Tras consultar las últimas aportaciones en el campo, queda corroborado que mayormente se han centrado en modalidades presenciales. Objetivo: Esclarecer el perfil estratégico de un grupo de estudiantes en modalidad no presencial, así como determinar la existencia o no de diferencias significativas en función del acceso a las videoconferencias. Método: Investigación cuantitativa cuyo instrumento de recogida de información fue el cuestionario de estrategias de aprendizaje CEVEAPEU (Gargallo et al., 2009). Resultados: Por un lado, se determinó la existencia de diferencias significativas en el empleo de estrategias, estableciéndose tres perfiles claramente diferenciados: alto, medio y bajo. Por otro, no se apreciaron diferencias significativas en función del grado de acceso a las sesiones en directo salvo en cuatro estrategias: atribuciones internas, control de la ansiedad, planificación, habilidades sociales y aprendizaje entre compañeros.Abstract: The study of university students learning strategies has been a topic of interest for researchers whose concern has to do with learning. After consulting the latest contributions, it is corroborated that they have been mostly focused on face-to-face modalities. Objective: To clarify the strategic profile of a group of students in non-f of face-to-face modality as well as to determine the existence or not of significant differences depending on the access to videoconferences. Method: Quantitative research using the CEVEAPEU learning strategies questionnaire (Gargallo et al., 2009). Results: On the one hand, the existence of significant differences in the use of strategies was determined, establishing three clearly differentiated profiles: high, medium and low. On the other hand, no significant differences were found according to the degree of access to live sessions except in four strategies: internal attributions, anxiety control, planning, social skills and peer learning
Exploring formats and review practices of text material stemming from documentation projects
Get PDFMuch of the work published on best practices in language documentation includes recommendations for linguists to consider the creation of didactic material as part of their study (Himmelmann 2006; Nathan 2006, among others), either transforming direct output from data recorded or in some cases recording new material, generally assuming that this is couched within the notion of community-based research (Miyashita & Chatsis 2013; Rice 2011). One of the many ways in which this can take place is with the publication of texts in the language being documented. The creation of such material is aimed at addressing the general lack of it in many speaker communities, whether in the form of written texts or in general pedagogical material (Liddicoat 2007; Guerín 2008). For academic audiences, such texts are generally published in edited volumes or journals dedicated to the study of oral tradition or folklore, which follow the general procedure of peer review. However, in cases where the desired audience are members of the speaker community there is much more variety in terms of how or even if these materials get reviewed by the appropriate invested parties, i.e., native speakers. This work looks at cases of text material published in indigenous languages of Mexico, Seri (Author1 in press) and Mixe (Author2 2013), whose desired audiences are speakers of these languages, with a particular focus on the review process followed, as well as the way these texts are presented in print format.
In Mexico, there are no general conventions that address the review process for text material in indigenous languages, nor the appropriate format of the texts in such works, in particular, if they should be presented bilingually and if so, in what format. In this paper, we argue for a collaborative approach to the review process of such didactic material in order to specifically target the issue of the text’s presentation, as opposed to a traditional review process that some academic institutions require. In order to address the benefits and limitations of different text formats, we look at speaker attitudes towards bilingual versions and monolingual versions of text material, as well as the realities related to local literacy, familiarization with practical orthographies, dialectal variation, as well as the consumption of such material by non-speakers and how a bilingual version might help bridge gaps between different populations.

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe 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
Get PDF“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 PDFWe 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 PDFWe 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
