    Прашањето за воспитувањето на детето претставува неисцрпен и вечено актуелен педагошки проблем. Разгледувањето на досегашните толкувања по однос на различните пристапи во процесот на воспитување ja овозможува тенденцијата за нивно перманентно осовременување. Во овој труд акцентот е поставен на анализа на едно поинакво размислување за воспитување на децата кој и денес ce толкува како современ. Прашањата поврзани со воспитувањето, улогата и ликот на воспитувачот како и примената на соодветните воспитни средства претставуваат само дел од авангардните погледи на авторката Елен Кеј. Иако нејзиното дејтвување во oваa област ce случувало одамна сепак понудените ставови ги разгледуваме како мотивација во похрабра потрага по создавање на успешна воспитна филозофија, која идејата за векот на детето ќе ja направи остварлива.The issue concerning child teaching represents an endless and ongoing pedagogical problem. Studying the different interpretations in terms of the various approaches to the teaching process enables their continuous improvement. In this work, the emphasis is put on the analysis of a different view concerning child teaching, which even today isregarded as contemporary. The issues connected to education, the role and the character of the teacher, as well as the application of the appropriate teaching means, represent just one part of the avantgarde views of the author Ellen Kay. Although her activity in this field happened a long time ago, nevertheless we will review her opinions as motivating in a bolder search for the creation of a successful teaching philosophy, which will fulfill the idea of the century of the child

    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” 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

    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

    Математика и музика, антипод једна другој, од најстаријих периода људске цивилизације развијале су се кроз природу и у природи. И једна и друга област полазеод практичне потребе човека за премеравањем, пребројавањем, упоређивањем – математика; односно, песмом, ритмом, плесом – музика. Указујући на историјски развој и филозофска становишта, како математике тако и музике, уочава се да су поменуте областипрешле пут од практичних делатности ка апстрактним дисциплинама науке и уметности. На том путу развоја, математика и музика, од самих почетака укрштале су своје теоријске основе и на тај начин међусобно допринеле формирању појединих математичких односно музичких закона и законитости. Ако би се теорија музике и/или дела великих уметникапосматрала оком математике, у њима би се пронашле математичке законитости, које су или биле основ за формирање музичких правила, или су, пак, и математика и музика у свом развоју прихватиле нека заједничка начела и принципе и по њима градиле своје теоријске основе. Кроз историјски развој,филозофска гледишта великих мислилаца, као и кроз указивање на конкретне примере везе математике и музике у раду се указује да су, иако априори неспојиве, математика и музика две дисциплине које се међусобно прожимају и међу којима постоји нераскидива веза. Педагошки део рада који је обухватио и емпиријско истраживање, има за циљ да представи у којој мери примена конкретне математичко-музичке игре доприноси дечјем социјалном, емотивном и когнитивном развоју, те развоју социо-емотивних и когнитивних вештина деце узраста од осам до дванаест година старости. Повезивање математичких и музичких садржаја и њихово обликовање у дидактичку игру1 идеја је водиља методолошког дела рада.Истраживање је спроведено у две интернационалне школе на територији Београда уз примену игреMusical Monkeys, а у сарадњи са тимом MusicMathиз Мексика, који су и креатори поменуте игре. ИграMusical Monkeys, одабрана је због своје интердисциплинарности, педагошке подобности, интерактивности, динамичности и иновативности.Резултати истраживања показали су да овакав приступ у раду са децом подстиче пажњу и мотивацију, активност и ангажовање у настави, захтева и подстиче критичко мишљење при решавању постављених математичких и/или музичких задатака, доприноси сарадњи, колаборацији, конструктивној комуникацији и тимском раду деце, уважавању мишљења других, проналажењу заједничке стратегије решења проблема, те поштовању правила игре, као и ентузијазму, осећању радости и међусобном уживању при реализацији постављених задатака. Добијени резултати потврђују да су деца повезала садржаје две области, математике и музикеи да је за њих, тај моменат био један у низу интересантних у самој игри... јер, питање је,како je заправо могуће повезати математику и музику?Mathematics and music, in a mutual antipodal position, have developed from the earliest periods of human civilisation through and within the nature. Both these areas start from the practical need of man to measure, build, count, compare in the case of mathematics, and song, rhythm and dance, in the case of music. Pointing to the historic development and the philosophical stance of both mathematics and music, it is apparent that these areas have progressed from practical activities to abstract scientific and artistic disciplines. On this development path, mathematics and music have from the very beginning interweaved their theoretical foundations, thereby jointly contributing to formation of individual mathematical and musical laws and rules. If we were to view the theory of music and/or works of great musicians from a mathematical point of view, we would discover mathematical rules as a base for formation of musical patterns, or it could be concluded that both mathematics and music have introduced certain mutual principles in their respective courses of development, using these principles to build their theoretical foundations. Following the course of historical development, philosophical stances of great thinkers, while also pointing to concrete examples of links between mathematics and music, the paper aims to show that although a priori unrelatable, mathematics and music represent two mutually interconnected disciplines, with unbreakable bonds. The pedagogical part of the paper included empirical research, aims to present the extent to which the application of the concrete mathematical and musical play contributes to the child‟s social, emotional and cognitive development, as well as development of the social and emotional and cognitive skills in children aged eight to twelve. By connecting mathematical and musical contents and their shaping in a didactic play2 is the guiding ide of the methodological part of the paper. The research was conducted in two international schools in Belgrade, using the play titled „Musical Monkeys‟ and in collaboration with the MusicMath team from Mexico. The results of the research have shown that this kind of approach in working with children encourages 2 Didactic play – a complex pedagogical activity which enables mastering if certain contents and knowledge, development of capabilities as well as an experience of consequences of own actions in the play (Bognar i Matijević,1993). attention and motivation, activity and engagement, while requiring and encouraging critical thinking in solving the set mathematical and/or musical tasks, contributing to cooperation, collaboration, constructive communication and team work of children, appreciating others‟ opinions, finding a joint strategy in problem solving, as well as respecting the rules of the game, developing enthusiasm, feeling of happiness and joy in working on the set tasks. The obtained results confirm that the children established connection between the mathematical and musical segments, reaching a culmination in a moment of interest within the play, because of the inevitable question – how can mathematics and music be connected
