Se estructuran las dimensiones abordadas desde lo epistemológico, ontológico y metdologico. La metodología planteada optará por el método de la Teoría Fundamentada, de acuerdo con Sandín (2003), se esbozalos elementos conceptuales desde la revisión teorica y documental y su estructura desde lo metodológico.Recibido: 03/09/2020 Aceptado: 27/09/2020The objective of this article is to present initial elements for the construction of the doctoral thesis on the Deaf culture, its beliefs, experiences, values and its pedagogical vision; citing some authors, dedicated to the study of the population with Hearing Impairment, and at the same time, bringing hearing people closer to the recognition of the Bilingual Bicultural Model of the Deaf. The dimensions addressed are structured from the epistemological, ontological and methodological. The proposed methodology will opt for the Grounded Theory method, according to Sandín (2003), the conceptual elements are outlined from the theoretical and documentary review and its structure from the methodological point of view

    The objective of the research was to evaluate the Strategic Management for the application of the Bilingual Bicultural Bilingual Model for the Deaf Schoolchild, in the Bolivarian Special Education Unit “Tulio Viera Portillo”, located in the Neighborhood Unit of San Cristóbal, Táchira state. The study was located in a field research, of descriptive, non-experimental character; in the modality of feasible project, with a quantitative approach. The population consisted of 2 directors and 20 teachers of the referred institution, to whom two instruments were applied respectively, consisting of a questionnaire made up of open questions at the beginning, in reference to the profile of the subjects under study and the other items, of closed order or by Lickert type scales, with alternative answers (always, almost always, sometimes, almost never and never). The same was previously validated under the technique of “expert judgment” and its reliability was determined through a pilot test administered at the Bolivarian Special Education Unit “Ofelia Tancredi de Corredor”, located in the state of Merida, in order to apply the Cronbach's Alpha coefficient, which reflected a value of 0.902, considered of very high magnitude. Among the results obtained, substantial weaknesses were found regarding the management process, the teacher's management profile and the knowledge of the Bilingual Bicultural Model of the population under study.La investigación tuvo como objetivo, Evaluar la Gestión Estratégica para la aplicación del Modelo Bilingüe Bicultural del escolar Sordo, en la Unidad Educativa Especial Bolivariana “Tulio Viera Portillo”, ubicada en la Unidad Vecinal de San Cristóbal, estado Táchira. El estudio se ubicó en una investigación de campo, de carácter descriptivo, no experimental; en la modalidad de proyecto factible, con un enfoque cuantitativo. La población estuvo conformada por 2 directivos y 20 docentes de la referida institución, a quienes se le aplicó dos instrumentos respectivamente, constituido por un cuestionario conformado por preguntas abiertas al inicio, en referencia al perfil de los sujetos objeto de estudio y los demás ítems, de orden cerrado o por escalas tipo Lickert, con alternativas de respuestas (siempre, casi siempre, algunas veces, casi nunca y nunca). El mismo, fue previamente validado bajo la técnica de “Juicio de expertos” y determinada su confiabilidad a través de una prueba piloto administrada en la Unidad Educativa Especial Bolivariana “Ofelia Tancredi de Corredor”, ubicada en el estado Mérida, a efecto de aplicar el coeficiente de Alfa de Cronbach y el cual reflejó un valor de 0.902, considerado de magnitud muy alta. Dentro de los resultados obtenidos, se encontraron debilidades sustanciales en cuanto al proceso gerencial, perfil gerencial del docente y en el conocimiento del Modelo Bilingüe Bicultural de la población objeto de estudio

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    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

    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
