No full textAnalisis kefungsian skala bagi pembinaan rubrik pentaksiran kompetensi amali: Analisis berdasarkan model pengukuran rasch pelbagai facet.
No full textPentaksiran prestasi seperti amali dalam pendidikan teknikal dan vokasional (PTV) sukar diukur kerana subjektif dan boleh menyebabkan bias. Penggunaan skala pemarkahan berbentuk rubrik dikatakan sesuai untuk mengukur kompetensi amali pelajar kerana telah menterjemahkan kriteria kualitatif kepada bentuk kuantitatif secara skala penarafan. Namun begitu pembinaan rubrik bukanlah perkara yang mudah terutamanya dalam menentukan skala penarafan. Oleh itu satu kajian telah dijalankan untuk menentukan kesesuaian skala penarafanyang digunakan dalam pembinaan rubrik kompetensi amali berdasarkan analisis kefungsian skala bersandarkan model Pengukuran Rasch Pelbagai Facet (MFRM). Kajian ini telah dijalankan di tiga buah Kolej Vokasional.Seramai sembilan pemeriksa telah memeriksa kompetensi amali pelajar elektronik dengan menggunakan rubrik empat mata yang telah dihasilkan ke atas 68 orang pelajar. Analisis kefungsian skala menunjukkan taburan frekuensi bagi setiap kategori adalah tidak teratur. Walau bagaimanapun, nilai fit pengukuran menghampiri 1.Selain dari itu juga nilai ambang dan nilai fit masih lagi berada di dalam nilai yang diterima. Secara keseluruhannya skala penarafan yang digunakan di dalam rubrik sesuai dengan sedikit penambahbaikan pada deskriptor yang paling ekstrem
Tahap Pengetahuan Membina Item Ujian dalam Kalangan Pensyarah TVET: Level of Knowledge in Test Item Construction among TVET Lecturers
Get PDFMalay:
Walaupun pembinaan item ujian adalah aspek penting dalam menilai keberkesanan pengajaran dan pembelajaran di institusi pengajian tinggi, masih terdapat pendidik yang kurang menguasai kemahiran membina item ujian yang selaras dengan objektif pembelajaran. Kajian ini bertujuan untuk mengenal pasti tahap pengetahuan membina item ujian dalam kalangan pensyarah di Fakulti Pendidikan Teknikal dan Vokasional (FPTV) serta mengkaji hubungan antara tahap pengetahuan tersebut dengan pengalaman mengajar dan perbezaan dengan kelayakan ikhtisas pendidikan. Kajian ini menggunakan pendekatan kuantitatif dan menggunakan kaedah tinjauan melalui borang soal selidik yang diedarkan kepada pensyarah FPTV. Responden dipilih melalui kaedah persampelan rawak, yang terdiri daripada pensyarah dengan dan tanpa ikhtisas pendidikan. Seramai 37 pensyarah telah menjawab borang soal selidik yang telah diedarkan. Hasil kajian menunjukkan bahawa tahap pengetahuan membina item ujian dalam kalangan pensyarah FPTV adalah tinggi. Walau bagaimanapun, tiada hubungan yang signifikan antara pengalaman mengajar dengan tahap pengetahuan membina item ujian. Selain itu, kajian ini juga mendapati tiada perbezaan yang signifikan dalam tahap pengetahuan membina item ujian antara pensyarah yang mempunyai ikhtisas pendidikan dan yang tidak mempunyai ikhtisas pendidikan. Kesimpulannya, walaupun tahap pengetahuan membina item ujian adalah tinggi dalam kalangan pensyarah FPTV, pengalaman mengajar dan kelayakan ikhtisas pendidikan tidak memainkan peranan yang signifikan. Implikasi daripada kajian ini mencadangkan bahawa latihan berterusan dalam pembinaan item ujian adalah penting untuk semua pensyarah, tanpa mengira latar belakang pendidikan mereka, bagi memastikan kualiti penilaian yang konsisten dan berkesan dalam pengajaran dan pembelajaran.

The construction of test items is an important aspect in evaluating the success of teaching and learning at the higher education level. This study aims to identify the level of knowledge of building test items among lecturers at the Faculty of Technical and Vocational Education (FPTV) as well as examine the relationship between the level of knowledge and teaching experience and differences with educational specialist qualifications. This study uses a quantitative approach and uses a survey method through a questionnaire distributed to FPTV lecturers. Respondents were selected through a random sampling method, consisting of lecturers with and without educational specialization. A total of 37 lecturers have answered the questionnaire that has been distributed. The results of the study show that the level of knowledge of constructing test items among FPTV lecturers is high. However, there is no significant relationship between teaching experience and the level of knowledge of constructing test items. In addition, this study also found no significant difference in the level of knowledge of constructing test items between lecturers who have an education specialization and those who do not have an education specialization. In conclusion, although the level of knowledge of constructing test items is high among FPTV lecturers, teaching experience and educational qualifications do not play a significant role. Implications from this study suggest that ongoing training in the construction of test items is important for all lecturers, regardless of their educational background, to ensure consistent and effective assessment quality in teaching and learning
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
Rubric in Vocational Education
Get PDFRubric is a very important tool for teachers and students for a variety of purposes. Teachers use the rubric for evaluating student work while students use rubrics for self-assessment. Therefore, this paper was emphasized scoring rubric as a scoring tool for teachers in an environment of Competency Based Education and Training (CBET) in Malaysia Vocational College. A total of three teachers in the fields of electrical and electronics engineering were interviewed to identify how the use of rubrics practiced since vocational transformation implemented in 2012.
