EC3metrics ha estado presente por primera vez en 2014 en la European Summer School for Scientometrics, la escuela de verano internacional que ofrece formación bibliométrica especializada cada año a 50 alumnos llegados desde todo el mundo.Nuestro compañero Álvaro Cabezas participó en dicho foro con una intervención acerca de las ventajas y limitaciones de Google Scholar, en una sesión dedicada a la evaluación de las Ciencias Sociales y Humanidades junto a Henk Moed, Philip Purnell, y Juan Gorráiz. En su intervención, Álvaro revisó los distintos productos de índole bibliométrica de Google Scholar mostrando sus puntos fuertes y débiles. Animó a los asistentes a experimentar con estos productos, si bien siendo conscientes de las precauciones que hay que tomar al usarlos con fines evaluativos.
Presentación realizada en la European Sumer for Scientometrics 2014. Viena, 10 de julio de 2014 http://www.scientometrics-school.eu/programme.html
Since its emergence in 2004, Google Scholar has attracted a huge interest in the scientific community. More recently, it has also drawn attention not only as a information source but also as a tool for evaluation purposes.
The launch of products such as Google Scholar Citations and Metrics or the recent agreement with Thomson Reuters' Web of Science shows that Google is already a major player in the scientific information market.
Its price (free), its huge coverage and the better attention to Social Science and Humanities (compared to commercial databases) has made Google Scholar a potentially valid source for bibliometrics in these areas. Nevertheless, Google Scholar (and their tools) presents many shortcomings that are necessary to know to perform reliable analysis.
In this session, we will briefly review Google Scholar pros and cons and will examine the usefulness of tools such as Citations and Metrics.
This presentation is about shortlisting and choosing journals for publishing. It also discusses quality issues, including predatory and hijacked journals. Most appropriate for Social Science students.
Making an Impact: The Impact Factor's Intent, Benefits, Limitations, and Comp...Erin Owens
The Impact Factor is popularly viewed as a representation of a scholarly journal's quality and desirability for publication. But this metric is frequently misused, while other metrics more suitable to a goal may be overlooked. This presentation will help researchers understand the purpose of the Impact Factor, analyze its benefits and limitations, and evaluate available alternatives.

La aplicación de Altmetrics en las áreas de investigación de Universidades españolas, con la búsqueda de publicaciones en cada institución y comparación de resultados obtenidos por cada una de ellas.
La revisión editorial es, en el proceso de comunicación científica, el primer proceso oficial de evaluación externa al que es sometido el artículo científico. A su vez, es el primer contacto de las revistas con sus trabajos y el principal método de “triaje”, que define la admisión del artículo para su evaluación y la selección de los revisores en caso de superar este primer obstáculo.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
