La muerte de los métodos (“nouvelles vagues”) en la enseñanza de lengua(s)
No full textO uso de um determinado método tem sido e é considerado a solução para todos ou pelo menos para os principais problemas do ensino da(s) primeira(s) ou segunda(s) língua(s). Na prática, porém, pode-se dizer que todos eles falharam de alguma forma, tanto que agora se fala da "morte das metodologias".The use of a particular method has been and is regarded as the solution for all or at least the major problems in the teaching of the first or the one (s) second (s) language (s). However, in practice, one can say that we all have failed in some way, so much so that now there is talk of "the death of methodologies."El uso de determinado método ha sido y es considerado como la solución para todos o por lo menos los principales problemas de la enseñanza de la primera o de la(s) segunda(s) lengua(s).

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
Teaching Spanish: Where are you going?
Get PDFEl presente trabajo aborda uno de los más aciagos dramas nacionales: el problema de la enseñanza del castellano. El tema ha sido objeto de reflexión de múltiples foros y ha sido abordado por una gran cantidad de artículos de posición. El autor analiza las causas de la defectiva situación de la enseñanza del español y propone las posibles medidas que, en caso de asumirse, podrían sacarnos del atolladero. Sobre la base de hacer un efectivo diagnóstico de los graves errores del sistema educativo peruano, el estudioso expone sus ideas fundamentales sobre la escritura de textos, la lectura, el análisis gramatical y la cuestión lingüística peruana (nuestro rico e irreductible multilingüismo). La conclusión de las reflexiones anteriores nos conduce a una visión escéptica sobre el futuro de la enseñanza del castellano. En este sentido, el pesimismo del autor es, en el fondo, un llamado de atención: Urge un verdadero cambio de marcha en la política educativa peruana.The teaching of Spanish undergoes a severe crisis, as in shown in the great percentages of the population that has difficulties in understanding even simple texts and produces unintelligible texts; that the problem is generally known, is shown in several important national and international studies. Our study centers on showing the causes of the problem and its possible solutions. We consider it important to teach children and the young people to have a considerable command of Spanish; to center the teaching on the understanding and the production of texts and keep on a second level the teaching of grammar and spelling and other aspects that correspond more to an explicit knowledge of the language that, furthermore,is not well taught, either. On the other hand, the problem is not onlymethodological; it has its roots in the social and economical situation of thecountry. There is no acces to the books necessary, the people cannot buy them and there hardly exist any public libraries; with respect to the lackingof educational politics (there is no national project in the branch of education), each government modifies the plans of study, not justifying anything at all. The forming of teachers is highly deficient. The teachers oft he Spanish that finish their studies in the Faculties of Education and Pedagogical Institutes do nor always manage well this language and alltheir formation is centred on methodologies, not having really a solid formation in scientific knowledge, that they should teach. Usually it is not taken into account that Peru is a multilingual and multidialectal country, that there is a great variety of sociolectes and registers; all that should betaken into account and that without this consideration, the teaching of beSpanish will not be successful, but a failure
Ediciones con estudio previo y anotaciones de Trilce de César Vallejo y Simbólicas de José María Eguren
Get PDFEl trabajo que hemos desarrollado no lo entendemos como una edición crítica sino como
edición anotada, pues, consideramos que de la poesía no hay una sola lectura como
pretenden hacernos creer los críticos literarios, lo que pretendemos es facilitar la lectura
aclarando los significados de algunas palabras poco comunes y de los recursos de la lengua
y el lenguaje fuera de lo común usados por los poetas.Trabado de investigació
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
