Presencialidade e currículo na educação de adultos: um debate necessário
Given the recent 'Proposal for the Curricular Structure for Secondary Education of Youth and Adults' from the province of Buenos Aires, the debate on adult education in general, the failure of secondary education (considering dropout rates and official statistics), and in-person versus semi-in-person learning has been reopened. In light of this reform attempt, this paper aims to investigate the relationship between in-person learning, curriculum, and access to knowledge in adult education. To achieve this, we will analyze the text of the 'Proposal' with the selected theoretical framework and, additionally, using interviews with practicing educators in the field, provide an additional analytical element specifically for the issue of in-person learning.Dada la reciente “Propuesta de estructura curricular para la educación secundaria de jóvenes y adultos” de la pcia de Buenos Aires, se ha reabierto el debate acerca de la rama de adultos en general, el fracaso de la secundaria (si observamos los niveles de deserción y las cifras oficiales) y la presencialidad o semipresencialidad. Frente a este intento de reforma, el presente trabajo apunta a indagar qué relación hay entre la presencialidad, el curriculum y el acceso al conocimiento en la rama de adultos. Para ello analizaremos el texto de la “Propuesta” con el marco teórico seleccionado para tal fin y además, utilizando entrevistas a docentes de la rama en ejercicio, aportaremos un elemento más de análisis para el tema de la presencialidad puntualmente.Dada a recente 'Proposta de estrutura curricular para a educação secundária de jovens e adultos' da província de Buenos Aires, o debate sobre a educação de adultos em geral, o fracasso do ensino secundário (se observamos os níveis de evasão e os dados oficiais) e a presencialidade ou semipresencialidade foi reaberto. Frente a essa tentativa de reforma, o presente trabalho tem como objetivo investigar qual é a relação entre a presencialidade, o currículo e o acesso ao conhecimento na educação de adultos. Para isso, analisaremos o texto da 'Proposta' com o referencial teórico selecionado para tal fim e, além disso, utilizando entrevistas com docentes da área em exercício, aportaremos um elemento adicional de análise para a questão da presencialidade especificamente

Facing this reform attempt, this paper aims to investigate the relationship between presentiality, curriculum and the access to knowledge in the branch of adult education. In order to do this, the text of the above-mentioned “Proposal” will be analyzed using the selected theoretical framework. Furthermore,an additional contribution will be made to the topic of presentialityby analyzing interviews with in-service teachers of this educational context.A recente "Proposta de estrutura curricular para o ensino médio para jovens e adultos" da Província de Buenos Aires, reabriu o debate sobre o ramo de adultos em geral, o fracasso do secundário (se olharmos para os níveis de desistência nos números oficiais) e a presencialidade ou semipresencialidade. Confrontados com esta tentativa de reforma, o presente trabalho tem como objetivo investigar qual é a relação entre a presencialidade, o currículo e acesso ao conhecimento no campo dos adultos. Vamos analisar o texto da "Proposta", com o referencial teórico escolhido para este fim e também entrevistas com professores da área, vamos trazer um elemento de análise para a questão da presencialidade
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
