In biblioteca con un click (POK)

Strumenti a supporto della ricerca bibliografica. Spesso quando si ha un bisogno informativo, anche complesso, si tende a rivolgersi a Internet per l'apparente facilità della ricerca, ma sovrastimando la capacità della Rete di fornire risultati pertinenti ed affidabili. Per contro, la stessa ricerca di informazioni bibliografiche attraverso gli strumenti messi a disposizione dalla propria Università può sembrare complessa e laboriosa.

Il corso dà indicazioni sulla metodologia della ricerca bibliografica e documentale (come impostare correttamente una ricerca, come focalizzare e formulare la domanda di ricerca, come valutare le fonti a disposizione) e individua gli strumenti più appropriati per effettuarla tra quelli più frequentemente disponibili presso le biblioteche universitarie. Verrà inoltre sottolineata l’importanza del rispetto del diritto d’autore e dell’uso della citazione per favorire il corretto trattamento delle informazioni e non incorrere nel plagio.

Il corso è pensato come uno strumento agile, calato nella realtà e ricco di esempi, rivolto agli studenti universitari, ma potrà risultare utile a chiunque voglia migliorare le proprie capacità nell’acquisire informazioni, utilizzando le strategie apprese, oltre che nei tradizionali cataloghi di biblioteca online, anche nei più diffusi motori di ricerca.
Il corso è strutturato in 3 week.
Week 1 – Come iniziare una ricerca bibliografica?
Week 2 – Quali strumenti utilizzare?
Week 3 – Come gestire i risultati?
Ciascuna week ha al suo interno diverse lezioni, composte da video e testi scritti. Alla fine di ogni week sono presenti quiz di autovalutazione.
Se parteciperai attivamente a questo corso, raggiungerai diversi Risultati di Apprendimento Attesi.

Text Retrieval and Search Engines (Coursera)

Recent years have seen a dramatic growth of natural language text data, including web pages, news articles, scientific literature, emails, enterprise documents, and social media such as blog articles, forum posts, product reviews, and tweets. Text data are unique in that they are usually generated directly by humans rather than a computer system or sensors, and are thus especially valuable for discovering knowledge about people’s opinions and preferences, in addition to many other kinds of knowledge that we encode in text.

Diagnosing Health Behaviors for Global Health Programs (Coursera)

Health behavior lies at the core of any successful public health intervention. While we will examine the behavior of individual in depth in this course, we also recognize by way of the Ecological Model that individual behavior is encouraged or constrained by the behavior of families, social groups, communities, organizations and policy makers. We recognize that behavior change is not a simplistic process but requires an understanding of dimensions like frequency, complexity and cultural congruity. Such behavioral analysis is strengthened through the use of a toolkit of theoretical models and practical frameworks.

Bioinformatic Methods II (Coursera)

Large-scale biology projects such as the sequencing of the human genome and gene expression surveys using RNA-seq, microarrays and other technologies have created a wealth of data for biologists. However, the challenge facing scientists is analyzing and even accessing these data to extract useful information pertaining to the system being studied. This course focuses on employing existing bioinformatic resources – mainly web-based programs and databases – to access the wealth of data to answer questions relevant to the average biologist, and is highly hands-on.
