Business internships are part of the wide range of situations that support productive in the University-Industry collaboration. In this context, business practices become favorable places where both business objectives and universities converge. This paper aims to understand two topics. Firstly, the fundamentals of business internships as a component of training by having real-world problems and based on relevant characterization of these experiences. Secondly the paper proposes a methodology of how to achieve internships as a place to search common objectives between the firms and universities. For this second objective is proposed a conceptual model to identify problems together, taking advantage of experience for businesses and updated knowledge developed within the university. Las prácticas o pasantías empresariales son parte de la amplia gama de situaciones que soportan las colaboraciones productivas en la relación Universidad-Empresa. En este contexto, las prácticas empresariales se convierten en lugares propicios en los que confluyen los objetivos empresariales y los de las universidades. Este documento está orientado a comprender por una parte los fundamentos de las prácticas empresariales como un componente de formación y beneficio de experiencia a través de problemas reales partiendo de una relevante caracterización de la práctica, y por otra parte el documento propone una metodología de cómo lograr prácticas empresariales que sean lugares de búsqueda de objetivos comunes entre la Empresa y la Universidad. Para este último propósito se propone un modelo conceptual que llega a identificar problemas empresariales, desde una perspectiva de análisis, basados en la experiencia y el conocimiento acumulado de los procesos académicos de formación desarrollado al interior de la universidad representada en los estudiantes y otros actores de la comunidad académica.

Objective. This work sought to learn of the experiences of homeless children and understand the meanings they give to environments they construct within these spaces. The study took place in Medellín, Colombia in 2015. Methods. Ours was a qualitative research with ethnographic approach. Non-structured interviews and observations were conducted; a field diary was kept. Results. The street, although a space of public use, is converted by children into their private space; they carry in it almost all their activities and construct two big environments: that of the street that attracts and educates and that of the work that is transitory because it is performed to survive. These children dream with an ideal environment that allows them to live quietly. Conclusion. Children convert the street into a private place where they carry out their daily practices: socializing, working, sleeping, having fun, and relaxing, that is, a place of social construction.
