La gestión del ingreso y la permanencia en la universidad como fortalecimiento del respeto a los derechos humanos y a las libertades fundamentales.
Full text linkEl artículo 26 de la Declaración Universal de los Derechos Humanos, establece que toda persona tiene derecho a la educación ¿cómo se transforma esa declaración en realidad en el nivel universitario? Democratizar el acceso y la permanencia en los estudios superiores, involucra un compromiso que aúna la política educativa institucional con la concepción de un proyecto pedagógico que genera condiciones para garantizar que las puertas abiertas de la universidad no se vuelvan giratorias . En tal sentido, implica reconocer las complejas situaciones que se presentan año a año en relación con las competencias académicas de los estudiantes, el imaginario docente sobre lo que deberían saber , lo que traen de la secundaria y las dificultades reales de los estudiantes -no circunscriptas solo a lo académico- si bien es el principal espacio donde se evidencia. Conocer quiénes son, qué piensan sobre sus fortalezas y sus debilidades para insertarse como alumno universitario, qué esperan de una tutoría, cuáles son sus hábitos de estudio, etc. son algunas de las cuestiones que, entre otro conjunto de iniciativas, el equipo del Programa de Tutorías para los ingresantes a la Carrera de Ingeniería en Alimentos intentó responder y en esta oportunidad, compartirlo con los colegas de América Latina
Early error detection: an action-research experience teaching vector calculus
Full text linkThis paper describes an action-research experience carried out with second year students at the School of Engineering of the National University of Entre Ríos, Argentina. Vector calculus students played an active role in their own learning process. They were required to present weekly reports, in both oral and written forms, on the topics studied, instead of merely sitting and watching as the teacher solved problems on the blackboard. The students were also asked to perform computer assignments, and their learning process was continuously monitored. Among many benefits, this methodology has allowed students and teachers to identify errors and misconceptions that might have gone unnoticed under a more passive approach.Fil: Añino, María Magdalena.

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
Mejorar la enseñanza y el aprendizaje de la Matemática en Bioingeniería: Un desafío asumido desde la investigación-acción
Full text linkEn este trabajo se exponen las inquietudes y necesidades que, advertidas por un grupo de docentes de la Facultad de Ingeniería de la Universidad Nacional de Entre Ríos (FIUNER), originaron un proyecto de Investigación Educativa de carácter interdisciplinario. Se describen también las dificultades y algunos resultados alcanzados en la realización del mismo. Se aborda la problemática del aprendizaje y la enseñanza de la Matemática en una rama de la Ingeniería intrínsecamente interdisciplinaria: la Bioingeniería.The purpose of this work is to present the queries and needs perceived by a group of teachers at the Faculty of Engineering belonging to the National University of Entre Ríos (FI-UNER) which laid the foundations for an interdisciplinary educational research project. The difficulties encountered and some preliminary results are also described. The project addresses the problem of teaching and learning mathematics in an intrinsically interdisciplinary branch of engineering, i.e. bioengineering.Fil: Añino, María Magdalena.
