    Basically the task of teachers to educate, teach, train and evaluate students, so that learners can become human beings who can carry out life in harmony with his nature as human beings. related to the task of teachers in evaluating students then teachers should have the skills to teach. It is therefore necessary for the principal\u27s role to motivate teachers to improve their performance and objectives to help teachers clearly see the purpose of education and to achieve the educational goals by fostering and developing better teaching methods and procedures. The purpose of this research is to improve teacher competence in the use of ICT, so as to improve teacher achievement and performance in competing in this globalization world. So with the use of ICT teachers are able to access and create lesson material that is better and interesting so siswapun will have better learning achievement also especially at SD Negeri 08 Pasar Surantih. The research will be applied is the School Action Research (PTS) is a type of research conducted by the principal and school supervisor. As Mulyasa pointed out that the School Action Research is an effort to improve the performance of the education system and improve school management to be productive, effective and efficient. this type of research needs to be introduced to principals and school supervisors through education and training (PTS) training. In the implementation of the PTS training, it is expected that the principal and school supervisor can: (1) understand the PTS as part of scientific research, (2) understand the meaning of private universities, (3) understand the compilation of the PTS proposal, (4) carry out and report the results of PTS conducted. According to Directorate of Tendik (2008) Step - Step PTS consists of four stages, yaituplanning (Plan), action (action), observation (observation) and reflection (reflection). The spiral cycle of the PTS stages can be as follows: The preliminary plan, prior to conducting the research the researcher formulates the problem formulation, the objectives and the action plan, including the research instrument and learning device 2. The action is done after the draft is prepared. Action is part of what will be done in Action Research School in research 3. Observation done when the teacher in bombing using a computer. The performance of teachers is strongly influenced by several factors, among others: firstly personality personality and high dedication determine the success of teachers in carrying out their duties as reflected in their attitude and actions in fostering and guiding learners. the two factors of professional development of teachers is very important because the task and its role not only provide information science but to form attitudes and souls that can survive in the era of hyperkompetition; the three factors of teaching ability of teachers is a reflection of the mastery of teachers on their competence; the four relationships and communication factors that occur in the work environment provide support for the smooth task of teachers in schools; the five factors of relationships with the community, the role of teachers in supporting school relations activities with the community can improve the understanding of the community about the goals and targets that the school wants to realize; the six disciplinary factors, A work will reap the rewards that satisfy all parties if the teacher is able to obey the specified signs through the application of discipline in carrying out their duties; the seven factors of the welfare level, provide appropriate incentives as a means of improving the welfare of teachers in order to prevent teachers from doing truancy activities by seeking additional outside to meet the needs of life; and the eight conducive working climate factors provide hope for teachers to work more calmly in line with school goals.   &nbsp

    History is one of the things that must be preserved especially with the various tribes in Indonesia making this country rich in history. For example the Batak tribe, there are many things that can be used as history such as traditional clothing, musical instruments and traditional houses. In order for the cultural heritage not to be lost due to time, it is necessary to preserve it so that it will be known the history of the Toba Bat to new generations that are still young. The development of the application of the introduction of Batak Toba culture using Augmented Realiy aims to introduce the Toba Batak culture to the people of Indonesia. With this application, it is expected to be able to increase people's curiosity about Toba Batak culture and raise awareness to love Batak culture more. Utilization of Vuforia SDK in development This application is able to display augmented objects in the form of 3D objects. Based on the results of testing using this augmented reality, it can be concluded that to get better results in displaying 3D animation, the minimum distance is 10 cm from the marked location point, the application of the introduction of toba batak culture can be used indoors and outside rooms with the provision of light intensity above one lux, the application cannot display 3D animation models when there is no light

    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

    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

    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

    We 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
