The Implementation of Using Quick Response Codes in Listening Comprehension for Senior High School
Get PDFThe Implementation of Using Quick Response Codes in Listening Comprehension for Senior High School
Get PDFListening is an active activity because their brain is working to catch the information and understand what the speaker is saying. However, teaching listening is not easy. To overcome this problem, mobile learning (m-learning) as a tool of mobile technology can be used for media of learning listening. QR Codes is one of the m-learning media that can be used for it. Meanwhile, the objective of this study are to describe the implementation of using QR Codes in listening comprehension and the student’s response during the implementation of using QR Codes as a media in listening. This study was applied to the tenth grades of Senir High School and cinducted in qualitative research design. The instruments used to collect the data are observation field note and the answer to the questionnaire given to them. Based on the data, the result of this study shows the implementation of using QR Codes in learning is appropriate to increase the students’ willingness to learn listening. Keywords: listening, learning media, mobile learning (m-learning), Quick Response Codes (QR codes) Medengarkan adalah sebuah aktivitas aktif karena otak mereka akan bekerja untuk menangkap informasi yang mereka dengarkan dan memahami apa yang pembicara katakan. Akan tetapi, mengajar mendengarkan itu tidak mudah. Untuk mengatasi masalah ini, pembelajaran seluler (m-learning)sebagai alat teknologi seluler bisa digunakan untuk media belajar mendengaran. QR Codes adalah salah satu media pembelajaran seluler yang bisa digunakan untuk belajar mendengarkan. Sementara itu, tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk mendeskripsikan penerapan penggunaan QR Codes dalam pemahaman mendengarkan dan respon siswa selama penerapan penggunaan QR Codes sebagai media untuk mendengarkan. Penelitian ini diterapkan di kelas X SMA dengan desain penelitian kualitatif. Peneliti melakukan pengamatan dan memberikan kuisioner kepada siswa. Instrumen yang digunakan untuk mengumpulkan data adalah catatan observasi dan jawaban kuisioner yang diberikan kepada siswa. Berdasarkan data yang diperoleh, hasil dari penelitian ini menunjukkan penerapan penggunaan QR Codes dalam pembelajaran mendengarkan sesuai untuk meningkatkan minat belajar mendengarkan siswa.Kata Kunci: mendengarkan, media belajar, pembelajaran seluler (m-learning), Quick Response Codes
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
