The impact of teachers’ music training on flow experience and emotion regulation of students and teachers in the framework of LINK project
No full textResumo: Este artigo apresenta um estudo de impacto em courso no âmbito do projeto europeu LINK-Aprendizagem em uma nova chave. O projeto visa explorar entendimento teórico e prático desenvolvido pela especialista em músicoterapia e educação musical através de aplicações com os professores e educadores em contextos de aula desafiadoras. Os efeitos sobre os alunos e os professores da formação musical específica oferecida aos professores envolvidos no projeto serão estudados através dos seguintes construções: 1) fluxo; 2) regulação da emoção; 3) comunicação; 4) inclusão. Um design de pré e pós-teste foi proposto, juntamente com estudos de caso, grupos de foco, vídeo observação e questionários (mixed-method), no âmbito da pesquisa-ação participativa. Os resultados contribuem para avaliar a eficácia da formação dos professores e implementar o Manual de Formação e o Toolkit para os professores. Vamos primeiro introduzir a base teórica do estudo de impacto, então o método, os resultados esperados, e algumas conclusões.
Palavras-chave: LINK, educação musical, músicoterapia, fluxo, regulação da emoção.This paper introduces the Impact study 2 being undertaken in the framework of the European project LINK-Learning in A New Key. The project aims at exploiting theoretical understandings and practical know how developed by expert in music therapy and music education through applications with teachers and educationalists in challenging classroom contexts. The impact on the students and the teachers of the specific music training offered to teachers involved in the project will be indagate through the following constructs: 1) flow; 2) emotion regulation; 3) communication in music experience; 4) inclusion. A pre and post-test design has been proposed, together with case-studies, focus groups, video recordings observation and questionnaires (mixed-method), in the framework of participatory action research. The results will contribute to evaluate the effectiveness of the teachers’ training and implement the Training Manual and the ToolKit for teachers. In this paper, we will first introduce the theoretical background, then the method, the expected results, and some conclusions
"Un giorno con Gionata": story-telling con il MIROR-Composition
No full textIl Capitolo 5, di Anna Rita Addessi e Luisa Bonfiglioli, presenta un progetto didattico svolto con il MIROR-Compo in una classe seconda di una scuola primaria della provincia di Bologna, nell’inverno 2012. Il software MIROR-Compo è qui utilizzato dai bambini per comporre la colonna sonora di una storia. L’attività di composizione con il software è inserita all’interno di un percorso interdisciplinare che vede coinvolte anche attività di analisi e comprensione del testo della storia, attività di rappresentazione grafica e pittorica e attività di composizione con lo strumentario didattico. La finalità principale è quella di creare un contesto nel quale permettere al bambino di esprimersi attraverso i suoni e di farlo secondo modalità compositive “per prova ed errori”. Le attività seguono diverse fasi: il racconto, la lettura e l’ascolto della storia, la costruzione dello storyboard, la composizione del soundtrack con lo strumentario musicale didattico, la composizione con il MIROR-Compo, il montaggio dello storyboard con la composizione musicale, l’ascolto e la condivisione delle composizioni da parte dei bambini e infine i rilanci dell’insegnante. Le autrici, partendo da questa attività, mettono in evidenza quali siano i processi compositivi stimolati nel bambino dal sistema MIROR-Compo e come questi sembri funzionare come una sorta di “scaffolding musicale” che permette a ciascun bambino o gruppo di bambini di inventare contenuti musicali diversi, a seconda del proprio gusto e del proprio senso della forma. In questo processo compositivo l’unità non è più la singola nota ma le frasi musicali generate da sistema che il bambino “sceglie” e “compone” per dare forma ad una sequenza narrativa e simbolica. Concludono, le autrici, mettendo in evidenza lo stretto rapporto che l’interazione riflessiva mediante il MIROR-Compo stabilisce tra i processi di improvvisazione e di composizione nei bambini
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
