    The Poetry of Rafael Alberto Arrieta

    It is with the Post-Modernist group that we are concerned in this study, for it is in this direction that the poetry of Rafael Alberto Arrieta leads. The poetic expression of Arrieta is not, however, a conscious, deliberate rebellion against Modernism. Arrieta was born in the 1889; he therefore grew up under the influence of Modernism. The most formative years of his life were spent while Modernism dominated the world of poetry. Yet Arrieta had the literary integrity to express his own personality in spite of the prevailing influences

    This research is part of a macro project sponsored by the Vice-Chancellorship of Research and Graduate Studies of the Universidad Pegadogica Experimental Libertador (UPEL), based on the current situation of the environmental education at the undergraduate-graduate scales. A diagnosis and a critical analysis were performed at the Instituto Pedagogico Rafael Alberto Escobar Lara, taking into account the existing approaches at national and international level. The fieldwork of this research is exploratory and explanatory. Analysis of content and statistics were used as data analysis techniques. Triangulation was used as a method of matching. The results showed there is a lack of courses related to the environment, and the functions of extension and research reflect the same trend. The results aim to the renovation of the university curriculum, making it more relevant to the global view of the environment.Ce travail fait partie dun projet plus ambitieux, soutenu par le Vice-rectorat de recherche et de master de lUniversité Pédagogique Expérimentale Libérateur (UPEL), concernant létat de lart de léducation environnementale dans le continuum études universitaires-master. Une étude de base et une analyse critique ont été menées à lInstitut Pédagogique « Rafael Alberto Escobar Lara » prenant en compte les approches actuelles à léchelle nationale et internationale. Il sagit dune recherche sur le terrain, exploratoire et explicative. Lanalyse de contenu et la statistique ont été les techniques danalyse des données employées. La triangulation a été utilisée comme méthode comparative. Daprès les résultats, il ny a pas assez de cours liés à lenvironnement et les activités hors programme et de recherche ne sont pas suffisantes non plus. Le programme universitaire devrait être modifié pour quil soit plus en rapport avec la vision planétaire de lenvironnement.Este trabalho faz parte de um projeto quadro patrocinado pelo Vice-reitorado de Pesquisa e Pós-graduação da Universidad Pedagógica Experimental Libertador (UPEL), relacionado com o estado da arte da Educação Ambiental no processo de formação no bacharelado y na pós-graduação. Foi realizado um diagnóstico e uma análise crítica no Instituto Pedagógico Rafael Alberto Escobar Lara, considerando as perspectivas vigentes no âmbito nacional e internacional. Esta é uma pesquisa de campo, exploratória e explicativa. Foram utilizadas como técnicas de análise de dados a análise de conteúdo e a estadística. O método de contraste foi o utilizado para a triangulação. Os resultados mostraram que os cursos relacionados com o meio ambiente são escassos e que as funções de extensão e pesquisa têm essa mesma tendência. Estes resultados indicam que deve haver uma transformação no currículo universitário, a fim de que o meio ambiente faça parte da visão planetária atual.Este trabajo forma parte de un proyecto macro auspiciado por el Vicerrectorado de Investigación y Postgrado de la Universidad Pedagógica Experimental Libertador (UPEL), referido al estado del arte de la Educación Ambiental en un continuum pregrado-postgrado, con el propósito de develar la situación actual de la dimensión ambiental en el Instituto Pedagógico Rafael Alberto Escobar Lara. La investigación es de campo, exploratoria y descriptiva, bajo un enfoque multimétodo. Las técnicas para recolectar la información fueron recopilación documental, entrevista y encuesta. El análisis de contenido y la estadística, se utilizaron para el análisis de datos. La triangulación se empleó como método de contrastación. En relación a los resultados, los cursos vinculados con el ambiente son escasos. Las funciones de extensión e investigación reflejan la misma tendencia.

    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

    Get PDF
    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

    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
