Assessment of motor skills in prospective support teachers for a barrier-free school Valutazione delle conoscenze motorie nei futuri insegnanti di sostegno per una scuola senza barriere
No full textStarting from an analysis of the perceptual dynamics and the representations that are activated in front of a body with disabilities, and from a necessary crisis of mental schemes that can produce stereotyping, categorization and labeling, the paper reflects on the ways of valorizing the motor skills in an inclusive sense of support teachers in training, traditionally excluded from the learning assessment, starting from the activity carried out during the laboratory of Methods and Didactics of Motor Activities organized within the Specialization Course for support activities of the University of Reggio Calabria Mediterranea in the academic year 2018-2019
Straniero a chi? Racconti
Full text linkQuesto volume raccoglie alcuni dei numerosi testi che gli studenti delle scuole secondarie di primo e secondo grado della regione Veneto hanno inviato all’Archivio Scritture Scrittrici Migranti, partecipando al concorso letterario ‘Straniero a chi? Scriviamo le migrazioni’.
A emergere sono i grandi nuclei tematici della migrazione: l’alterità, condizione avvertita come propria non solo di chi è costretto a migrare, ma anche di quanti avvertono un senso di estraneità al mondo che li circonda; il trauma del viaggio, le speranze in un futuro diverso e lo scontro con una realtà durissima, sia durante lo spostamento
che all’arrivo; un percorso di inserimento nel luogo di approdo; il valore del dialogo e della solidarietà

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
L'arte carnale di ORLAN. Per una poetica del corpo deviante
No full textThis essay concerns some of the most significant works of Orlan and their representations of human body. It will attempt to observe how the orlanian eccentric art became illustrated pathology. Her reinterpretation of Judeo-Christian iconography, the series of surgery-performances, the rebuilding of her face, the graphic self-hybridizations and her use of the most advanced features of biotechnology allow the performer to touch on aesthetics, psychoanalysis, antropology and science. Even if the mise en scène of the deformed, artistical orlanian body has contrasted the traditional aesthetical canons and has generated reactions of rejection and disgust, it has engaged in “politics” in the ancient sense of the word and has produced new forms of sociological intelligence
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
