No full textThis study aimed to describe the improvement of the students’ achievement in
speaking by Role Playing at Drama lesson at English department at Faculty of Teacher
Training and Education University of Muhammadiyah Sumatera Utara. The specific aim was
how using to apply role play in studying drama and how the role play method can improve the
students’ achievement in speaking. This research was used an action research that used two
cycles. The subject of the study was 42 students at Academic 2015 – 2016 from English
Department. The instrument of research was speaking test, questioners and observation to
collect the data. Technique for collecting data was descriptive qualitative and quantitative.
Technique for analyzing data was used descriptive which describe the finding of research which
used some tables, frequency which was benefit to describe the achievements of the students in
speaking from pre-test, and cycle 1 up to cycle 2. The finding of research was the students’
achievement in speaking were good by using Role playing which conducted one semester. Based
on the data, the students’ achievements got improvement in every cycle. The students got A was
23.8 %, B/A and B 76, 1 % and there were not students got C/B and D and E. It meant the
indicators of this research could achieve by using Role playing at drama lesson when we
compared with conventional method. The study by using role playing is more interested than
conventional method
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
THE INTEGRATED LEARNING MODEL TYPE OF “CONNECTED” IN INCREASING THE STUDENTS’ LEARNING CREATIVITY AND ABILITY
No full textThis study aims to: 1) Analyze the application of integrated learning model of type connected in reminding creativity and students' learning ability; 2) Analyze student response after application of connected learning model; 3) Evaluate students' creativity and learning ability after applied learning model. This research was conducted at University of Muhammadiyah Sumatera Utara. The study was conducted in two years. The first year starts from November 2016 to July 2017 and continues the second year beginning in September 2017 until May 2018. Data are collected from observations and questionnaires. Data analysis is done by finding mean, mastery, ability and creativity of students. The results showed that integrated learning method type connected can increase creativity, generate positive responses to learning and improve student learning abilit

Get PDFDispelling 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
