Relatório de prática de ensino supervisionada realizada no Conservatório de Música de Loulé - Francisco Rosado - O Contributo de Alan Dawson para o ensino da bateria
O relatório de prática de ensino supervisionada diz respeito ao percurso durante o estágio
realizado no Conservatório de Música de Loulé, com alunos de percussão, no ano letivo 2019/2020,
explorando-se as características do contexto de ensino, alunos e metodologias pedagógicas utilizadas.
O trabalho de investigação compreende a exploração dos contributos de Alan Dawson para o
ensino da bateria, que deixou um legado com fortes influências pedagógicas neste ensino, pautado
por metodologias inovadoras numa época exponencial para este instrumento. Pretende-se demonstrar
a importância do autor, avaliando os métodos da sua autoria e refletindo sobre os que ainda são
utilizados ou não, através da resposta de oito professores de bateria. A maioria reconhece e utiliza as
suas técnicas, ainda que não as associe diretamente ao autor. A razão mais apontada é a falta de
conhecimento.
Desta maneira, demonstram-se as influências pedagógicas de Dawson, verificando a sua
utilização no ensino; ABSTRACT: Supervised teaching practice report held at the Loulé Music Conservatory
– Francisco Rosado – The Alan Dawson contribution to drum teaching
The present report concerns the internship that took place at the Loulé Music Conservatory
with percussion students, in 2019/2020 with a reflection about supervised teaching practice with a
detailed characterization of the Conservatory, students and practice of the assisted classes.
The research work is an exploration of the Alan Dawson pedagogy for drum students. This
drummer left a legacy with strong pedagogical influences on drums teaching, guided by innovative
methodologies. The main goal is to demonstrate the importance of Dawson for the drum practice,
evaluating which methods are still used in drums teachers’ lessons. 8 teachers were interviewed, and
the most of it recognizes Dawson’s work, use his techniques even didn’t know that he was the original
developer of the techniques. The most point reason to not use some techniques is the lack of
knowledge.
It is demonstrated the pedagogical influence of Dawson in drum educational practice
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
The 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
“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
We 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
A modular methodology for converting large, complex books into usable, accessible and standards-compliant ebooks
This report describes the methodology used for ebook creation for the Glasgow Digital Library (GDL), and provides detailed instructions on how the same methodology could be used elsewhere. The document includes a description and explanation of the processes for ebook creation followed by a tutorial
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
We 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
We 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
