A responsabilidade social nas instituições de ensino superior e a promoção da inclusão na sociedade digital: um caso de estudo de capacitação digital dos estudantes PALOP do Instituto Politécnico de Santarém
O contexto deste trabalho centra-se essencialmente nos estudantes oriundos do Países
Africanos de Lingua Oficial Portuguesa que frequentam o Instituto Politécnico de
Santarém, nas suas dificuldades de integração e de competências digitais, tendo como
ponto de partida o projeto JUMP TO IPSantarém. Este é um projeto constituido por
módulos de integração, implementado com estudantes de 1º ano de mestrado. No
âmbito da Responsabilidade Social e de forma a promover a inclusão destes estudantes,
este estudo apresenta uma proposta de módulos de integração/formação, que responde
às especificidades destes estudantes.
Considerando o seu contexto e objetivos esta investigação, é um estudo de caso. Sendo
o estudo aplicado em contexto real, foi escolhida uma abordagem qualitativa, em que a
recolha de dados foi feita através de um grupo focal e entrevistas semiestruturadas a
vários agentes educativos.
Os resultados demostram que a capacitação digital é uma barreira à integração destes
estudantes, mas que existem outras, como as financeiras, as culturais e as linguísticas,
que para eles são prioritárias e talvez por esta razão, não priviligiem esta questão.
A proposta de módulos de integração/formação que resulta deste estudo procura dar
resposta à barreira de capacitação digital, e assim ajudar a melhorar as condições de
integração destes estudantes.The context of this work essentially focuses on students from Portuguese-speaking
African Countries who attend the Polytechnic Institute of Santarém, on their difficulties
with integration and digital skills, taking as a starting point the JUMP TO IPSantarém
project. This is a project made up of integration modules, implemented with 1st year
master's students. Within the scope of Social Responsibility and in order to promote the
inclusion of these students, this study presents a proposal for integration/training
modules, which respond to the specificities of these students.
Considering its context and objectives, this research is a case study. As the study was
applied in a real context, a qualitative approach was chosen, in which data collection was
done through a focus group, semi-structured interviews with various educational agents.
The results show that digital training is a barrier to the integration of these students, but
that there are others, such as financial, cultural and linguistic, which are priorities for
them and perhaps for this reason, they do not prioritize this issue.
The proposal for integration/training modules that results from this study seeks to
respond to the digital training barrier, and thus help to improve the integration conditions
of these students

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
