No full textS.1887-1897In diesem Beitrag stellt sich Juniorprofessorin Sulamith C. Frerich von der Ruhr-Universität Bochum (RUB) vor. Sie gibt Einblick in aktuelle Forschungsfragen und zeigt, wie sie universitäre Aufgaben mit außeruniversitärer Forschung verbindet. Fachlich berichtet sie aus Kunststoffcharakterisierung und -verarbeitung sowie numerischer Simulation und Prozessoptimierung. Für die anwendungsnahe Kompositherstellung aus Polymeren und Wirkstoffen nennt sie zwei Beispiele und beschreibt, wie sie den Transfer gestaltet. Zusätzlich erläutert sie, wie Online-Lehre in der Verfahrenstechnik funktioniert.In this article, junior professor Sulamith C. Frerich from the Ruhr University Bochum (RUB) introduces herself. She provides insight into current research issues and shows how she combines university tasks with non-university research. She reports from plastics characterization and processing as well as numerical simulation and process optimization. She gives two examples for application-oriented composite production from polymers and active ingredients and describes how she designs the transfer. In addition, she explains how online teaching works in process engineering.93Nr.1

Diffusive author(s), cohesive author: Analysis of S/N (1994)
No full textThis study indicates the ways in which various aspects of the author(s) are brought forth in Dumb type’s performance art, the S/N production. Previous research has suggested a non-hierarchical organization of Dumb type and the absence of a “privileged author” in Dumb type’s collaborative work, S/N. However, the results that I have investigated from member’s interviews on the creative process of S/N along with my analysis of the recorded images of S/N, indicate a different aspect of the author(s). First, S/N was created through, so to speak, the collective ideas of the members of Dumb type. Further, S/N has at least nine quotations from previous performances, installations, and printed writings, besides the work-in-progress technique. Explicating one of the “author functions” as given by Michel Foucault, each text has plural subjects of the author. However, it has been revealed from members’ interviews that Teiji Furuhashi had a decision-making role in selecting the members’ ideas within the performance. Since then, S/N has had plural subjects of creation; however, Furuhashi is one of the subjects of creation along with the “privileged author.” S/N has plural authors (diffusive authors) yet at the same time, it has a “privileged author,” Teiji Furuhashi (cohesive author)
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
No full textThe 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
Implementation of International Master’s Programmes in Engineering Education in Germany
No full text[EN] This paper introduces the framework conditions of the internationalization
process of the higher education system in Germany and gives an overview of
the implementation of international Master’s programmes in engineering
education and the characteristics of student migrants in this field of studies.
Developments on the macro-level clearly indicate political interest to attract
more international students for German universities and the technical
disciplines in Germany are already very successful in this endeavour. With a
special focus on higher education reforms in engineering, this paper is based
on an investigation directed at the meso-level, the motivations and strategies
at the level of university and faculties for establishing such international
study programmes. The results of a qualitative study will be presented that
was conducted at the engineering faculties of the Ruhr-Universität in
Bochum between December 2014 and August 2015. With the overall aim of
investigating in how far the decisions made on university and faculty levels
are related to the general political endeavors to attract international talent,
the different stakeholders’ interests and implementation strategies such as
language policy were consideredStrenger, N.; Frerich, S. (2016). Implementation of International Master’s Programmes in Engineering Education in Germany. En 2nd.

Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
No full textWe 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

We examined students in a college course who learned about one scholar's ideas through watching an audiovisual TV interview (i.e., visible author format) and about another scholar's ideas through reading a formal text description (i.e., invisible author format). For the invisible author, native language speakers scored significantly higher than the non-native language speakers on a corresponding exam question (i.e., a cognitive measure), generated more words on the exam question (i.e., a motivational measure), and mentioned the author's name more often in answering the exam question (i.e., an affective measure). For the visible author, the groups did not differ on any of these measures. These findings provide evidence for the idea that making the author visible through audiovisual TV interviews can eliminate the learning gap between native and non-native language speakers. 3 Universities around the world serve students who are non-native speakers of th
Digital scriptum – novel approach of student experiment preparation
No full text[EN] In mechanical engineering, students pass several seminars aiming at selfconducted experiments and trials. In the ELLI project (Excellent Teaching and Learning in Engineering Science), different virtual and remote laboratories have been installed within the three engineering departments at the Ruhr-University Bochum. The preparation in a classic experiment is usually done with a classic paper print scriptum. This is not suitable for a virtual or remote laboratory, since, amongst others, no supervision is provided. Due to that, a classic scriptum has been transferred in a digital scriptum based on the Open Source software “Adapt Learning” and has been extended by various implemented digital items. This contribution is discussing preliminary student experiences and identified prospective improvements. It turns out that the digital scriptum is suitable for the preparation of virtual and remote laboratories but can be an excellent alternative to the classic printout scriptum in a student experiment in a hands on laboratory as well.http://ocs.editorial.upv.es/index.php/HEAD/HEAD18Roß, N.; Kuska, R.; Rieth, I.; Frerich, S.
