“…Finally, socioculturalism centres on the belief that people learn according to the society in which they are placed. The individual learns the rules of that society, and their values and practices stem from the societies constraints and norms (Hjorland 2000). Starting at the base of the triangle, the individual first assimilates knowledge only.…”

Education, from a student perspective, is largely driven by assessment. An effective assessment tool should be both valid and reliable, yet this is often not achieved. The aim of this literature review is to identify and appraise the evidence base for assessment tools used primarily in evaluating clinical skills of dental students.Methods: MEDLINE was searched for all relevant articles from January 1950-January 2011 published in the English language. References of the articles were then hand searched.This review begins with a brief outline of the student learning process and the aim of assessment. The tools available for both formative and summative assessments are discussed, with particular reference to those used in assessing dental students' clinical ability. The problems of subjectivity and assessor variability associated with traditional teacher-led assessments are highlighted. Methods which have attempted to overcome these problems, such as the use of checklists and training are then discussed. The benefits and shortcomings of the use of students as assessors, both in self and peer assessment are reviewed. Finally, the use of objective assessment methods involving opto-electronic and haptic technology is considered.

“…All three fields are concerned with people, information, technology, and organization and society (broadly defined), and the interplay among these components. These fields also share many other characteristics (Bates, 1999;Grudin, 2005;Grudin, 2006a;Grudin, 2006b;Hjorland, 2000;Hjorland & Albrechtsen, 1995;Zhang et al, 2002;Zhang & Dillon, 2003;Zhang & Li, 2005;Zhang, Nah, & Preece, 2004). In recent years, researchers trained in one field conduct research that cuts across the other fields.…”

Many scientific fields share common interests for research and education. Yet, very often, these fields do not communicate to each other and are unaware of the work in other fields. Understanding the commonalities and differences among related fields can broaden our understanding of the interested phenomena from various perspectives, better utilize resources, enhance collaboration, and eventually move the related fields forward together.In this article, we present a conceptual framework, namely the Information-Model or I-model, to describe various aspects of information related fields. We consider this a timely effort in light of the evolutions of several information related fields and a set of questions related to the identities of these fields. It is especially timely in defining the newly formed Information Field from a community of twenty some information schools. We posit that the information related fields are built on a number of other fields but with their own unique foci and concerns. That is, core components from other fundamental fields interact and integrate with each other to form dynamic and interesting information related fields that all have to do with information, technology, people, and organization/society. The conceptual framework can have a number of uses. Besides providing a unified view of these related fields, it can be used to examine old case studies, recent research projects, educational programs and curricula concerns, as well as to illustrate the commonalities and differences with the information related fields.

“…Os estudos em Ciência da Informação, de modo sintético, perpassam três paradigmas: o paradigma cognitivo focaliza os processos de organização e tratamento da informação, a partir de uma abordagem centrada no indivíduo; o paradigma físico está direcionado também para a organização e tratamento da informação, mas, numa perspectiva sistêmica, fundada nos processos tecnológicos; e por último, o paradigma social, denominado por Hjørland (2000) como uma abordagem centrada nos processos sociais e culturais, objetiva a análise da informação socialmente construída.…”

RESUMOIntrodução: Analisa a informação como uma dimensão determinante no processo de reprodução social, portanto, um fenômeno que não pode ser desprezado na análise da sociedade. Objetivo: Situar o uso da informação e do conhecimento como uma prática social e eminentemente coletiva, que se estabelece na relação entre sujeitos e entre o sujeito e o seu meio (território), com base no paradigma social da informação. Metodologia: Desenvolve a partir de pesquisa bibliográfica articulação teórica, sob uma abordagem interdisciplinar, tratando do lugar da informação e do conhecimento na sociedade e da relação entre as categorias controle social e controle social da informação como mecanismo social para a efetivação da governança informacional sob um regime de informação, para atendimento da necessidade comunicacional e informacional da sociedade.
