Dolores J. Torres: bosquejo sobre una filosofía de la educación
Full text linkEl presente trabajo de investigación da a conocer un bosquejo de la filosofía de la educación en la trayectoria de Dolores J. Torres, tomando como referencia varios conceptos de filosofía de la educación, en donde el punto central está relacionado con la práctica educativa. De esta manera se detallan los métodos de enseñanza- aprendizaje que Dolores J. Torres aplicó, enseñó y dejó como legado en la educación cuencana.
Desarrolla además un repaso histórico de la educación antes y a inicios de la Revolución Liberal; el protagonismo que toman las mujeres en este periodo para ser reconocidas como sujetos de derecho y acceder a ámbitos que antes le habían sido relegados, como educación, política, esferas públicas; y la creación de los primeros Institutos Normales del país para la formación de profesores, como el InstitutoNormal para señoritas “Manuela Cañizares” en donde se educa Dolores J. Torres como la primera normalista cuencana. También, hace un repaso de la vida y trayectoria de Dolores J. Torres.
Finalmente,realiza un bosquejo de la filosofía de la educación de Dolores J. Torres, detallando los métodos pedagógicos que aplicó en la Escuela “Tres de Noviembre”, la misma que se convirtió en el símbolo de su trayectoria educativa.The following research provides an outline of the philosophy of education in Dolores J. Torres’ path, taking into account various concepts of the philosophy of education in which the main point is related with the educational practice. Therefore, it is detailed the teaching-learning methods that Dolores J. Torres applied, taught and left as benefit in the cuencana education.
This research develops also a historical outline of the education before and at the beginning of the Liberal Revolution; the protagonism which takes the women in this period to be recognized as subjects of law and to access to paths than before had been relegated such as education, politics, public spheres and the creation of the first Normalist Institutions of the country to the formation of teachers as “Manuela Cañizares” Normalist Misses Institute in which Dolores J, Torres was educated like the first cuencanaNormalist. Also, it makes a review about life and trajectory of Dolores J. Torres.
Finally, it makes an outline of the Dolores J. Torres’ educational philosophy by detailing the pedagogical methods which were applied in the "Tres de Noviembre" Elementary School the same that was converted as the symbol of her educative path.Licenciada en Ciencias de la Educación en Filosofía, Sociolgía y EconomíaCuenc

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe 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
Full text link“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 linkWe 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 linkWe 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
