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
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
Programação neurolinguística e contexto educacional no processo de ensino-aprendizagem
Articulating the knowledge of pedagogy with specific actions inside the classroom is the goal of every good teacher. However, the fact that many teachers do not consider the educational background of their students prevents the integration between theory and practice. To address this problem, this article suggests NLP to reach such integration in the framework of higher education. Neuro-linguistic programming, also known as “NLP”, is a technique that aims to change the behavior and communication of a person through verbal and non-verbal language. Therefore, this paper constitutes an analysis of the impact that the strategies of NLP can have when integrating the educational background of students into their learning process. In our study we explain the importance of the higher education student’s educational background and we do a conceptual review of the NLP. Finally, our analysis concludes with the proposition of several NLP strategies that can be applied in the classroom, such as anchoring, calibration, rapport, and modeling. Furthermore, in addition to these strategies, we identified five (5) competences of teachers and four (4) action paths that will make it easier for the educator to apply NLP. For future research, it is worth assessing these strategies in a real learning scenario.Articular el conocimiento de la pedagogía con acciones específicas dentro del aula de clases es el objetivo de todo buen docente.

Frente a este problema, este artículo propone la PNL como un medio para alcanzar dicha integración en el marco de la educación superior. La Programación Neurolingüística, también conocida como “PNL”, es una técnica que busca cambiar el comportamiento y la comunicación de una persona a través del lenguaje verbal y no verbal. En este sentido, nuestro escrito constituye un análisis del impacto que sus estrategias pueden tener a la hora de integrar el contexto educativo de los estudiantes en su proceso de aprendizaje. Dentro de nuestro estudio explicamos la importancia del contexto educativo del estudiante de educación superior y hacemos una revisión conceptual de la PNL. Finalmente, nuestro análisis concluye con el planteamiento de diversas estrategias de PNL que pueden aplicarse en el aula de clases, como el anclaje, la calibración, la compenetración o rapport, el reencuadre y el modelaje. Además de plantear dichas estrategias, identificamos cinco (5) competencias docentes y cuatro (4) “rutas” de acción que facilitarán el esfuerzo del educador en la aplicación de la PNL.

Libera tus capacidades, cambia de conductas con PNL
La presente investigación se llevó a cabo en la Corporación Universitaria UNIMINUTO. El propósito del proyecto es destacar la importancia de la programación neurolingüística (PNL) en los procesos de enseñanza-aprendizaje, de tal manera que se implemente en su formación el uso de estrategias basadas en estas técnicas. La problemática central es la ausencia de herramientas y técnicas para generar un cambio educacional de tal manera que los docentes puedan mantener un hilo conductor entre los diseños curriculares y el ambiente escolar, con una formación de calidad, pero innovadora. Por lo tanto, se utiliza una metodología que se enmarca en la investigación cualitativa, lo cual permite que el desarrollo de esta indagación tenga como referente la línea de investigación -acción educativa, que consiste en la implementación de una estrategia de acción. La propuesta incentiva en los estudiantes una actitud crítica y transformadora acerca de estas técnicas de aprendizaje y fomenta la creación de ambientes y escenarios educativos motivantes
Eficiencia del uso de material educativo mediado por las TIC para el mejoramiento del discurso oral en estudiantes de grado décimo del Colegio Nuevo Chile
La dificultad de comunicase tanto en lo escrito como en lo oral es una constante en los colegios en todos los niveles. En este proyecto se indaga sobre el nivel del discurso oral que desarrollan los estudiantes del grado10 del Colegio Nuevo Chile del proyecto de Media Fortalecida en la clase de Educación Ambiental. Se propone determinar la eficiencia que tiene el uso de las TIC (en este caso el podcast) para mejorar el nivel del discurso oral en dicha población. Dado este problema en la competencia comunicativa, una de las tareas establecidas fue caracterizar el discurso oral mediado por las TIC en el contexto natural de la clase y con el uso de podcast prediseñados se generaron conversatorios dirigidos por el docente de Educación Ambiental. Con el fin de orientar a los estudiantes al diseño de estas herramientas tecnológicas sobre temas ambientales tratados en clase, se estableció un modelo de diseño instruccional basado en el modelo ADDIE (Análisis, Diseño, Desarrollo, Implementación y Evaluación) expuesto por Belloch (s.f.). Modelo interactivo que establece el producto final de una fase como el producto de inicio de la siguiente fase.The difficulty of communicating both in writing and orally is a constant in schools at all levels. This project investigates the level of oral discourse developed by the 10th grade students of the Nuevo Chile School of the Strengthened Media project in the Environmental Education class. It is proposed to determine the efficiency of the use of ICT (in this case the podcast) to improve the level of oral discourse in said population. Given this problem in communicative competence, one of the established tasks was to characterize the oral discourse mediated by ICT in the natural context of the class and with the use of pre-designed podcasts, conversations led by the Environmental Education teacher were generated. In order to guide students in the design of these technological tools on environmental topics discussed in class, an instructional design model was established based on the ADDIE model (Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation and Evaluation) presented by Belloch (s.f.) . Interactive model that establishes the final product of one phase as the starting product of the next phase.EspecializaciónEspecialista en Docencia mediada por las TI
