„Edukacja ku wolności” – wprowadzenie do waldorfskiej perspektywy uczenia się i rozwoju
Get PDFIn the following paper, the author mainly describes what could be called the Waldorf education’s development didactics. This didactical approach is based on Rudolf Steiner’s idea of human development through seven-year periods. In Steiner’s time, this idea, which dates back to the ancient division of human life into heptomade, was, to some extent, still in use. In today’s developmental psychological discourse, the idea of the seven-year periods is virtually absent. One finds the term in the Waldorf pedagogical curricula and literature, but otherwise not. Steiner’s interpretation of the child’s development through the first three seven-year periods had a clear influence on the curricula and the didactics of the Waldorf school. There are given some examples of this below. In the first part, the author focuses on the concepts of imitation, rhythm, and play. In the second part, there are considered the life processes, imagination, and the arts. In the third part, the focus is on cognitive development, the development of complex emotions such as shame and guilt, and the development of autonomy. The author will also take a closer look at the ways in which the ideas on learning and development, emphasized by Steiner over a hundred years ago, could be seen in the light of recent research, especially in neuroscience.W artykule opisano głównie to, co można nazwać dydaktyką rozwoju oświaty waldorfskiej. To podejście dydaktyczne opiera się na idei rozwoju człowieka przez okresy siedmioletnie Rudolfa Steinera. W czasach Steinera idea ta, wywodząca się ze starożytnego podziału ludzkiego życia na heptomade, była do pewnego stopnia nadal w użyciu. We współczesnym rozwojowym dyskursie psychologicznym idea siedmioletnich okresów jest jednak praktycznie nieobecna. Termin ten znajduje się w programach i w literaturze pedagogicznej Waldorfa, ale poza tym nigdzie nie funkcjonuje. Interpretacja Steinera dotycząca rozwoju dziecka przez pierwsze trzy siedmioletnie okresy miała wyraźny wpływ na programy i dydaktykę szkoły waldorfskiej. W opracowaniu podano kilka przykładów. W części pierwszej skupiono się na pojęciach imitacji, rytmu i zabawy. W części drugiej omówiono procesy życiowe, wyobraźnię i sztukę. W części trzeciej skoncentrowano się na rozwoju poznawczym, rozwoju złożonych emocji (takich jak wstyd i poczucie winy) i rozwoju autonomii. Przyjrzano się również bliżej temu, w jaki sposób idee dotyczące uczenia się i rozwoju, które Steiner podkreślał ponad sto lat temu, można postrzegać w świetle ostatnich badań, zwłaszcza w neuronauce
Apokalypse nå! En undersøkelse av antroposofiske konspirasjonsfortellinger
Get PDFThe article examines how Rudolf Steiner’s anthroposophy and apocalypticism have been interpreted by anthroposophists who were confronted with Nazism in the 1930s/40s, as well as the impact these ideas have had within recent conspiracy theories related to the coronavirus. The article examines Steiner’s theodicy and how it is linked to so-called “resistance beings” who are said to have infiltrated and still infiltrate politics and technology. Discussing the term “occult imprisonment”, I reflect on the extent to which conspiracy narratives based on Steiner’s anthroposophy and apocalypticism place anthroposophy outside of time, so that it appears as a peculiar, sectarian Bessewisser culture. This is contrasted with interpretations of anthroposophy that are more commensurable with established discourses in science and culture
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe 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
Get PDF“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
Get PDFWe 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
Get PDFWe 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
