No full textThis research is about young people of the millennial generation of the Bachelor of Science in Education of the Faculty of Humanities, Social Sciences and Guaraní Culture of the National University of ItapúaParaguay, year, 2019; the general objective was to analyze the characteristics of the millennial generation youth; The methodology corresponds to the mixed approach with analytical scope, because qualitative and quantitative data were collected and analyzed through statistical graphs and interpretations of the characteristics of this generation; semistructured questionnaires validated by experts Were used as an instrument the most relevant results show that the majority of millennial students come from disintegrated families and live with one of the parents, others live in rent and are economically dependent; In the workplace, most do not work, however, a significant percentage do work and others do some non-fixed work activities and study. In academics, the result indicates that the majority of teacher’s work using the methodology of aulic project (38 %), after extension (31%) and to a lesser degree of research (6 %).Millennials live with technological tools, are self-taught, anxious, expect rewards and live in an increasingly interrelated and virtually hyperconnected world.Esta investigación trata de los jóvenes de la generación millennials de la carrera Licenciatura en Ciencias de la Educación de la Facultad de Humanidades, Ciencias Sociales y Cultura Guaraní de la Universidad Nacional de Itapúa-Paraguay, en el año 2019. El objetivo general fue analizar las características de los jóvenes de la generación millennials, mientras que la metodología corresponde al enfoque mixto con alcance analítico. Se recolectaron y se analizaron datos cualitativos y cuantitativos a través de gráficos estadísticos y de interpretaciones de las características de esta generación. Se utilizó como instrumento el cuestionario semiestructurado validado por expertos. Los resultados más relevantes demuestran que la mayoría de los estudiantes millennials provienen de familias disgregadas y viven con uno de los progenitores, otros viven en alquiler y económicamente son dependientes. Respecto al ámbito laboral la mayoría no trabaja; sin embargo, un porcentaje significativo sí trabaja y otros realizan algunas actividades laborales no fijas y a la vez estudian. En lo académico, el resultado denota que la mayoría de los docentes trabajan, utilizando la metodología del proyecto áulico (38 %), luego de extensión (31 %) y en menor grado de investigación (6 %). Los millennials conviven con las herramientas tecnológicas, son autodidactas, ansiosos, esperan recompensas y viven en un mundo cada vez más interrelacionado e hiper conectado virtualmente
Enfoque por competencias-Perspectivas de docentes de una unidad académica de gestión pública, para la implementación del sistema de créditos en la Educación Superior
Get PDFThe research entitled Approach by competencies - Perspectives for the implementation of the credit system in Higher Education in Paraguay, aims to analyze the situation of the approach by competencies and its relationship with the perspective for the implementation of the credit system in Paraguay. Methodologically it had a mixed, analytical approach; The population was made up of teachers from the National University of Itapúa, from the Faculty of Humanities, Social Sciences and Guaraní Culture. Totaling 50 teachers and the sample 45 teachers. Among the most notable results, it was determined that 59% of teachers stated that a competency-based curriculum allows for more active learning; and the same percentage stated that it helps students solve life problems; Another important fact to highlight is that 78% of teachers take into account the three dimensions: cognitive, procedural and attitudinal. Regarding the linking of the credit system with the competency-based approach, it has been consulted, according to his perception as a university professional, when transferring the current curriculum to the Higher Education Credit System (SCES) whether it will improve educational quality at this level; The response was quite varied, with 37% stating that they somewhat agreed, while 30% strongly agreed and 22% neither agreed nor disagreed. In conclusion, from the teaching perspective, the competency-based approach is related to the implementation of the credit system in Paraguay.La investigación titulada Enfoque por competencias - Perspectivas para la implementación del sistema de créditos en la Educación Superior en el Paraguay, tiene por objetivo analizar la situación del enfoque por competencias y su relación con la perspectiva para la implementación del sistema de créditos en Paraguay. Metodológicamente tuvo un enfoque mixto, de tipo analítica; la población estuvo compuesta por docentes de la Universidad Nacional de Itapúa, de la Facultad de Humanidades, Ciencias Sociales y Cultura Guaraní.

Proyectos pedagógicos y sus incidencias en el aprendizaje de los estudiantes de la Educación Media
No full textThis research addresses the contribution of pedagogical projects to the teaching work and its impact on the learning process of middle school students in the district of Cambyretá during the 2018 school year; the importance of the work lies in the fact that pedagogical projects, are presented as work methodologies to encourage students’ learning process, promoting their creativity, curiosity, teamwork and the solution of everyday and concrete problems to achieve significant learning. The objective was to determine the contribution of pedagogical projects as a didactic strategy for the development of learning processes in middle school students in the district of Cambyretá. The methodology was quantitative, descriptive and cross-sectional. The population studied included 631 students; the sample was 309 students who were selected using statistical technique with a confidence level of 95%. The most relevant results indicate that the projects are methodological proposals that benefit the strengthening of teamwork, meaningful learning, cooperation and academic performance. The teachers accompany the elaboration and execution of the project, but do not apply the project methodology efficiently and effectively.Esta investigación aborda la contribución de los proyectos pedagógicos al trabajo docente y su incidencia en el proceso de aprendizaje de los estudiantes del nivel medio del distrito de Cambyretá durante el año lectivo 2018.

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
