ANALYSING ERRORS IN RUSSIAN VERB ACQUISITION BY ITALIAN L1 LEARNERS: THE COMPLEXITY OF VERBS OF MOTION
This paper delves into the acquisition of Russian verbs by Italian L1 learners, highlighting the most common errors and challenges encountered in the process. Through a comparative analysis, it seeks to uncover the underlying patterns that Italian speakers commonly face while learning and using Russian verb forms. The study’s primary
goal is to shed light on the unique difficulties Italian learners experience due to the disparities between Russian and Italian. By doing so, it aims to suggest effective language learning strategies tailored for Italian L1 learners, potentially enhancing instructional approaches and improving learner outcomes in second language acquisition.
This research not only contributes to our understanding of language learning barriers but also proposes didactic solutions to overcome these challenges, thereby facilitating a more efficient and successful learning experience for Italian speakers studying Russian
Дидактические функции ошибок: как использовать «ошибки» италоязычных изучающих РКИ при освоении дейктических глаголов движения в русском языке.
The verbs of motion in the Russian language are a challenging topic for learners. Considering this matter from the researcher’s point of view, it is possible to analyse and question the process of learning these verbs and the difficulties involved. Why do we discuss about mistakes? It is because, from a didactic point of view, they are a complex element that hides contradictions manifested in all areas of linguistics. By making mistakes, a person can learn, but also reveals an inability to learn. Working on mistakes involves the teacher and the learner managing information considered incorrect,
identifying the mistake, controlling it, and transforming it into knowledge
УСВОЕНИЕ РУССКИХ ГЛАГОЛОВ ДВИЖЕНИЯ ИТАЛОЯЗЫЧНЫМИ СТУДЕНТАМИ В СВЕТЕ НОВЫХ ЛИНГВОДИДАКТИЧЕСКИХ КОНЦЕПЦИЙ.
The research presented in the article aims to identify linguodidactic principles that would help to shape the forma mentis of Italian-speaking students studying the Russian language, and assist them in the process of learning and acquiring motion verbs while avoiding errors due to interference between L1 (Italian) and FL (Russian) in encoding deictic information. The study raises several important questions: Why do students make mistakes in using motion verbs despite their high level of proficiency in Russian? What innovative approaches can facilitate the learning of Russian motion verbs
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
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
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
