Music Information

Music information retrieval (MIR) is a multi-disciplinary research on retrieving information from music, see Fig. 1. This research involves scientists from traditional, music and digital libraries, information science, computer science, law, business, engineering, musicology, cognitive psychology and education (Downie, 2001).

As reflexões aqui expostas foram propiciadas pelo desenvolvimento do tema “Indicadores de Ciência, Tecnologia e Inovação”, fruto de reflexões teóricas e de práticas de pesquisa na área de Ciência da Informação. O artigo apresenta elementos conceituais presentes na construção de indicadores de ciência, tecnologia e inovação e resultados parciais referentes à primeira fase da pesquisa em andamento: "Indicadores de CT&I do Pólo Tecnológico de São Carlos: contribuições para um sistema local de inovação". Inicialmente, o artigo aborda os marcos conceituais dos indicadores de CT&I, que têm suas origens em várias disciplinas. A seguir, descrevemos as abordagens teóricas na construção de indicadores de CT&I. Enfocamos o uso da bibliometria para diagnosticar e analisar as atividades de CT&I. E finalmente, apresentamos uma primeira aproximação dos indicadores de CT&I do pólo tecnológico de São Carlos. Abstract The development of the issue "Science, Technology and Innovation Indicators" has motivated reflections that originated from both theoretical and research practice in the area of Information Science. This article demonstrates conceptual elements which are presented in science, technology and innovation indicators, and the outcomes are part of the first phase of a research in progress: "Indicators of ST&I of the Technopolis of São Carlos: contributions for a local system innovation". Firstly, the article presents a conceptual framework of the ST&I indicators, that have their origins in several disciplines. Then, a description of a theoretical approach in building on ST&I indicators was done. The usage of the bibliometrics to diagnosis and to analyse the ST&I activities is the main focus. At last, the first approach of the ST&I indicators in the technopolis of São Carlos City is presented.

Large Enrollment

Large-enrollment courses are often necessary platforms for teaching in universities all over the world. This article will begin with a theoretical approach in which we introduce proofs from cognitive psychology that demonstrate the effectiveness of active learning methods over the more traditional structured, lecture based, lessons. Second part consists of analysis of our lectures and described 5 possibilities how to motivate students to be active learners. The qualitative analysis of students’feedback is in the end of article. Students appreciated most using ICT tools for instant feedback during lectures and the fact that they had an option to be active.

Despite the fact that the origin of software agent systems has been rooted in autonomous artificial intelligence and cognitive psychology, their implementations are still based on conventional imperative computing techniques rather than autonomous computational intelligence. This paper presents a cognitive informatics perspective on autonomous agent systems (AAS’s). A hierarchical reference model of AAS’s is developed, which reveals that an autonomous agent possesses intelligent behaviors at three layers known as those of imperative, autonomic, and autonomous from the bottom up. The theoretical framework of AAS’s is described from the facets of cognitive informatics, computational intelligence, and denotational mathematics. According to Wang’s abstract intelligence theory, an autonomous software agent is supposed to be called as an intelligent-ware, shortly, an intelware, parallel to hardware and software in computing, information science, and artificial intelligence.

Meta Theory

Dervin's Sense-Making Methodology (SMM) has been frequently referred to and used as a substantive theory, particularly so in the field of Information Science. Yet, SMM was not developed as a substantive theory but rather as a philosophically informed methodological approach for attending to (and researching) human sense-making and sense-unmaking. In the field of Information Science, this “theoretical approach” has been most frequently used to explicate and study variable analytic measures categorized as information needs, seeking, and use. In its uses, SMM can be termed depending on context as theory, as well as meta-theory, methodology, and method. All of these perspectives are relevant to the purposes of this chapter - to position SMM within the Information Science field in terms of its historical origins and to describe how it's positioning as meta-theory, methodology, and method has had applications to the study of information needs, seeking, and use, and to substantive theorizing.
