Get PDFLearning Slovene in the Slovene Emigration Community in Cleveland with an Emphasis on Geographical Topics
No full textMagistrsko delo temelji na preučevanju, kako se v slovenski izseljenski skupnosti v Clevelandu učijo slovenski jezik s poudarkom na geografskih temah. Slovenski jezik v slovenski izseljenski skupnosti v Clevelandu ohranjajo z izvajanjem sobotnih šol v okviru dveh župnij, sv. Vida in sv. Marije Vnebovzete. Glavni namen dela je osnovati poskusno učno gradivo, ki bo učečim se slovenščine in učiteljem v pomoč pri spoznavanju geografskih značilnosti Slovenije. Teoretičnim izhodiščem sledi analiza geografskih elementov v učnem načrtu za dopolnilni pouk slovenščine v tujini in učnem gradivu, ki ga uporabljajo v sobotnih šolah. Z analizo sem dobila vpogled, koliko geografskih vsebin je v učnem načrtu in gradivih. Z metodo polstrukturiranih intervjujev sem raziskovala, kako poteka dopolnilni pouk slovenščine v sobotni šoli, katere geografske vsebine spoznavajo in na kakšen način so te posredovane učencem. Na osnovi analize učnega načrta, gradiv in polstrukturiranih intervjujev sem pripravila poskusno sodobno in interaktivno avdiovizualno gradivo, ki bi bilo učiteljem slovenščine lahko v pomoč pri poučevanju, učečim se slovenščine pa pri spoznavanju Slovenije.The master\u27s thesis is based on the study of how the Slovenian emigrant community in Cleveland learns the Slovenian language with an emphasis on geographical topics. The Slovenian language is preserved in the Slovenian emigrant community in Cleveland by holding Saturday schools in two parishes, those of St Vitus and St Mary of the Assumption. The main purpose of this thesis is to create trial teaching material that will help learners of Slovenian and teachers learn about geographical features of Slovenia. The theoretical starting point is followed by an analysis of the geographical elements in the curriculum for supplementary classes of Slovenian abroad, and the teaching materials used in Saturday schools. Through the analysis, I gained insight into how much geographical content the curriculum and materials contain. Using the method of semi-structured interviews, I researched how supplementary Slovenian lessons are conducted in Saturday school, what geographical content is studied, and in what way this content is conveyed to the students. Based on the analysis of the curriculum, materials, and semi-structured interviews, I prepared experimental modern and interactive audio-visual material, which could be of help to teachers of Slovenian in teaching, and to learners of Slovenian in getting to know Slovenia
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
