    Il contributo è il saggio introduttivo dei curatori del volume in cui è inserito. Nello scorrere e analizzare i progetti descritti nella pubblicazione, si è automaticamente creata nella mente di noi curatori una mappa mondiale ricca di suggestioni che ci sono pervenute dal lavoro di giovani impegnati a pensare ad un futuro migliore. Se infatti quasi tutte le tesi, per vincolo del bando (dal 2014), sono state sviluppate in atenei italiani, la loro localizzazione differisce notevolmente, arrivando a toccare molte aree geografiche del nostro pianeta (ventisette paesi di cinque continenti). Tra queste, abbiamo rivisitato le tradizioni abitative della Cordigliera delle Ande, percorso le sponde dei fiumi africani che attraversano paesi e città assetate d’acqua, camminato su palafitte asiatiche che si oppongono all’innalzamento dei mari e visto siti industriali europei caratterizzati da nuovi usi e nuove forme di interazione con il territorio più sostenibili

    Recovery of modernist architecture in the Colombian Caribbean, through the rediscovery of architectural archives. The case of the domestic architecture of Miguel Farah Zakzuk

    No full text
    The present research aims to study the phenomenon of modernism in the Caribbean region of Colombia through architecture archives as documentation and tools of graphic representation. Considering that this territory is home to a large number of modernist works that continue to be discovered today, thanks to recent publications that have unveiled the work of authors who were instrumental in modernizing the different cities of the Caribbean through architecture, leaving a significant impact on the region. Therefore, just as the modernist lessons of Colombian and foreign masters have long been studied in major cities such as Bogotá and Medellín, the intention is to also continue this investigation into the Caribbean territory, where new authors emerge, leaving behind an important modernist architectural legacy and in some cases also a graphical heritage. In this way, a research on the architecture of Miguel Farah Zakzuk begins, who was one of the young architects of the mid-20th century responsible for generating a syncretic fusion between traditional language, tailored to the specific conditions of the Caribbean tropics, and the new emerging modern style of the time, which allowed for new ways of conceiving and constructing architecture. The rediscovery and consistent exploration of an unpublished graphic archive containing part of the professional work of the studied author, together with architectural surveys, elements of graphic representation, and oral sources, allowed the initiation of this investigative work where the design methods of architect Miguel Farah are analyzed to conceive the new architecture of the mid-20th century in Caribbean cities, maintaining the essence of the tropical spirit in his works, under the international style that was in full swing

    Le storie di apprendimento. Documentare e valutare nei servizi per l’infanzia

    No full text
    Questo libro affronta i temi della documentazione e della valutazione degli apprendimenti dei bambini traendo ispirazione dalla psicologia, dalla sociologia e dalla cultura dell’educazione. Margaret Carr mostra come un contesto per la prima infanzia possa divenire un luogo di apprendimento in cui i bambini sviluppano “disposizioni ad apprendere” come, per esempio, il perseverare nella difficoltà e nell’incertezza, l’esprimere con sicurezza le proprie idee e l’affrontare in modo riflessivo e collaborativo la risoluzione di problemi. L’autrice propone, al termine di alcuni interventi di ricerca-azione, un percorso per documentare e valutare l’apprendimento dei bambini durante i primi anni di vita in grado di promuovere, nel contempo, tali “disposizioni ad apprendere”, sfuggire alle insidie di approcci eccessivamente formali, rivelarsi utile per gli educatori, interessante per le famiglie ed efficace rispetto alle potenzialità di sviluppo dei bambini. Il libro descrive un modello di valutazione vicino e coerente alle esperienze dei bambini, alternativo agli approcci più tradizionali di valutazione, tendenzialmente orientati a rilevare - attraverso checklist - le carenze più che le risorse e a valutare le abilità, decontestualizzate e frammentate, funzionali alla riuscita scolastica. Attraverso la proposta delle Storie di apprendimento, il lavoro di Margaret Carr mostra come e a quali condizioni sia possibile valutare – più che gerarchie di abilità, specialmente nel leggere e fare di conto – ciò che realmente conta all’interno dei luoghi di apprendimento che gli educatori, i bambini e le comunità costruiscono. Il libro intreccia teoria e pratica ed evidenzia come i temi relativi allo sviluppo e all’apprendimento dei bambini si articolino e si riflettano nella pratica della valutazione. Differenti idee e prospettive sulla documentazione e sulla valutazione degli apprendimenti dei bambini intessono nel libro una trama varia e complessa, impreziosita da molti esempi di Storie di apprendimento raccolte in alcuni servizi per la prima infanzia neozelandesi. In tal senso, il libro dà voce agli educatori, ai bambini e alle loro famiglie lungo lo sviluppo dell’apprendimento e della sua valutazione

    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

    Full text link
    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

    Full text link
    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
