    Este trabalho examina as manifestações psíquicas que dificultam a aprendizagem de língua estrangeira por adultos e análisa as possibilidades de intervenção eficaz a fim de auxiliar e facilitar o processo de aquisição lingüística. Tentamos compreender quem são esses aprendizes, suas dificuldades para aprender uma língua estrangeira  e as relações que eles mantêm com a língua e a cultura estrangeiras, com o professor  e com a situação educativa. Refletimos ainda sobre as ações   viáveis   no   quadro   atual   do ensino de línguas para adultos tais como a utilização de estratégias de aprendizagem  e de   atividades   lúdicas.   O   artigo   apresenta   um   programa de intervenção – o projeto de escuta sistemática  – que considera  os aspectos subjetivos da aprendizagem

    The central argument of this paper is that language teaching should include the humanistic perspective of learning to live and learning to be thus promoting the development of ethnoculturally positive and empathic attitudes: openness to differences, development of otherness and identification with humanity. The ethical purpose of education through and for languages is discussed considering the concept of identification with all humanity and in the context of education for global citizenship. The article also examines the use of an open digital educational resources, specifically audiovisual documentaries, as a conducive didactic strategy that can lead to a critical reflection on the unity-diversity binomial of the human condition. It presents an illustration of the educational use of the documentary movie Human as a possibility to approach the socioemotional dimension of language learning in the field of education for global citizenship.Este trabalho parte da premissa de que o ensino de línguas deve incluir o viés humanista do saber ser e do saber conviver a fim de favorecer o desenvolvimento de atitudes etnoculturalmente positivas e empáticas: abertura para as diferenças, desenvolvimento da alteridade e identificação com a humanidade. O sentido ético da educação pelas e para as línguas é discutido à luz do conceito de identificação com toda a humanidade no contexto da educação para a cidadania global. O artigo também examina o uso de recursos educacionais digitais abertos, especificamente documentários audiovisuais, como estratégia didática contributiva para uma reflexão crítica sobre o binômio unidade-diversidade da condição humana. Apresenta, ainda, uma ilustração de possibilidade didática do uso do documentário Human no contexto da aprendizagem de línguas para abordar a dimensão socioemocional no campo da educação para a cidadania global

    Neste trabalho, abordamos as interfaces entre políticaslingüísticas e educação, em relação às línguas e culturas estrangeirasnos níveis nacional e local. Partindo do pressuposto de que o trabalhodo educador com línguas e culturas estrangeiras é essencialmente político,e não apenas técnico, analisamos algumas implicações de tentativas deintervenção política sobre situações lingüísticas. Considerando a especificidadeda atuação dos professores de línguas e culturas estrangeiras, refletimossobre a necessidade estratégica de uma formação que possibilite a concretizaçãode um projeto educacional inclusivo e democrático de ensino de línguase culturas estrangeiras na escola regular

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    Get PDF
    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

    Get PDF
    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

    Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts

    Get PDF
    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

    No full text
    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
