Expressive and communicational properties of drawings in primary school
No full textCrtež je medij koji postavlja pitanja i stimulira odgovor. Svjedočimo kako su autori kroz
povijest putem crteža zapisivali, prenosili poruke, događaje, a naposljetku i izražavali vlastite
misli. Upotrebljavajući razne linije, krivulje, mrlje oslikavali su stanja, strahove, ali i ostale
prisutne emocije. Ono što povezuje svaki crtež, bilo da se radi o umjetničkom ili dječjem, upravo
je komunikacija koja se ostvaruje kroz djelo.
Dječji crtež ima svoja karakteristična obilježja s obzirom na dob, ali ono što razlikuje
svakoga od njih je vlastito viđenje svijeta i okoline koja ga okružuje. Putem crteža ono uči o sebi,
spoznaje svoje mogućnosti, usvaja i upotpunjuje svoj unutarnji svijet. Tijekom procesa školovanja
djeca usvajaju vještinu čitanja i pisanja, ali im je crtež najbliže sredstvo putem kojeg ostvaruju
komunikaciju s okolinom, a u istraživačkom dijelu rada se upravo istražuje zastupljenost crteža u
različitim nastavnim predmetima. U razrednoj nastavi on ima ključnu ulogu pri izražavanju i
prepoznavanju djetetovog unutarnjeg stanja. Naime, prilikom crtanja dijete reagira spontano i
nesvjesno te se uočavaju elementi koji su obično skriveni ili pripadaju potisnutim razinama
svijesti. Stoga, nije neuobičajeno da se crtež primjenjuje i kao pomoćna metoda u odgojno –
obrazovnim te terapijskim intervencijama.A drawing is a medium which asks questions and stimulates the answers. We are witnesses
to the fact that authors have, throughout history, written and passed on messages, events and,
finally, their own thoughts by means of drawings. Using various lines, curves and stains, they have
depicted various mental states, fears and other emotions that are present. What connects every
drawing, whether it's a work of art or a child's one, is the communication which is realized through
a certain piece.
A child's drawing has its distinctive features, which depend on the age of its author, but
what makes it different is their own worldview and understanding of the environment that
surrounds them. Through the act of drawing, children learn about themselves, they acknowledge
their possibilities, acquire and complete their inner world. During the schooling process, children
adopt the skills of reading and writing, but the drawing is the closest tool for communication with
the environment and the work researches the presence of drawing in various teaching subjects. In
classroom teaching, it has a key role in expressing and recognizing a child's inner state. In other
words, when a child draws, it reacts spontaneously and unconsciously, and the elements, which
are usually hidden or belong to the suppressed levels of consciousness, can be recognized.
Therefore, it is not uncommon for a drawing to be applied as an auxiliary method in educational
and therapeutic interventions
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

Author Under Sail The Imagination of Jack London, 1893-1902
No full textIn Author Under Sail, Jay Williams offers the first complete literary biography of Jack London as a professional writer engaged in the labor of writing. It examines the authorial imagination in London's work, the use of imagination in both his fiction and nonfiction, and the ways he defined imagination in the creative process in his business dealings with his publishers, editors, and agents. In this first volume of a two-volume biography, Williams traverses the years 1893 to 1902, from London's "Story of a Typhoon" to The People of the Abyss. The Jack London who emerges in the pages of Author Under Sail is a writer whose partnership with publishers, most notably his productive alliance with George Brett of Macmillan, was one of the most formative in American literary history. London pioneered many author models during the heyday of realism and naturalism, blurring the boundaries of these popular genres by focusing on absorption and theatricality and the representation of the seen and unseen. London created an impassioned, sincere, and extremely personal realism unlike that of other American writers of the time. Author Under Sail is a literary tour de force that reveals the full range of London as writer, creative citizen, and entrepreneur at the same time it sheds light on the maverick side of machine-age literature.Intro -- Title Page -- Copyright Page -- Dedication -- Contents -- Acknowledgments -- Introduction -- 1.
