This thesis is about problems faced by English students of State College for
Islamic Studies in Speaking Skill. The objective of this research is to find out
problems faced by English students of State College for Islamic Studies (STAIN)
Palopo in Speaking Skill.
This thesis applied on descriptive research method. The writer used random
sampling technique. The instrument collects data of the research by using test
(Speaking Test) and questionnaire. Then the writer analyzed students’ score by using
percentage technique and mean score formula then explained the data qualitatively.
The result of data analysis shows that the English students have problems in
speaking skill. In which students’ ability in speaking skill were low score, their score
in speaking test was 6,8 and it was low score based on the indicator category. Based
on questionnaire clarified that most of students agreed by statement and questions
from questionnaire, and it showed that they had problems in speaking skill, the
English students’ problems of The State College for Islamic Studies (STAIN) Palopo
in speaking skill were (1) English students’ weakness: the students do not have
ambition/motivation to learn English, the students are shy and scare to do wrong to
speak English, lack of understanding in structure and grammar, the students are not
used to speaking English at their daily, lack of vocabulary, the students’ environment
that always use mother-tongue, (2) English lectures’ weakness: the usage of method
from the lectures’ teaching, the lectures seldom speak English in their teaching, the
lecture seldom come at class for teaching, the lectures only give theories without
practicing in their teaching, (3) STAIN Palopo: lack of English books as references at
library of STAIN Palopo. By knowing the speaking problems gives contribution to
English students and English lecturers to eliminate or overcome or decrease the
problems in learning speaking skil

No full textTujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk menelaah hubungan lingkungan belajar terhadap prestasi belajar biologi siswa kelas X SMK Negeri 5 Kendari. Jenis penelitian ini adalah penelitian kuantitatif, Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian ex-post facto. Penelitian ex-post facto bertujuan untuk meneliti fenomena yang sudah terjadi dan kemudian mencoba mencari keterkaitannya dengan variabel lain. Sedangkan metode yang digunakan dalam mengupulkan data adalah metode observasi, dokumentasi dan quisioner. Populasi penelitian ini adalah siswa SMK Negeri 5 Kendari sebanyak 39 siswa. Penelitian ini mendapatkan hasil bahwa terdapat hubungan positif dan signifikan antara lingkungan belajar terhadap prestasi belajar biologi siswa kelas X SMK Negeri 5 Kendari tahun ajaran 2019/2020 dilihat dari rhitung = 0,477 Rtabel = 0,316, terdapat hubungan positif dan signifikan antara minat belajar terhadap prestasi belajar biologi siswa kelas X SMK Negeri 5 kendari tahun ajaran 2019/2020 dilihat dari rhitung = 0,650 Rtabel = 0,316, tidak terdapat hubungan positif dan signifikan antara lingkungan belajar terhadap minat belajar biologi siswa kelas X SMK Negeri 5 Kendari tahun ajaran 2019/2020 ditunjukan rhitung = 0,104 Rtabel = 0,316 dan Terdapat hubungan positif dan signifikan antara lingkungan belajar dan minat belajar secara bersama-sama dengan prestasi belajar Biologi siswa kelas X SMK Negeri 5 Kendari tahun ajaran 2019/2020 ditunjukkan rhitung = 0,768 rtabel = 0,316 dan nilai Fhitung = 25,90 Ftabel = 3,25. Hal ini menunjukkan bahwa terciptanya lingkungan belajar yang semakin kondusif dan semakin tinggi minat belajar siswa, maka akan semakin tinggi pula prestasi belajar Biologi yang dicapai siswa.Kata Kunci : Lingkungan Belajar, Minat Belajar, Prestasi Belajar
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe 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
Get PDF“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 PDFWe 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
Get PDFWe 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
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
No full textWe have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
