    Las competencias comunicativas constituyen una herramienta fundamental en la formación del profesional de la Zootecnia, desde el plano de su integralidad y desarrollo del campo ocupacional. Desde esta posición, se realizó un acercamiento conceptual tomando como base los postulados de diversos autores, especialmente el enfoque de Paul Ricoeur, que muestra la importancia del conocerse a sí mismo y cómo se constituye el hombre capaz. Para tener un panorama más exacto, se aplicó a todos los estudiantes del programa de zootecnia un cuestionario formulado sobre las bases de la expresión oral y escrita extraído de la operatividad de la investigación, se utilizó el método cuantitativo, la información obtenida fue tabulada y analizada con el software SPSS versión 15. Los resultados arrojaron gran dificultad en la utilización de las competencias comunicativas para favorecer la integralidad del perfil profesional, permitiéndonos por medio de otras investigaciones crear un plan de mejora desde el pensum.MaestríaMagíster en Práctica Pedagógic

    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

    Full text link
    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

    Full text link
    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

    Caracterización bromatológica de pastos en seis municipios del Departamento de Norte de Santander; Colombia: Bromatological characterization of pastures in six municipalities of the Department of Norte de Santander; Colombia

    Full text link
    The bromatological analysis of pastures takes on great importance because these are the main source of food for livestock systems in Norte de Santander and in general in the country. The aim of this study was to carry out a bromatological characterization of pastures in six municipalities of Norte de Santander and thus know the productive potential of the department. Ten forage species with average ages between 29 and 47 days were evaluated to determine if there were differences in the nutritional composition of these forage species in the six municipalities of interest. Crude protein, ethereal extract, ash, lignin, cellulose, hemicellulose, FDN, FDA, macro and micronutrient content and energy assessment were evaluated. It was found that the forage species and the municipality where they develop, influence the vast majority of the nutritional quality parameters evaluated. Kikuyo grass presented the highest averages for PC (12.84 %) and ash (11.96 %), Maralfalfa grass presented the highest average values of energy (ENL = 1338.66 kcal / kg, ENM = 1434 kcal / kg and ENG = 713.66 kcal / kg) and in relation to the municipality, Pamplona presented the highest mean values of PC (12.84%) and ash (11.96%) and Chinácota presented the highest average values for energy (ENL = 1390.03 kcal/kg, ENM = 1495 kcal/kg and ENG = 774.38 kcal/kg). It was possible to recognize the values of nutritional quality, energy contents, macro and micronutrient contents associated with the predominant pastures in the 210 farms of the six municipalities of Norte de Santander, finding that the vast majority of bromatological variables of the pastures are influenced by the type of species and the area where they develop.El análisis bromatológico de los pastos es importante debido a que son la principal fuente de alimentación de los sistemas ganaderos en Norte de Santander y en general del país. El objetivo de este estudio fue realizar una caracterización bromatológica de pastos en seis municipios de Norte de Santander. Se evaluaron diez pastos con edades promedios entre los 29 y 47 días para determinar si existían diferencias en la composición nutricional de dichas especies forrajeras en los seis municipios. Fueron evaluadas las variables proteína cruda (PC), extracto etéreo, ceniza, lignina, celulosa, hemicelulosa, FDN, FDA, los contenidos de macro y micronutrientes y la valoración energética. Se encontró que el pasto y el municipio, influyen en la mayoría de las variables de calidad nutricional evaluadas. El Kikuyo presento las mayores medias de PC (12,84 %) y ceniza (11,96 %) y el Maralfalfa presento los valores medios más altos de energía (ENL = 1338,66 kcal/kg, ENM = 1434 kcal/kg y ENG = 713,66 kcal/kg). Pamplona presento los valores medios más altos de PC (12,84 %) y ceniza (11,96 %) y Chinácota los valores medios más altos para energía ( ENL = 1390,03 kcal/kg, ENM = 1495 kcal/kg y ENG = 774,38 kcal/kg). Se logro reconocer los valores de calidad nutricional y los contenidos de energía, de macro y micronutrientes asociados a los pastos predominantes en las 210 fincas de los seis municipios de Norte de Santander, encontrando que la mayoría de las variables bromatológicas están influenciadas por la especie forrajera y el municipio

    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
