Motivasjon i skolen : en kvalitativ studie av hva rektor tenker om lærernes motivasjon
I denne avhandlingen
har
jeg
undersøkt
hvordan
rektorene
i
den
videregående
skolen
tenker
om
lærernes
motivasjon
og
i
hvilken
grad
de
er
opptatt
av
å
motivere
lærerne
for
arbeidet
de
skal
gjøre.
Lillemyr
(2007)
sier
at
innsikt
i
motivasjon
er
av
grunnleggende
betydning
for
ledere
i
deres
daglige
ledelse
av
organisasjonen
generelt,
og
i
deres
strategiske
personalledelse
generelt.
På
bakgrunn
av
dette
har
jeg
formulert
følgende
problemstilling:
Hva
tenker
rektor
om
lærernes
motivasjon?
Hensikten
med
prosjektet
var
ikke
at
jeg
skulle
komme
med
noen
fasitsvar.
Målet
var
at
jeg
gjennom
denne
avhandlingen
kunne
få
frem
hvordan
noen
rektorer
utfører
den
delen
av
arbeidet
som
handler
om
å
motivere
lærerne.
I
tillegg
var
det
et
lite
mål
for
meg
å
kunne
bevisstgjøre
rektorene
med
tanke
på
hva
de
kan
gjøre
for
å
opprettholde
motivasjonen
til
lærerne.
Det
er
lærerne
som
er
i
daglig
kontakt
med
de
menneskene
skolen
er
til
for,
nemlig
elevene.
Å
motivere
lærerne
vil
dermed
si
å
inspirere
dem
slik
at
de
i
sin
tur
kan
motivere
elevene
til
læring
og
utvikling.
Jeg
har
i
hovedsak
benyttet
meg
av
Selvbestemmelsesteorien
til
Deci
og
Ryan
som
jeg
presenterer
nærmere
i
kapittel
3.
Den
beskriver
blant
annet
hvordan
tilfredsstillelse
av
de
grunnleggende
psykologiske
behovene
autonomi,
kompetanse
og
tilhørighet
danner
grunnlag
for
indre
motivasjon
(Deci
&
Ryan,
1985).
Teorien
tar
også
for
seg
ulike
former
for
ytre
motivasjon
der
en
søker
å
oppnå
en
form
for
selvbestemt
ytre
motivasjon.
Jeg
har
valgt
å
benytte
meg
av
kvalitativ
metode
i
denne
avhandlingen.
Jeg
har
gjennomført
dybdeintervjuer
med
tre
rektorer
som
arbeider
i
en
videregående
skole
i
Bergensområdet.
Disse
intervjuene
har
hatt
en
varighet
på
1,5
time.
I
arbeidet
med
analyse
har
jeg
benyttet
meg
av
tematisk
analyse
der
jeg
har
brukt
de
fire
kategoriene
motivasjon,
autonomi,
kompetanse
og
tilhørighet
som
utgangspunkt.
Funnene
i
denne
avhandlingen
gjelder
bare
for
de
respektive
skolene
og
kan
ikke
generaliseres
videre.
Hovedfunnene
mine
må
være
at
rektor
ser
på
seg
selv
som
en
støttespiller
og
en
tilrettelegger
for
lærerne.
De
har
god
innsikt
i
hva
som
er
motiverende
og
hva
som
ikke
er
motiverende.
De
trekker
også
frem
utfordringen
ved
at
det
blir
mye
«her
og
nå»
-‐
arbeid
som
tar
fokus.
Dette
fører
nok
til
at
det
blir
mindre
muligheter
til
å
drive
forebyggende
motivasjonsarbeid.
Ellers
er
det
interessant
å
legge
merke
til
hvordan
rektorene
henviser
til
avdelingslederne.
Det
var
faktisk
flere
ganger
der
de
mente
at
jeg
burde
intervjuet
avdelingslederne
og
ikke
dem
selv
for
å
få
svar
på
det
jeg
lurte
på
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
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
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

Author Under Sail The Imagination of Jack London, 1893-1902
In Author Under Sail, Jay Williams offers the first complete literary biography of Jack London as a professional writer engaged in the labor of writing. It examines the authorial imagination in London's work, the use of imagination in both his fiction and nonfiction, and the ways he defined imagination in the creative process in his business dealings with his publishers, editors, and agents. In this first volume of a two-volume biography, Williams traverses the years 1893 to 1902, from London's "Story of a Typhoon" to The People of the Abyss. The Jack London who emerges in the pages of Author Under Sail is a writer whose partnership with publishers, most notably his productive alliance with George Brett of Macmillan, was one of the most formative in American literary history. London pioneered many author models during the heyday of realism and naturalism, blurring the boundaries of these popular genres by focusing on absorption and theatricality and the representation of the seen and unseen. London created an impassioned, sincere, and extremely personal realism unlike that of other American writers of the time. Author Under Sail is a literary tour de force that reveals the full range of London as writer, creative citizen, and entrepreneur at the same time it sheds light on the maverick side of machine-age literature.Intro -- Title Page -- Copyright Page -- Dedication -- Contents -- Acknowledgments -- Introduction -- 1.
