The systematization of pre-professional practice and its articulation with research skills

This article presents a study on the systematization of pre-professional practice and aims to outline a theoretical-methodological model based on the Oscar Jara proposal, contributions from Neuroscience and Critical-Complex Thinking; to publicize the results of the evaluation of the systematization processes, their level of efficiency, and their articulation with the research skills in 1,150 students from four universities and a pedagogical institute in Peru; and finally, to socialize the results of the application of the model in experimentation in 289 students of said population. The methodology used descriptive-correlative and experimental designs, with data collection through a virtual survey and an evaluation rubric. The results evidenced the precarious level of systematization and investigative capacity, the relationship between both variables, and the impact of the application of the model in an experimental group. Therefore, expanding spaces during pre-professional practice in institutions is recommended to generate an efficient systematization that guarantees the development of research skills in students and prepares them to carry out their research work.

Value-based Software Engineering: A Systematic Mapping Study

Abstract Background: Integrating value-oriented perspectives into the principles and practices of software engineering is fundamental to ensure that software development activities address key stakeholders’ views and also balance short-and long-term goals. This is put forward in the discipline of value-based software engineering (VBSE) Aim: This study aims to provide an overview of VBSE with respect to the research efforts that have been put into VBSE. Method: We conducted a systematic mapping study to classify evidence on value definitions, studies’ quality, VBSE principles and practices, research topics, methods, types, contribution facets, and publication venues. Results: From 143 studies we found that the term “value” has not been clearly defined in many studies. VB Requirements Engineering and VB Planning and Control were the two principles mostly investigated, whereas VB Risk Management and VB People Management were the least researched. Most studies showed very good reporting and relevance quality, acceptable credibility, but poor in rigor. The main research topic was Software Requirements and case study research was the method used the most. The majority of studies contribute toward methods and processes, while very few studies have proposed metrics and tools. Conclusion: We highlighted the research gaps and implications for research and practice to support VBSE.

Supplementary Materials for Drone Technologies: a tertiary systematic literature review on a decade of improvements

Supplementary Materials for Drone Technologies: a tertiary systematic literature review on a decade of improvements. Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) have emerged as versatile tools with significant potential in various fields, including, but not limited to civil engineering, ecology, networking and precision agriculture. Systematic literature reviews (SLRs) play a crucial role in assessing the quality of research methods and approaches, aiding researchers and practitioners in selecting and optimizing their projects. However, the quality assessment of UAV-related SLRs and the aggregation of UAV technologies across research fields remain limited. This study aims to address these gaps by conducting a tertiary literature review (TLR) that assesses the quality of SLRs, aggregates data across research fields, and provides guidelines for researchers and practitioners in the UAV community. This dataset covers the complete data-extraction and future research templates to enhance the quality and knowledge sharing in the UAV research community by providing insights into the current state of UAV-related SLRs.

[SZESLR] Semi-automated Systematic Literature Review (SLR) Design and P-graph (Process Graph Theory) SLR Database

(c) Széchenyi István University and Artificial Intelligence National Laboratory (MILAB) A proposed semi-automated Systematic Literature Review (SLR) design has been deployed to conduct an exhaustive literature review on contributions concerning applications of the P-graph framework as a case study. The P-graph framework (<a href="https://p-graph.org/">https://p-graph.org</a>) was initially conceived for solving problems related to the synthesis of chemical processes; in particular, the framework has been useful for developing sustainable and resilient systems. The current contribution includes the P-graph SLR database itself, and additionally, the Python scripts used to generate such results. The case study has been selected in view of the authors’ familiarity with the P-graph framework, and because they maintain a manually-collected database of works on the subject. The contributions concerning the framework are easily distinguishable from others involving similar methodologies. It was observed that the implementation of the proposed SLR design extended prior review papers on the P-graph framework and provided additional information on authors and institutions devoted to research on this subject. Generally, it is expected that the dataset will assist researchers, scholars, and practitioners concerned with industrial sustainability in streamlining their literature reviews, thus accelerating the acquisition of pertinent publications that could advance and enrich their own research works on such a subject. Moreover, it is expected that, with proper adaptation, the proposed semi-automated SLR design can be applied to conduct literature reviews in other scientific fields whose results can be validated against existing reviews when available. The normalized P-graph database hereby presented thus can be used as a source of validated information for researchers. The P-graph database was uploaded in various file formats that support database management software (e.g. Zotero .RIS) as well as an "EasyHandle" MS Office (.XLSX) file.

Professional Technology Enhanced Learning: Systematic Literature Review Dataset

Professional Technology-Enhanced Learning is concerned with technology-enhanced learning for professionals, i.e. people in employed jobs. Other terms used instead of professional learning are sometimes workplace learning or work-related learning; and there is a large overlap with research that focusses on informal, situated, or lifelong learning.  In this spreadsheet, we publish data collected for a systematic mapping study. The goal of the study was to map existing literature on professional technology-enhanced learning.  The data collection followed Kitchenham and Charter's (2007) method for systematic literature reviews.  This spreadsheet shows 58 papers, for which we excerpted authors (one, two or three author surnames fully shown, for more authors, only the first author name is shown with the extension "et al."), title, DOI or permanent link, the citation as given by the source, and the abstract. We hope that others find this data useful, and if they do so reference this data collection, referring to it as follows: Cicchinelli and Pammer-Schindler (2023).  Professional Technology Enhanced Learning: A Systematically Collected Dataset of Academic Publications in the Field.

Figure 2. Multivariate generalized linear mixed-effects model results showing joint effects of feeding strategies on dispersal modes in mites. Posterior means are given (dots), along with 50% (thick lines) and 95% (thin lines) credible intervals for Acariformes (orange) and Parasitiformes (violet). If the 95% credible intervals do not cover zero (intense colours), the particular dispersal mode is significantly more frequent or less frequent than expected by chance (at the α = 0.05 level).
