    La scuola nella prima Repubblica

    No full text
    Il contributo ripercorre la storia della scuola italiana nella seconda metà del ’900 (la cosiddetta “Prima Repubblica”): dal periodo successivo alla fine del fascismo e della II guerra mondiale fino ai primi anni ’90, quando entrano in crisi i partiti tradizionali e si avvia la trasformazione del sistema politico sul quale si basava la giovane democrazia italiana. Esso individua quattro fasi di evoluzione del sistema scolastico, corrispondenti a quattro stagioni politiche: la prima (1946-1957) è caratterizzata dalla defascistizzazione degli ordinamenti, da progetti di lotta all’analfabetismo e di rieducazione etico-civile; la seconda (1958-1968) vede l’impegno per attuare la Costituzione nella scuola declinato in un progetto di riforma organico (con la nascita della scuola media unica e della scuola materna statale); la terza (1969-1979) recepisce molte richieste del ’68 giovanile e studentesco attraverso una serie di riforme democratiche “molecolari” e diffuse, che liberalizzano gli accessi e modificano la cultura educativa degli insegnanti; la quarta inaugura la “via amministrativa” alla riforma (modernizzando la scuola secondaria e cambiando l’ordinamento della scuola elementare) e prelude al declino del sistema scolastico pubblico, causato dalle politiche neoliberiste della “Seconda Repubblica”

    Umiliazione nazionale, educazione al patriottismo e il memoriale del ‘Massacro di Lüshun’

    No full text
    In the 1990s, the Chinese leadership launched a large-scale “patriotic education” campaign. At that time, hundreds of historical sites were bestowed the status of “patriotic education bases”, playing a key role in rebuilding the collective historical memory and educating the people – above all, the younger generations – on the humiliations China had previously suffered due to aggression by foreign powers. Visits to the patriotic bases also became an integral part of school curricula. This paper focuses on the memorial dedicated to the victims of the Japanese occupation of Lüshun (Dalian, Liaoning province), which took place in November 1894. By also relying on data collected during a visit to the site in October 2017, it aims to investigate how this “patriotic education base” contributes to the official historical narrative of both China’s past and the Sino-Japanese conflicts

    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

    Full text link
    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

    Manuale di storia della scuola italiana. Dal Risorgimento al XXI secolo.

    No full text
    Questo manuale intende offrire una trattazione storica delle vicende di diversi livelli di istruzione (preprimaria, primaria, secondaria classica e secondaria tecnica-professionale e universitaria) e di alcuni grandi snodi tematici (religione, economia, genere) affidata ad autorevoli specialisti accademici dei diversi ambiti. L'opera intende fornire uno strumento di studio e di consultazione a studenti e studiosi di storia della scuola, anche nell'ambito dei percorsi formazione iniziale e permanente degli insegnanti, nonché un contributo discorso pubblico sulla scuola culturalmente informato

    Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts

    Full text link
    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
