THE USE OF FRACTAL GEOMETRY IN TILING MOTIF DESIGN
No full textIn this paper I will present the use of fractal geometry to design tile motifs. A fractal is a geometric figure that combines the several characteristics among others: its parts have the same form as the whole, fragmented, and formation by iteration. The concept of fractals has been spread over all fields of sciences, technology, and art. This paper aims to provide an algorithm to creating motifs of tile algorithm for create the tile motif consists of base, iteration, coloration and duplication. In order to help the reader better understand the algorithm, I will present some script using Matlab. We describe a mathematically based algorithm that can fill a spatial region with sequence of randomly placed which may be transformed copies of one motif or several motifs. By using this algorithm, I can produce thousand variety of aesthetically pleasing tile motifs, of which we show a number of examples.The discovery of Fractal Geometry has made it possible to find thousands of beautiful tile motifs automatically so it is very fun. Fractals make it possible to better understand geometric figures with regular structures. By using Fractal geometry, we can play with large simulations without limits through a digital system. Thus, we can involve science in art and culture
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe 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
Full text link“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
Full text linkWe 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
LAPORAN INDIVIDU PRAKTEK PENGALAMAN LAPANGAN (PPL) LOKASI SMA NEGERI 1 MAGELANG
Full text linkPraktik Pengalaman Lapangan (PPL) merupakan salah satu bentuk pendidikan
dengan cara memberikan pengalaman belajar di lapangan secara langsung kepada
mahasiswa untuk mengaplikasikan kemampuan akademis maupun praktis dalam
dunia pendidikan, memperluas wawasan, melatih dan mengembangkan kompetensi
yang diperlukan dalam bidangnya, meningkatkan keterampilan, kemandirian dan
bertanggung jawab dalam mengambil keputusan. Kompetensi mahasiswa sebagai
calon pendidik yang meliputi kompetensi pedagogik, kompetensi kepribadian,
kompetensi profesional, dan kompetensi sosial juga dikembangkan dalam kegiatan
ini. Dengan adanya kegiatan Praktik Pengalaman Lapangan (PPL) ini diharapkan
mahasiswa mempunyai bekal dan pengalaman sebagai calon pendidik yang
berkualitas. Program PPL di SMA Negeri 1 Magelang, dilaksanakan pada tanggal 10
Agustus sampai dengan 12 September 2015.
Sebelum merencanakan dan menyusun program PPL, dilakukan observasi,
pembelajaran di kelas maupun kondisi fisik sekolah. Kegiatan PPL ini berupaya
untuk meningkatkan kemampuan mengajar khususnya mencakup variabel dinamis,
antara lain: pemahaman karakteristik peserta didik, kemampuan merancang
pembelajaran mulai dalam pembuatan PROTA, PROSEM, Analisis KI, KD dan
SILABUS serta RPP, kemampuan mengelola kelas, kemampuan mengembangkan
media, strategi pembelajaran, dan kemampuan evaluasi pembelajaran. PPL sebagai
muara dari seluruh program pendidikan pra-jabatan guru. PPL dilaksanakan secara
terjadwal setelah mahasiswa mendapatkan bekal yang memadai dalam berbagai
bidang yang berkaitan dengan tugasnya sebagai guru yang telah dipelajari secara
bertahap sejak semester awal khususnya melalui pembekalan dan kuliah micro
teaching sebagai modal awal pengalaman mengajar. Melalui PPL, mahasiswa calon
guru diterjunkan ke sekolah untuk mengamati, mengenal dan belajar mempraktikkan
semua kompetensi mengajar yang telah dipelajari di bangku kuliah, sehingga
mendapatkan pengalaman kependidikan secara faktual di lapangan dengan bimbingan
dan arahan dari guru pembimbing, dosen pembimbing dan koordinator PPL di
Sekolah.
Dalam kegiatan PPL di SMA Negeri 1 Magelang, penyusun mendapatkan
kesempatan praktik mengajar di kelas X IIS 1 dan 2, XI IIS 1 dan 2, XII IIS 1 dan 2.
Materi yang diajarkan kepada peserta didik kelas X yaitu materi teori pembentukan
jagat raya, tata surya dan planet bumi serta pengaruh rotasi dan revolusi bumi. Materi
untuk kelas XI yaitu mengenai persebaran Fauna dan Konservasi Flora dan Fauna.
Materi untuk kelas XII yaitu materi Industri (pengertian industri, klasifikasi industri,
teori lokasi industri, aglomerasi industri, kawasan industri, kawasan berikat dan
dampak indsutri) materi kelas XII selanjutnya yaitu pengertian penginderaan jauh,
komponen penginderaan jauh, unsur-unsur interpretasi citra, dan manfaat
penginderaan jauh serta praktikum penginderaan jauh. Dari semua materi kelas
X,XI,XII tersampaikan dengan lancar.
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Full text linkWe 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
