    Indicativo e congiuntivo a scuola: uso e sanzione

    Full text link
    Il contributo si pone, in primo luogo, l’obiettivo di indagare l’alternanza modale nelle frasi completive in un corpus di elaborati scolastici. In secondo luogo, intende osservare la sanzione applicata dai/dalle docenti all’indicativo pro congiuntivo, attraverso l’analisi delle correzioni incluse nei testi del corpus e la somministrazione di un compito di correzione. Si mostrerà, tramite esempi tratti dai dati e grazie ai risultati della rilevazione, che la recessione del congiuntivo non interessa in egual misura tutti i contesti. Per concludere, verranno illustrati alcuni spunti didattici riguardo ai vantaggi offerti da una riflessione in classe sul modo congiuntivo; può infatti rappresentare un’occasione per evidenziare lo stretto legame fra morfologia e sintassi e per riflettere sulla variabilità e stratificazione della lingua.The paper aims at investigating mood alternation in complement clauses in a corpus of school students’ texts. It also wishes to explore to what extent the indicative in lieu of the subjunctive is acceptable to teachers, by analysing how texts are corrected and by carrying out a correction test. The paper will show, through examples taken from the data and through the results of the test, that mood alternation does not affect all contexts equally. To conclude, some basis for reflection will be given, regarding the strengths of covering the subjunctive at school; as a matter of fact, it may provide an opportunity to highlight the close relation between morphology and syntax and to discuss language variation and stratification

    LA MORFOLOGIA NOMINALE, PRONOMINALE E VERBALE NELLE PRIME FASI DELL’APPRENDIMENTO DELL’ITALIANO L2: DUE CASI DI BAMBINI DI SCUOLA PRIMARIA

    Full text link
    Il contributo illustra l’acquisizione della morfologia nominale, pronominale e verbale dell’italiano L2 da parte di due bambini di scuola primaria. Lo studio si basa sull’analisi di un corpus di produzioni orali raccolto durante le ore scolastiche e si concentra sull’acquisizione della morfologia nominale, pronominale e verbale da parte dei due casi di studio. L’analisi lingusitica viene svolta a partire dagli assunti teorici degli studi precedenti, con particolare riferimento al Competition Model. Dall’analisi è emersa una notevole precocità nell’acquisizione della morfologia nominale e pronominale e, per quanto riguarda la morfologia verbale, una sostanziale aderenza ai risultati degli studi precedenti. Inoltre, si è potuto constatare come il fattore di maggiore impatto sull’apprendimento dei due casi di studio sia stata la motivazione personale.    Noun, pronoun and verb morphology in the first phases of learning italian L2: two primary school cases The goal of this paper is to illustrate the acquisition of Italian L2 noun, pronoun and verbal morphology in two primary school aged children. The study is based on the analysis of a corpus of utterances collected during school hours and focuses on the acquisition of noun, pronoun and verbal morphology. The linguistic analysis is based on the theoretical background from previous studies, in particular on the Competition Model. Thanks to this analysis, it was possible to observe that noun and pronoun morphology was learned quickly and that the acquisition of verb morphology matched the results of the previous study. Moreover, it was possible to notice that personal motivation was the factor that influenced learning to the greatest extent

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    Full text link
    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

    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

    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
