Inclusive education: pedagogical and collaborative practices for students with autism spectrum disorder
O contexto escolar, a educação inclusiva e o Transtorno do Espectro do Autismo (TEA), foram o foco deste estudo. O objetivo foi analisar quais os fatores que favorecem o trabalho desenvolvido pela equipe interprofissional, composta por gestores e docentes da escola pesquisada, a fim de verificar a relevância do planejamento e organização de espaços e tempos de educação inclusiva no ambiente escolar para os estudantes com TEA. A metodologia contemplou a abordagem qualitativa com o delineamento de acordo com a Análise de Conteúdo. A pesquisa foi realizada em uma unidade de ensino particular, no município de Santos/SP. O procedimento adotado foi a aplicação de um questionário; participaram desta pesquisa 21 profissionais da educação. A coleta de dados buscou a visão dos gestores e docentes sobre a estrutura física da escola em relação à educação inclusiva, as percepções e observações dos professores sobre o processo de ensino-aprendizagem dos estudantes com TEA. Após análise dos resultados preliminares, chegou-se à definição de quatro categorias: 1ª Estratégias de intervenção e de apoio da gestão escolar e da equipe interprofissional com relação à educação inclusiva e as políticas públicas educacionais; 2ª Concepções sobre a formação docente, o desenvolvimento profissional, o trabalho pedagógico e as relações interpessoais; 3ª Organização, Planejamento e Processos de adaptação do currículo; 4ª Concepções da estrutura organizacional, características arquitetônicas e pedagógicas para o atendimento da educação inclusiva. Como resultados: na categoria 1, verificou-se a importância e a prioridade do apoio da equipe gestora com relação à inclusão do estudante com TEA no ambiente escolar e o investimento na formação continuada e capacitação dos docentes. Na categoria 2, observou-se a fragilidade e carência na formação inicial dos docentes em nível superior para atuar junto a estudantes com TEA, resultando na busca de cursos de especialização para subsidiar as ações interventivas com o estudante. Na categoria 3, constatou-se que a elaboração do plano de ensino individualizado (PEI) de acordo com as dificuldades e as necessidades de cada estudante e adaptação de materiais pedagógicos. Quanto à categoria 4, identificou-se a necessidade de espaços externos no ambiente escolar para um atendimento pedagógico especializado e individualizado. Foram propostos dois produtos técnicos: o primeiro denominado como Curso de Formação Profissional que propõe um curso para a formação dos profissionais da educação, com objetivo de orientar e fundamentar cientificamente a prática profissional da equipe gestora e dos docentes sobre o Transtorno do Espectro do Autismo (TEA) e o segundo designado Material Didático - Sala de Recursos Multifuncionais (SRM): Apoio ao Trabalho Pedagógico para Estudantes com TEA, cujo objetivo é a organização dos brinquedos, jogos, música entre outros recursos didáticos e lúdicos que irão compor a SRM para subsidiar o trabalho pedagógico do docente em sala de aula, com os estudantes com TEA, no período regular das aulas, considerando as suas necessidades específicas.The school context, inclusive education and Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) were the focus of this study. The objective was to analyze which factors favor the work developed by the interprofessional team, composed of managers and teachers of the researched school, in order to verify the relevance of planning and organizing spaces and times of inclusive education in the school environment for students with ASD. The methodology included the qualitative approach with the outline according to the Content Analysis. The research was carried out in a private teaching unit, in the city of Santos / SP. The procedure adopted was the application of a questionnaire; 21 education professionals participated in this research. Data collection sought the view of managers and teachers about the physical structure of the school in relation to inclusive education, the perceptions, and observations of teachers about the teaching-learning process of students with ASD. After analyzing the preliminary results, four categories were defined: 1st Intervention and support strategies for school management and the interprofessional team in relation to inclusive education and educational public policies; 2nd Conceptions about teacher training, professional development, pedagogical work and interpersonal relationships; 3rd Organization, Planning and Processes for adapting the curriculum; 4th Conceptions of the organizational structure, architectural and pedagogical characteristics for the care of inclusive education. As a result: in category 1, the importance and priority of support from the management team in relation to the inclusion of students with ASD in the school environment and the investment in continuing education and training of teachers was verified. In category 2, there was a fragility and lack of initial training of teachers at a higher level to work with students with ASD, resulting in the search for specialization courses to subsidize interventional actions with the student. In category 3, it was found that the development of the individualized teaching plan (PEI) according to the difficulties and needs of each student and adaptation of teaching materials. As for category 4, the need for external spaces in the school environment for specialized and individualized pedagogical assistance was identified. Two technical products were proposed: a) Professional Training Course - Teacher Training on Autism Spectrum Disorder (TEA), with the objective of providing scientific guidance and support to the management team and teachers regarding the theory and practice of inclusive education on the subject. Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD); b) Didactic Material - Multifunctional Resource Room (SRM): Support for Pedagogical Work for Students with ASD, a specialized space for the organization of didactic and pedagogical material for teachers who work with inclusive education in the care of students with ASD, in the regular period classes, considering their specific needs. The environment is also intended to subsidize practical classes and teacher training.Universidade Católica de Santos - Católica de Santo
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

Author Under Sail The Imagination of Jack London, 1893-1902
In Author Under Sail, Jay Williams offers the first complete literary biography of Jack London as a professional writer engaged in the labor of writing. It examines the authorial imagination in London's work, the use of imagination in both his fiction and nonfiction, and the ways he defined imagination in the creative process in his business dealings with his publishers, editors, and agents. In this first volume of a two-volume biography, Williams traverses the years 1893 to 1902, from London's "Story of a Typhoon" to The People of the Abyss. The Jack London who emerges in the pages of Author Under Sail is a writer whose partnership with publishers, most notably his productive alliance with George Brett of Macmillan, was one of the most formative in American literary history. London pioneered many author models during the heyday of realism and naturalism, blurring the boundaries of these popular genres by focusing on absorption and theatricality and the representation of the seen and unseen. London created an impassioned, sincere, and extremely personal realism unlike that of other American writers of the time. Author Under Sail is a literary tour de force that reveals the full range of London as writer, creative citizen, and entrepreneur at the same time it sheds light on the maverick side of machine-age literature.Intro -- Title Page -- Copyright Page -- Dedication -- Contents -- Acknowledgments -- Introduction -- 1.
