find someone of the conference organisers before
and during the conference. If you have any questions about anything,
you will usually find someone here that can help you. |
