    This article aims to understand the concept of holistic education for elementary school children according to John Dewey's theory of social reconstruction. Many parents think that education is the responsibility of the teacher at school so that it makes parents often off responsibility. John Dewey argues that education requires communication because humans are social creatures. Social learning is based on behavior in which children learn new things by observing other people. This research method is carried out by literature study of journals and other scientific works that have relevance to holistic education as the main source of research. The results of this study explain that holistic education is an effort to maintain overall personal development including: intellectual-emotional, physical-social, aesthetic and spiritual; According to John Dewey's theory of Social Reconstruction, holistic education for elementary school children must be supported by all elements, both from school, family and society in personality development in order to form positive personalities in children. The contribution of this research is to provide an understanding for educators, parents and the community about the function of holistic education and to clarify their respective roles

    Epistemology of Islamic Education in the Qur'an and Its Urgency in the Development of Islamic Education

    This paper seeks to shed light on the debate of scientists about the nature of knowledge, its character and sources. The Qur'an is a source of epistemology whose truth cannot be doubted within Islamic tradition. Tracing the function and several verses thematically by analyzing them within the framework of philosophical interpretation, the researchers found that the Qur'an very intensely calls for thinking, contemplating, conducting research and, of course, reading. This research aims to discover in depth the epistemology of Islamic education in the Qur'an and its urgency in the development of Islamic education. This research took a qualitative approach that employed document analysis to obtain data. The results of this study are: (1) Western epistemology consists of rationalism and empiricism schools, while Islamic epistemology consists of bayani schools, burhani schools and 'irfani schools; (2) The approach method in Islamic education's epistemology in the Qur'an consists of rational, intuitive, dialogic, comparative, criticism and 'ibrah methods; (3) The urgency of Islamic education's epistemology in the development of education is to reform Islamic education without eliminating Islamic idealism

    Freire's Praxis, Democracy and Critical Consciousness in Islamic Education

    Get PDF
    Critical philosophy in education assumes that students are so naive and unable to read social reality critically, and this also happens in Islamic education. Paulo Freire tries to promote the importance of student-centred education, active participation and critical consciousness in education. This study aims to: (1) explore Freire's ideas about praxis; (2) explore Freire's thoughts on democracy; (3) explore Freire's thinking about critical consciousness; (4) integrate the concepts of praxis, democracy and critical consciousness in Islamic education. This is literature research which involves review of literature that is relevant to Freire's concepts and their application in Islamic education. The findings of this study are: (1) Praxis allows students to link Islamic knowledge and values with concrete actions in life; (2) Democracy promotes student participation in decision-making and open dialogue, enabling them to actively contribute to learning; (3) Critical consciousness helps students understand the structure of society and analyze their understanding of Islamic teachings critically; (4) The concepts of praxis, democracy and critical consciousness in Islamic education provides opportunities for students to integrate religious teachings with their life experiences, understand the social context and develop a critical understanding of Islam

    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

    Get PDF
    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

    Get PDF
    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
