Écrire l’histoire des élèves en Italie aux XIXe et XXe siècles
No full textLa storia degli studenti in Italia costituisce un campo di ricerca emergente, ma sul quale non esiste ancora alcun studio sistematico. Il rinnovamento storiografico in corso da alcuni decenni ha posto le basi per colmare questa lacuna e - allo stesso tempo - inaugurare nuovi percorsi di ricerca. L'articolo, dopo aver passato in rassegna alcuni passaggi chiave della recente storiografia educativa italiana che hanno consentito questo mutamento di paradigma e l'apertura di nuovi filone d'indagine, si concenta sulla storia degli studenti, della loro soggettività, della loro esperienza vissuta in classe. In questo quadro, si propone una definizione dello "studente" funzionale alla piena comprensione della sua storia, intesa come storia della sua formazione culturale e sociale. L'articolo pone infine l'accento sulle fonti e i metodi di ricerca utilizzati per promuovere in modo più organico la storia degli studenti, ponendo particolarmente in risalto il valore euristico dell'impiego delle scritture infantili. L’articolo fa parte del numero monografico “Pour une histoire renouvelée des élèves (XVIe-XXIe siècles). Volume 1 : approches historiographiques”, a cura di Jean-François Condette e Véronique Castagnet (pp. 9-200)
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
HUBS OF NATIONAL EDUCATION AND PATRIOTIC FEELING: ITALIAN SCHOOLS IN THE RIO GRANDE DO SUL DURING THE YEARS OF COLONIZATION AT THE END OF THE 19 TH CENTURY (1875 - 1898)
No full textAbstract This article explores the origin and development of Italian schools subsidized by the royal Italian government in the Rio Grande do Sul during the second and third phase of Italian migrants' colonization of Southern Brazil. The author makes use of mostly inedited documentation to expand knowledge around the emergence of ethnicity-based elementary schools during the transition period from the end of the Brazilian Empire to the formation of Republican Federal States. By referring to reports sent to consular offices, this article allows analyzing the geography of state-sponsored Italian schools in the Rio Grande do Sul as well as their features. It elaborates on the heterogeneity of their nature, organizational structures and teachers' conditions, and points out the difference between the schools sponsored by mutual support associations and the ones developed by private teachers. Moreover, the author investigates the viewpoints, the mentality and the changing strategies enacted by consular offices during the last decade of the 19th century in order to ensure the maintenance of an educational network for the alphabetization of the children of Italian migrants and perpetuation of national feelings. More particularly, the article sheds light on the different perspectives of the consuls in relation to the rural or urban context of schools.</p
