Prefazione in Mi prendo cura di te e mi sorprendo
No full textNel testo che segue, Laura Pinna propone un “manuale” originale per chi voglia approcciarsi alla riflessione e alla pratica della consulenza pedagogica. Si tratta di uno scritto originale perché è un’introduzione, teoricamente sapiente ed empiricamente sostanziosa, alla declinazione consulenziale del lavoro pedagogico, ma anche una testimonianza di un percorso d’impegno professionale e sociale. L’autrice, infatti, non intende proporre metodi o approcci prestabiliti, ma narrare un’esperienza, nell’auspicio che questa illumini il cammino di altre e altri che percorreranno sentieri affini. Il grande pedagogista tedesco Eduard Spranger sosteneva che il maestro o l’educatore debba, innanzitutto, essere un Kulturtrãger (letteralmente “portatore di cultura”). In qualche modo, l’Autrice, ripercorre e ricolloca il contenuto di tale idea nella prima parte del testo, nella quale, attingendo al pensiero filosofico, letterario e di altre discipline, offre l’esempio della pluralità cultural
Percorsi alternativi di supervisione dei tirocini ai tempi del COVID-19: Università e Ordine degli Assistenti Sociali a confronto per la costruzione di Linee Guida
No full textCom’è noto, il Covid-19 ha comportato una ridefinizione delle modalità operative del lavoro sociale, attraverso lo smart working
e l’utilizzo degli strumenti professionali «in remoto» (colloquio o riunione d’équipe). La rivisitazione del modo di operare degli assistenti sociali, che ha permesso di rispondere alle indifferibili esigenze dei professionisti nei servizi in un periodo così critico
come quello pandemico, ha avuto una ricaduta nella realizzazione dei tirocini curricolari «classici» per gli studenti iscritti nei corsi di
laurea in Servizio sociale, comportando una drastica limitazione quando non l’interruzione degli stessi tirocini, percorsi obbligati
e fondamentali nella formazione dei futuri assistenti sociali. Pertanto, la loro alterazione da un lato ha comportato la decurtazione
di una parte fondamentale del percorso di studi, dall’altro però ha suscitato un fattivo confronto tra le istituzioni deputate. Con questo lavoro si vuole portare l’esempio di una consolidata esperienza di «corresponsabilità formativa» tra Università di Sassari e Ordine degli Assistenti Sociali – Regione Sardegna, che ha favorito la realizzazione di «laboratori di tirocinio» attraverso il coinvolgimento dell’intera comunità professionale, sotto la regia dei docenti a contratto di tirocinio. Questo ha aperto lo sguardo
delle due istituzioni su un’ipotesi di stesura di Linee guida, al fine di «modellizzare» la messa a sistema di tale esperimento formativo.As is known, COVID-19 has led to a redefinition of the operating methods of social work, through smart working and the use of «remote» professional tools (interview or team meeting). The review of working of the social workers, which has made it possible to respond to the needs of professionals in services, in such a critical period as the pandemic, has had an impact on the creation of «classic» curricular internships for the students of the Degree in Social Work courses, involving a drastic limitation when not the interruption of the same internships, obligatory and fundamental paths in the training of future social workers. Therefore, their alteration on the one hand led to a «curtailment» of a fundamental part of the course of study, but on the other hand, it caused an effective confrontation between the appointed institutions. With this work we want to give the example of a consolidated experience of «formative co-responsibility» between the University of Sassari and Order of Social Workers – Sardinia Region, which has favoured the creation of «internship workshops », through the involvement of the entire professional community, under the direction
of internship contract teachers. This opened the gaze of the two institutions to a hypothesis of drafting guidelines, in order to «model» the system of this training experiment.

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
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
