La visibilidad de una revista académica electrónica. Una perspectiva comunicacional.

The visibility of an electronic academic journal exposes, under a communicational perspective, the visibility of the Electronic Magazine of Educational Research (Redie) through the analysis of its contents and communication processes. In this sense, it studies the consumption of the information produced by the journal through its procedures of introspection. The research is based on a methodology of quantitative cut that, at the same time, is aided by the analysis of bibliometric indicators (institution, academic degree, nationality of the authors, gender, level of authorship, etc.) and cybermetric (countries from which the journal is consulted, the origin of the connection, the keywords used in the search, the number of downloads of articles in portable document version [pdf, for short] English], and the total number of unique visitors per month and year) to evaluate two fundamental points in the publication: internal communication generated from its authors and the stable external communication cida by the users (readers). Finally, the results show the level of visibility of the publication

La delgada línea entre derechos humanos, comunicación y gênero

The theoretical work, briefly addresses some approaches that delineate the narrow and polysemous relationship between human rights, communication and gender. It should be recognized that these concepts - interwoven in the social sciences - have been explained and reinterpreted in various fields through the existing sociocultural transformations, so the document will not necessarily delve into definitions, since each meaning should be placed in the diverse areas in which these notions continue immersed. Under this reflection, the objective of the article provides three aspects, identifying the thin relationship between human rights, communication and gender, emphasizing the "right to communicate" as an inherent right to the human being; in a second aspect, the visible position is addressed sexist that widens the inequality gap between men and women in the field of communication as a profession, and third, no less relevant, states that in countries like Mexico, a continuous violation of the "right to communicate" coexists. The results show that the gender perspective is a cultural construction that directly affects the composition of human rights, which confirms that communication is considered key in the development of the configuration of social practices on human rights more elementary In addition, it is identified in the literature, that despite various efforts, women are still poorly represented in the media content; finally, Mexico is indicated as the sixth country with the highest number of violations of human rights of communicators, regardless of their gender

Las revistas académicas de comunicación de acceso abierto en México. Retos y vicisitudes

Introduction. The research exposes the case of academic journals of open access communication in Mexico, their background, current status, challenges and vicissitudes. It also distinguishes the number of undergraduate and graduate degrees in communication in the country with the idea of ​​reflecting and relating the information to the total of existing journals. Methodology: Descriptive, the work is based on the review of open access academic publications that deal with communication issues. It identifies the characteristics of the adjective "academic", examines their visibility through indexing to databases, access formats, use of the Open Journal Systems (ojs), inclusion of the digital object identifier (doi), use of antiplagiarism programs, adherence to the Committee on Publication Ethics (Cope), use of Creative Commons licenses, and registration of citing in Google Scholar, various access formats, among others. Results and discussion: In two tables, the current status of open access communication journals in Mexico recognizes that existing publications are insufficient; that, in parallel, they coexist with their printed version, and that the electronic version is lagging behind technological advances and international standardization processes that leaves them out of the interest of some of the national authors to publish in them. It also recognizes the existence of journals endorsed by educational institutions, which do not have precisely the interest of being indexed to national and international databases, since their inbred/institutional role allows them to be appropriately a learning platform for the training of academics who for the first time experience the art of publishing

Minimum Education Requirements for Crime Scene Investigators

The initial crime scene investigation is critical since it is the primary step in the investigative process; therefore, individuals assigned to process a scene should be highly educated. Improperly educated (or uneducated) crime scene investigators (CSIs) can mishandle evidence during an investigation, affecting the outcome of cases. The minimum education requirement for CSIs should transition from a high school diploma—the current requirement—toward a bachelor’s degree. The importance of acquiring a college-level education is observed in a study conducted on crime scene examiners in Australia. To determine the educational requirement for CSIs in the United States, information was gathered electronically from numerous law enforcement departments. The most common entry-level education was a high school diploma, followed by an associate’s degree, and lastly, a bachelor’s degree. A bachelor’s degree, with coursework specifically intended for individuals not wanting to work in a laboratory, will ensure CSIs are well equipped to correctly perform their duties

Marketing digital y posicionamiento web en comunicación científica

Internet is a big self-service library, open 24×7, where you have to know how to describe yourself to be retrieval in this OPAC. There is a symbiosis between scientific production, academic profile or personal branding, and visible science. Based on the results of a previous investigation of 2257 Spanish researchers in the area of Communication, where the need to be present on the Internet is confirmed, a second investigation is designed. In this second work to study the positive influence of designing and applying digital marketing strategies to a junior researcher. Triangulation of results: for the quantitative analysis the flows of visits registered in ORCID, Google Scholar, Publons, ReaserchGate, Academia.edu, Exit Directory and Mendeley; for qualitative analysis, is planned an interview with the subject of the study. The research hypothesis is verified and interesting results are obtained with SEO program, SemRush
