The Impact of Teachers Professionalism on Students’ Learning Motivation in Pandemic of Covid-19
No full textDue to the large-scale social restrictions resulting from the massive spread of the COVID-19 in Indonesia affecting all aspects of society and daily life, including in the world of education, students learn from home as an effort to slow down the spread of the virus. During this pandemic, teachers as professional staff are still required in carrying out teaching and learning activities, but at the same time ensure students in constructive activities. Therefore, this research aims to investigate the impact of teachers’ professionalism on students’ learning motivation in the era of the COVID-19 pandemic. A descriptive quantitative method is employed with 15 teachers and 30 students of SMK Al-Hidayah 1 Jakarta as the sample. The result obtained that there is no significant impact of teachers’ professionalism on students’ learning motivation in the era of the COVID-19 pandemic. The lack of teachers’ knowledge in conducting online learning and intrinsic factor were two possible reasons for this. It is suggested that teachers should be creative and design the material in accordance with the characteristics of learning amid in the COVID-19 Pandemic
Study Habits of Undergraduate Students During Pandemic of Covid-19
Full text linkThe spread of the corona virus (COVID-19) forces face-to-face learning activities to turn into virtual meetings in various online applications. This new learning system requires students to adjust their learning habits and be different from what they receive in conventional face-to-face classes. This study designs to determine the study habits of students during the COVID-19 pandemic. Seventy three undergraduate students from the Department of English Education, Universitas Indraprasta PGRI on Academic Year 2019/2020 was involved in this study. To collect data used a questionnaire containing 30 items with 2 answer options; and analyzed descriptively by considering five indicators of study habits (Time Management, Classroom Attendance & Participation, General Study Strategies, Exam Preparation and Note-taking). The results indicated that female students had better learning habits than male students, especially in time management, were active in learning activities, the ability to find learning materials / references, and the ability to take notes in general. Meanwhile, male students are more prepared than female students. The implications of this study are also a big part of the discussion in this article

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe 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
Full text link“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
Full text linkWe 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

Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Full text linkWe 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
