COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGES FOR TRAINING IN APPLIED SOCIAL SCIENCES

Abstract

The aim of this work was to conduct an academic and critical review of an international scientific article published in the journal Computer and Information Sciences. The original work was published in English, in a journal indexed in the ScienceDirect Platform, which has a set of 3,800 scientific journals published by the Elsevier database. The scope of this journal covers the following areas related to Applied Social Sciences: Big Data, Bioinformatics, Cloud Computing, e-Business, e-Learning, Information Security, Internet of Things, Machine Learning, Social Networks, among others. Why publish reviews? Reviews are excellent agile and analytical scientific instruments for producing, socializing and sharing instructive study materials for academic and professional environments, highlighting the main points of a work, saving resources for its readers (Calvosa, 2022; 2021). An academic and critical review aims to interpret a bibliographic or scientific publication with the aim of generating discussions, insights, or even the decision to consume the original work itself (Calvosa, 2020). As a theoretical contribution, it is suggested that the original article be used as support material, in the classroom, in undergraduate or graduate courses, for complementary support in theoretical classes, group dynamics, teaching cases or exercises involving the subareas: Information Systems, e-Learning or Computing. As a practical contribution, the SLR methodology, presented in the article, could be a valuable tool for the preparation of course completion papers or the preparation of articles, for example, by assisting researchers through a model for verifying reliable information.
