The daily life of a rural riverside school in Amazonian: practices and knowledges in school-community relation
No full textEssa pesquisa teve como alvo a dinâmica cotidiana da vida escolar em uma comunidade rural ribeirinha, localizada no entorno de uma cidade amazônica. Com o acelerado crescimento demográfico das metrópoles e sua intensa e desordenada expansão, comunidades ribeirinhas vem sendo incorporadas ao espaço urbano, com significativas alterações em seu modo de vida e formas de enfrentamento das questões ambientais, econômicas e sociais, que até recentemente não se configuravam no cotidiano destas localidades. O estudo buscou investigar os agenciamentos operados na escola na produção de modos de subjetivação, no contexto destas transformações. Para tal, procurou-se caracterizar a comunidade e o estabelecimento educacional em seus aspectos históricos, políticos e sociais; procurou-se descrever cenas do cotidiano escolar, investigando práticas, e trazendo as avaliações e expectativas sobre a escola e a relação escola-comunidade. A pesquisa, de cunho qualitativo, foi desenvolvida através do estudo de caso etnográfico, adotando como procedimento de investigação a observação participante, a análise documental e a realização de entrevistas. Buscou-se ainda aliar alguns pressupostos que norteiam a pesquisa cartográfica com o campo de estudos com o cotidiano. A leitura dos dados foi feita com base no aporte teórico fornecido principalmente pela análise institucional e esquizoanálise. Para análise do material discursivo utilizou-se o método de análise de conteúdo. O estudo apontou a importância que os moradores atribuem à escola, sendo percebida como componente que favorece a melhoria das condições de vida. Estas concepções são partilhadas com os agentes institucionais, que afirmam a importância da escola enquanto responsável pela socialização e transmissão de conhecimentos acumulados pela humanidade. A escola apresenta-se distante da realidade local, desqualifica o saber tradicional, impondo concepções mercantilizadas e a transmissão de um saber hegemônico, reforçador de uma estrutura de desigualdades. As dificuldades escolares são identificadas como consequência das dificuldades do aluno, de sua família e do ambiente rural. Cabe à escola empreender práticas necessárias à socialização dos alunos e à transmissão de conteúdos e valores necessários à inserção no mercado de trabalho e ao modo de vida citadino. A escola engendra práticas coercitivas, que instituem a diferença como algo qualitativamente inferior, vivenciada como negação. Entretanto, se por um lado é valorizada por representar a possibilidade de ascensão social, por outro, questiona-se a possibilidade de a escola concretizar sonhos e esperanças. Mas algo escapa aos processos de modelização de subjetividades. Há táticas usadas no enfrentamento das estratégias propostas pelo sistema de ensino, que em certos momentos se desprendem da trama dominante e podem movimentar a criação de outros sentidos. A pesquisa intenta contribuir para a compreensão dos atravessamentos presentes nas ações pedagógicas que constituem o cotidiano escolar, potencializando a desnaturalização de práticas instituídas e a produção de novos processos de subjetivação que agenciem o enfrentamento ao projeto histórico de escolarização estabelecido para a educação rural.This research has targeted the daily dynamics of school life in a rural riverside community located in the vicinity of an Amazonian city. With the fast increasing population growth of cities and their intense and disorderly expansion, riverside communities have been incorporated into the urban space, with significant changes in their lifestyle and ways of dealing with environmental, economic and social subjects, which until recently was not incorporated in the everyday of these communities. The study sought to investigate the agencies operated in the school production of subjectivity modes in these transformations context. To achieve this, we sought to characterize the community and the educational establishment in their historical, political and social aspects, sought to describe scenes of everyday school life, investigating practices, and providing assessments and expectations on the school and school-community partnership. The survey, of qualitative nature, was developed through an ethnographic case study, adopting as research procedure the participant observation, document analysis and interviewing of the subjects. We tried to combine some further assumptions that guide the cartographic research with the field studies with the everyday. The reading of data was based on the theoretical support provided mainly by institutional analysis and schizoanalysis. For analysis of the discursive material it was used the method of content analysis. The study pointed out the importance that residents give to school, being perceived as a component which promotes the improvement of conditions in which they live. These conceptions are shared with institutional agents, whom affirm the importance of school as responsible for socialization and transmission of knowledge accumulated by mankind. The school presents itself away from the local reality, discredits the traditional and popular knowledge, imposing concepts and commoditized transmission of hegemonic knowledge, reinforcing a structure of inequalities. The learning difficulties and disorders are identified as a result of the students problems, his familys and the rural environments. It is for the school to undertake the necessary practical socialization of students and the transmission of content and values necessary for integration into the labor market and the way of city life. The school engenders coercive practices, establishing the difference as something qualitatively inferior, experienced as negation. However, if one part is valued because it represents the possibility of social ascent, on the other hand, the possibility of the school to realize hopes and dreams is questioned. But something escapes the modeling processes of subjectivity. There are tactics used in coping with the strategies proposed by the education system, which at times come off the plot dominant and can move the creation of other senses. The research intends to contribute to the understanding of these crossings in the pedagogical actions that constitute the school daily, increasing to unnatural practices and introduced new production processes of subjectivity that agencies confronting the historical project of education provided to rural education

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
