    Globally, educational systems are undergoing a restructuring in which emerging technologies and information sciences will play a significant role. Education will undergo the most significant changes in over a century as a result of new technology and mobile devices with cutting-edge capabilities. As emerging technologies continue to advance, mobile learning methods are becoming increasingly popular. Literature reviews conducted by the author indicate that as this field of study continues to develop, more and more researchers are investigating how technology impacts learning, how it influences teaching methods, and how teachers are evaluated. Further, this paper examines the educational benefits of using technology to facilitate independent learning. Technology is helping to facilitate a fundamental rethinking of what should be taught and how it should be taught rather than serving as an adjunct to learning and teaching. An undertaking of this magnitude represents both an exciting opportunity and a serious responsibility. In an effort to meet this challenge, this article examines several key antecedents and determinants associated with education and technology. A number of terms have been integrated into the educational field of vision in recent years, including portal connectivity, artificial intelligence, big data, machine learning, mobile technologies, and intelligent learning patterns. Consequently, society and education have undergone unprecedented changes. Consequently, the use of technology in education is likely to follow a hockey stick pattern, according to the author's research. In simple terms, in light of the rapid development of technology in the field of education, the way in which knowledge is delivered and the capability to learn new things will undergo a great deal of change

    As a basic management tool, project management has not made significant advancements in recent decades. Along with a traditional technical environment, it is now enhanced with an organizational environment that identifies different portfolios of project work, which is extremely beneficial to the educational sector. In the education sector, its principles and techniques have evolved into a strategic environment for program management and portfolio management. According to many practitioners and authors in the education sector, project management refers to the tools, techniques, processes, and structures used to accomplish a project's goals. The term program management refers to the integrated and coordinated management of several related projects in order to achieve a specific strategic objective and gain competitive advantage. This is especially true in the educational sector. The concept of project management in education has traditionally been regarded as a subset of general management (operations and production). As part of a portfolio management strategy, an organization identifies the right programs for achieving its strategic goals, which may also result in a competitive advantage. There are those who view programme management in terms of a loose collection of education and training projects, and there are those who view it in terms of a more specific group of initiatives. The authors reached a comprehensive conclusion after conducting primary and secondary research in order to determine how project management enhances competitiveness in the education and training sector

    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
