    An educational quality depends heavily on the quality of the educational institution such as the senior high school and level above. The quality of senior high school level is often served as a benchmark for people to choose the right school for the community Hartono, Helmiati, Rado Yendra, Khairil Anwar, M Nizam Muhaijir, Ade Novia Rahma and Ahmad Fudholi http://www.iaeme.com/IJMET/index.asp 651 [email protected] through the educational institutions. This research aims to determine the best rank of senior high school in Pekanbaru using a Technique for others preference by similarity to ideal solution (TOPSIS) method. This method of weighted TOPSIS requires range criterions. To determine the weight of each criterion, this study uses AHP method as the supporter for determining the weight of each criterion and gives the rank to the senior high school in which majors are the natural science and the social science department. The results obtained are the best rank for natural science majors of senior high schools in Pekanbaru is SMAN 1 Pekanbaru and the best rank for social science majors of senior high schools in Pekanbaru is SMAN 8 Pekanbaru. For the private high school, it can be said that Pekanbaru Djuwita private high school becomes the first rank of science majors and the Private high school of Witama Nasional Plus Pekanbaru becomes the first rank of the social science Department. For the high school and the private high school, SMAN 8 Pekanbaru obtains the first rank in the science majors and the first rank in the social science department. Key words: Multicriteria decision making, priority ranking, TOPSIS, AHP method, SMAN, Pekanbar

    Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui apakah terdapat perbedaan pemahaman konsep antara siswa yang belajar menggunakan strategi Think Talk Write dengan model Discovery Learning dengan siswa yang memperoleh pembelajaran konvensional dan mengetahui adanya peningkatan antara siswa yang belajar menggunakan strategi Think Talk Write dengan model Discovery Learning dengan siswa yang memperoleh pembelajaran konvensional. Dalam penelitian ini rumusan masalahnya adalah “1.) Apakah terdapat perbedaan pemahaman konsep antara siswa yang belajar menggunakan strategi Think Talk Write dengan model Discovery Learning dengan siswa yang memperoleh pembelajaran konvensional? Dan 2.) Apakah pembelajaran matematika dengan menggunakan strategi Think Talk Write dengan model Discovery Learning dapat meningkatkan pemahaman konsep matematika siswa?” Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian kuasi eksperimen yaitu peneliti berperan langsung sebagai guru dalam proses pembelajaran. Subjek dalam penelitian ini adalah siswa kelas VIII MTS-TI Batubelah Kecamatan Kampar yang berjumlah 40 orang dan objek penelitian ini adalah pemahaman konsep siswa kelas VIII dengan menggunakan strategi Think Talk Write dengan model Discovery Learning. Peneliti menggunakan Observasi, dokumentasi, dan tes untuk pengambilan data dalam penelitian ini. Dalam penelitian ini, pertemuan dilaksanakan selama delapan kali, yaitu 6 kali pertemuan dengan menggunakan strategi Think Talk Write dengan model Discovery Learning, satu kali pertemuan pretes yaitu ulangan harian dan satu kali pertemuan lagi dilaksanakan postes. Untuk mengetahui hasil penelitian tersebut dengan menggunakan tes-t untuk mengetahui ada atau tidaknya perbedaan pemahaman konsep siswa, dan rumus N-Gain untuk mengetahui besar penigkatan pemahaman konsep siswa. Berdasarkan hasil analisis data tersebut, peneliti dapat menyimpulkan bahwa terdapat perbedaan pemahaman konsep yang signifikan antara siswa yang menggunkan strategi Think Talk Write dengan model Discovery Learning dengan siswa yang memperoleh pembelajaran konvensional. dan terjadi peningkatan pemahaman konsep siswa dengan menggunakan strategi Think Talk Write dengan model Discovery Learning

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed

    Variations on the Author

    “Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship

    Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis

    Get PDF
    We provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis

    Panjang garis singgung melalui suatu titik di luar parabola dapat ditentukan dengan satu alternatif yaitu dengan jarak antara dua titik. Penulis menemukan alternatif lain menentukan panjang garis singgung melalui suatu titik di luar parabola dengan menggunakan konsep garis kutub. Kata kunci: panjang garis singgung, persamaan garis kutub, parabola. Alternative Way in Determining The Length of Tangent Outside The Parabola The length of tangent which pass through a certain point outside the parabola can be using the distance between two points. In this study, the finding revealed another alternative for deciding the length of tangent trough one point outside the parabola by using the concept of the poles. Keywords: equality of the poles, the length of tangent, parabol

    Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts

    We conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more sophisticated methods
