    This dissertation is part of the Educational Policy line of the Graduate Program in Education (PPGE), Federal University of Fronteira Sul (UFFS), Chapec? campus (SC). Its main objective is to analyze the constitution and configuration of School Councils of municipal public schools in the AMOSC region, as well as the principles of democratic management ensured in the legal documents of the respective municipalities. The theoretical assumptions are anchored in authors such as: Cury (1999, 2007), Bobbio (1986), Dourado, Junior and Furtado (2016), Gamboa (2012, 2013), Gandini and Riscal (2010), Lib?neo (2004), Paro (2000), Souza (2009, 2018), among others. The selection and analysis of data from municipal laws in the AMOSC region were guided by qualitative research assumptions. It considers that School Councils are a constituent part of the process of democratic school management and that, through qualitative research, it would be possible to find a way that would allow us to respond and produce inferences about the research questions. The analysis and interpretation of the data followed the Content Analysis from the perspective of Bardin (2011), which points out the contributions of this procedure in order to guide the production of an investigation work guided by the coherent and contextualized interpretation of the data collected in the research. The research was concerned with a specific policy, which occurred in the municipal education networks of the municipalities in the AMOSC Region, and concerns the way in which school councils are constituted, in order to verify whether the current constitutional principle guides the legal documents and which democratic management principles are present in them. The analysis contemplated the policy formulation process, the content expressed in the documents that guided the respective constitution of school councils in the 20 municipalities that integrate the AMOSC. From the conclusion of the analyses, it can be said that the constitution and configuration of School Councils of municipal public schools in the AMOSC region presents coherence and consonance with federal legislation. The presence of the principle of participation in legal documents indicates that the current constitutional principle guides the legislation of the SCs of the municipalities in the AMOSC region. In this perspective, it is possible to verify that the SCs may be characterized as spaces/instances for democratic management, however, this participation can, in some narratives, be understood as representativeness. Even so, it is a historical advance for public education in the AMOSC region that most municipalities have their own legislation for the creation of School Councils and most of these already regulate democratic management in these legal documents, as well as propose that the SC be constituted with the representativeness of all segments of the school community and parity in representations.A presente disserta??o integra a linha de Pol?ticas Educacionais do Programa de P?sGradua??o em Educa??o (PPGE), da Universidade Federal da Fronteira Sul (UFFS), campus Chapec? (SC). Tem por objetivo central analisar a constitui??o e configura??o dos Conselhos Escolares das escolas p?blicas municipais na regi?o da AMOSC, bem como os princ?pios de gest?o democr?tica assegurados nos documentos legais dos respectivos munic?pios. Os pressupostos te?ricos est?o ancorados em autores, como: Cury (1999, 2007), Bobbio (1986), Dourado, Junior e Furtado (2016), Gamboa (2012, 2013), Gandini e Riscal (2010), Lib?neo (2004), Paro (2000), Souza (2009, 2018), entre outros. A sele??o e a an?lise dos dados das leis municipais da regi?o da AMOSC foram guiadas por pressupostos da pesquisa qualitativa. Considera que os Conselhos Escolares s?o parte constituinte do processo de gest?o democr?tica escolar e que por meio da pesquisa qualitativa seria poss?vel um percurso que permitisse responder e produzir infer?ncias sobre as quest?es da pesquisa. A an?lise e interpreta??o dos dados seguiu a An?lise de Conte?do na perspectiva de Bardin (2011), que aponta as contribui??es desse procedimento no sentido de orientar a produ??o de um trabalho de investiga??o pautado pela interpreta??o coerente e contextualizada dos dados levantados na pesquisa. A pesquisa se ocupou de uma pol?tica espec?fica, ocorrida nas redes municipais de ensino dos munic?pios da Regi?o da AMOSC, e diz respeito ? forma como s?o constitu?dos os conselhos escolares, a fim de que fosse averiguado se o princ?pio constitucional vigente orienta os documentos legais e quais princ?pios de gest?o democr?tica est?o presentes neles. A an?lise contemplou o processo de formula??o da pol?tica, do conte?do expresso nos documentos que orientaram a respectiva constitui??o dos conselhos escolares nos 20 munic?pios que integram a AMOSC. A partir da conclus?o das an?lises, pode-se dizer que a constitui??o e configura??o dos Conselhos Escolares das escolas p?blicas municipais na regi?o da AMOSC apresenta coer?ncia e conson?ncia com a legisla??o federal. A presen?a do princ?pio da participa??o nos documentos legais indica que o princ?pio constitucional vigente orienta a legisla??o dos CEs dos munic?pios da regi?o da AMOSC. Nesse sentido, ? poss?vel vislumbrar que os CEs podem estar se caracterizando como espa?os/inst?ncias para a gest?o democr?tica, no entanto, esta participa??o pode, em algumas narrativas, ser entendida como representatividade. Ainda assim ? um avan?o hist?rico para a educa??o p?blica na regi?o da AMOSC que a maioria dos munic?pios tenha legisla??es pr?prias de cria??o dos Conselhos Escolares e boa parte destas j? regulamentem a gest?o democr?tica nestes documentos legais, bem como prop?em que o CE seja constitu?do com a representatividade de todos os segmentos da comunidade escolar e paridade nas representa??es

    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

    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

    Get PDF
    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

    koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist

    We 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

    Author Under Sail The Imagination of Jack London, 1893-1902

    No full text
    In Author Under Sail, Jay Williams offers the first complete literary biography of Jack London as a professional writer engaged in the labor of writing. It examines the authorial imagination in London's work, the use of imagination in both his fiction and nonfiction, and the ways he defined imagination in the creative process in his business dealings with his publishers, editors, and agents. In this first volume of a two-volume biography, Williams traverses the years 1893 to 1902, from London's "Story of a Typhoon" to The People of the Abyss. The Jack London who emerges in the pages of Author Under Sail is a writer whose partnership with publishers, most notably his productive alliance with George Brett of Macmillan, was one of the most formative in American literary history. London pioneered many author models during the heyday of realism and naturalism, blurring the boundaries of these popular genres by focusing on absorption and theatricality and the representation of the seen and unseen. London created an impassioned, sincere, and extremely personal realism unlike that of other American writers of the time. Author Under Sail is a literary tour de force that reveals the full range of London as writer, creative citizen, and entrepreneur at the same time it sheds light on the maverick side of machine-age literature.Intro -- Title Page -- Copyright Page -- Dedication -- Contents -- Acknowledgments -- Introduction -- 1.
