The Transformative Role of Artificial Intelligence in Modern Education
No full textThe Fourth Industrial Revolution has led to significant advances in digital devices and social media, contributing to the emergence of artificial intelligence (AI) as a key tool for improving the educational process. Computing and information technologies have enabled the use of computers in education, particularly in computer-assisted instruction and improving classroom interaction. Artificial intelligence in education (AIEd) aims to support teaching strategies, enhance student learning, and improve educational outcomes through performance monitoring, adaptive learning, providing educational resource recommendations, and identifying educational gaps. The study focuses on exploring the role of AI applications in improving the quality of learning, assuming that these applications contribute to developing the educational process, addressing traditional challenges, and improving the performance of teachers and students. The study adopted a descriptive-analytical approach and collected data through a survey of academics and teachers in Iraq during the 2024-2025 academic year. The study recommends holding training workshops, providing necessary resources, promoting the effective use of AI applications, and developing future development plans, while proposing additional research on innovation and interactive lesson design
E-governance applications and usage patterns in developing countries
Full text linkE-Governance integrates the use and implementation of technology based suites and modules for the usage in the public domain so that the common persons can be able to use this segment without harassment in public offices. The approach of e-governance associates the online services so that the real time analytics and the implementation can be done to the public services without any delay and with higher degree of accuracy. The use of e-governance is quite prominent in assorted streams whereby the citizen identification and the government services are required to be associated so that the higher performance and cumulative recital is there. The paradigm and implementation perspectives of e-governance are required in the citizens based services for governance and services towards the access to government schemes and thereby this manuscript is having the key focus in this segment for the usage patterns of e-governance in the assorted aspects with specific scenarios of developing countries. In this research work, the adoption and integration of e-governance is associated as the key point towards the smart applications in the smart environment. For the development and growth of any country, there is need to associate the technology based products and services. These are the key points in the smart environment with the e-governance in any region. This work is pointing out these perspectives of e-governance and online services
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
Full text link“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Full text linkWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Full text linkWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
No full textWe have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
