Boken er interessant både for Europastudier og Japanstudier, men også for forskere og studenter som er interessert i internasjonal politikk mer generelt. Her får leseren en oversikt over samarbeidet mellom Japan og EU, samt hvordan stormaktene rundt ser på denne utviklingen. Professor Paul Midford (Institutt for Sosiologi og Statsvitenskap) er en av redaktørene av boken.

Magnus og Solvor medforfattere på artikkel i PLOS One

 

[English text below]

Vårt samarbeid med forskere ved CHAIN– Centre for Global Health Inequalities Research har gitt resultater i form av en artikkel som har fått tittelen:

«Technological innovations and social inequalities in health: a scoping review of the literaure.»

 

Denne artikkelen er blitt utgitt i et internasjonalt tidsskrift som heter Plos One. Plus One er et nivå 1 tidsskift, som er både fagfellevurdert og Open Access.

Etterspørsel etter Systematiske søkeoppdrag på forespørsel fra de vitenskapelige miljøene ved HumSam har økt den siste tiden. Innen de medisinske miljøene har det lenge vært en tradisjon for å delta på slike søkeoppdrag, men nå ser vi at det kommer mer av dette også innen de samfunnsvitenskapelige fagene.

Å delta på slike søkeoppdrag er en ganske omfattende prosess, med en god del feiling og prøving før man kommer frem til det endelige søkeoppsettet. Dette innebærer alt fra valg av emneord, kombinasjon av emneord, trunkeringer og forkortelser. Nærhetsoperatorer (som varierer fra database til database) kan være veldig avgjørende i slike store søk, valg av databaser som gjør at man er ganske sikker på at hele området er dekket (helt sikker blir man vel aldri!).

Etter at selve søkeprosessen var gjennomført ble det foretatt en dublettsjekk i EndNote. Deretter gikk vi igjennom de resterende referansene sammen med de andre forfatterne.

En stor og artig jobb med et samarbeid som har fungert godt, og som har ført til flere lignende oppdrag som vi holder på med nå!

 

New article published in PLOS One

Our collaboration with researchers at CHAIN Centre for Global Health Inequalities Research has resulted in an article “Innovative technologies and social inequalities in health: A scoping review of the literature”

The article was published in PLOS One, a peer reviewed Open Access journal.

 

Systematic searching and related services are increasingly in demand from our patrons at the Section for Humanities and Social Sciences. This is a long-established service at the Medicine and Health Library, and now the social sciences are also asking for this service.

 

Participating in these systematic searches is an intensive process, with lots of trial and error before finally deciding on how to build the search.  This involves everything from choosing the correct terms, how to combines these, wildcards and so on. Proximity operators (which vary between databases) can play a crucial role in these large-scale searches, as will the choice of databases to search to make sure the whole domain is covered.

After the search was finished, we used Endnote to remove duplicate reference. After that we collaborated with the other authors for a final sorting of which references should be includes in the article.

 

Overall a fun experience, and a very successful collaboration! It has also served as a stepping stone for similar collaborations with other researchers.

Strangers in their own land: Anger and mourning on the american right


Boken gir et innblikk i det politiske landskapet i USA og prøver å forklare hvorfor den politiske debatten blir mer og mer polarisert. Boken bør være spesielt interessant for studenter og forskere innen sosiologi og statsvitenskap. Særlig interessant er kanskje kapittlene “Appendix A” og Appendix B, hvor forfatteren forklarer leseren hvordan selve forskningen er gjennomført.

Boken kan lånes på biblioteket

The book offers an insight into the political landscape in the US and tries to explain why the political debate is becoming increasingly polarised. The book should be of special interest for students and researchers in sociology and political science. Of particular interest for the aspiring sociologist or political scientist, is Appendix A and Appendix B, where the author explains how the research was conducted.

The book can be borrowed from the library

Eating your auntie is wrong : the world’s strangest customs

Once in a while you get some book titles that really trigger your curiosity?

A few «obvious» assumptions aobut the content of the book springs to mind quite quick:

Bad family relations?

Cannibalism?

Bad habits?

Traversing continents and centuries, Stephen Arnott has collected all manner of bizarrely fascinating customs—from sexual practices to the received wisdom on cannibalism.
The ancient Greeks, for example, thought a woman would not conceive if she wore a cat’s testicle tied in a tube across her navel. In China, the pillows under a dying person’s head were often removed; it was thought that a person who died looking at their feet would bring misfortune to their children. In many parts of the world, it is thought that if three people are photographed together, one will soon die—usually the one in the middle. And stranger still, the central European cure for baldness required the sufferer to eat a fresh bowl of chicken soup laced with pubic hair. From the first page to the last, Eating Your Auntie Is Wrong will have you reading in amazement.

Happy reading!

Food anthropology and books about food and drinks in general.

Our Dragvoll book collection on food customs, food anthropology, food recipes and food and drinks in general is growing.

Food studies and research on different aspect of food is growing so I have tried my best to build a collection that hopefully will grow in «popularity».

You will find most of the physical books at 394.12 on the shelf, but we also have a growing electronical collection of books about food as a topic.

A quick search with the keyword food and anthropology with a limit to material type: e-books in ORIA gave me the following titles. (Not only limited to Dragvoll but to the whole of NTNU as the case is for all
our e-resources).

PLU: Artikkel fra NTNU Stipendiat

Fredrik Mørk Røkenes, stipendiat ved Program for lærereutdanning,  kom i 2014 med en artikkel publisert i tidsskriftet Nordic Journal of Digital profileimageLiteracy,vol. 9,Nr. 4-2014. «Development of StudentTeachers’ Digital Competencein Teacher Education.

This article is a literature review of online peer-reviewed empirical studies from 2000 to 2013 regarding the development of digital competence of student teachers in teacher education qualified to teach in the secondary school grade level. The purpose of the review is to showcase and establish knowledge about empirical research on ICT-training in teacher education, and contribute with an overview of approaches for researchers, teacher educators, and policymakers on how teacher education develop student teachers’ digital competence for the secondary school grade level. A total of 42 studies met the inclusion criteria and were included in the review. Based on a thematic analysis of the studies, including coding and categorization strategies, eight approaches were identified: collaboration, metacognition, blending, modeling, authentic learning, student-active learning, assessment, and bridging theory/practice gap. The approaches consider ways that teacher education programs promote student teachers’ digital competence, and educate them in professionally using ICT for their future use in school and classroom teaching in secondary education.
