Dai percorsi di istruzione/formazione all'accesso ai diritti: verso un modello sociale di cittadinanza attiva
No full textNell’ultimo decennio numerosi Paesi Europei hanno operato per riformare la struttura dei propri sistemi di istruzione e di formazione al fine di garantire pari opportunità di genere nell’accesso ai percorsi educativi, nell’ottica di una mirata promozione dell’inclusione e della “cittadinanza attiva” delle donne. Queste strategie politiche sono state fortemente incentivate dal Consiglio Europeo di Lisbona del marzo 2000 per realizzare entro il 2010 obiettivi strategici e fra loro interrelati quali un’economia basata sulla conoscenza, pari opportunità e inclusione sociale, a partire da adeguati percorsi di istruzione e formazione. Cosa è effettivamente avvenuto dopo le dichiarazioni ufficiali? Con quali misure l’Unione Europea ha tentato di realizzare e quali risultati ha ottenuto rispetto agli obiettivi di inclusione e di coesione sociale, facendo leva sui sistemi di istruzione e di formazione europei? Attraverso i dati del decennio sui livelli di istruzione della popolazione europea, sulle modalità e gli esiti della partecipazione al lavoro e sull’esercizio del diritto di cittadinanza - con particolare riferimento alle donne – sarà possibile verificare l’ipotesi di fondo del presente contributo. Le politiche educative e le strategie di riforma messe in atto nei differenti modelli di welfare europei, finalizzate a garantire le pari opportunità di genere nell’accesso all’istruzione e alla formazione e, di conseguenza, ad acquisire una maggiore sicurezza sociale, risultano più efficaci se perseguono obiettivi di “sviluppo globale” delle persone ovvero, in altre parole, se riescono a sostenere le conoscenze, le competenze e le abilità necessarie per sviluppare la partecipazione attiva alla cittadinanza (oltre alle conoscenze/competenze/abilità di base, tecniche, professionali, si fa riferimento, per esempio, all’autostima, alla consapevolezza dell’importanza di conoscere i propri diritti e di contribuire alla vita collettiva, alla necessità di disporre dei mezzi e degli strumenti per conoscere e usufruire delle “condizioni” per poterlo fare).In the last decade a number of European countries have worked to reform the structure of their systems of education and training in order to ensure gender equality in access to educational opportunities , with a view to a targeted promotion of inclusion and " citizenship active " women . These strategies, policies have been strongly encouraged by the European Council in Lisbon in March 2000 in order to achieve strategic objectives by 2010 and between their interrelated such as knowledge-based economy , equal opportunities and social inclusion , starting with adequate vocational education and training . What actually happened after the official statements ? With what measures the European Union has tried to achieve , and what have been the results against the objectives of inclusion and social cohesion by focusing on education and training in Europe? Through the decade of data on education levels of the European population , the methods and outcomes of the labor market participation and the exercise of the right of citizenship - with particular reference to women - will be able to test the basic hypothesis of this paper . Education policies and reform strategies implemented in different models of European welfare states , aimed at ensuring gender equality in access to education and training and , consequently, to acquire greater social security , are more effective if they pursue "comprehensive development " of the people , or, in other words , if you fail to support the knowledge, skills and abilities needed to develop active participation in citizenship ( in addition to the knowledge / skills / basic skills , technical, professional , reference is made , for example, self-esteem, awareness of the importance of knowing their rights and contribute to community life, the need to have the resources and tools to learn about and take advantage of the "conditions" to do so )
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
