    The purpose of this research was to know whether or not there was an effect of video on speaking ability of the second year students of SMUN I Puri Mojokerto in the 2001/2002 academic year. This was an experimental research. The population was taken by using cluster random sampling. The samples consisted of two classes, the experimental class and the control class, in which each class consisted of 40 students

    The Effect of Realia Strategy and Self-Regulated Learning (SRl) Tto The English Learning Result

    The focus of this study was to determine whether any interactions between Realia Strategy and Self-Regulated Learning (SRL)  to the English learning result of the seventh grade students in SMPN 1 & 2 Dlanggu Mojokerto. The research approach used in this study was a quantitative. The research population was the seventh grade students in SMPN 1 & 2 Dlanggu Mojokerto. The number of the respondents who took part in this research was 128. The findings revealed that the majority of the respondents were the seventh grade students and both genders were almost equally represented in the sample. Test and questionnaire were conducted with 128 respondents using a prepared structured test and questionnaire schedule. The test and questionnaire was managed for easy analysis and analysed using SPSS computer program. Based on the data analysis and hypothesis verification, it can be concluded that there are any differences of  the English learning result between a group of students who is given a treatment using Realia Strategy  and a group of students who is given a treatment using Display Strategy, between a group of students who has High Self-Regulated Learning (SRL) and Low Self-Regulated Learning (SRL), and there are any interactions between Realia Strategy and Self-Regulated Learning (SRL)  to the English learning result of the seventh grade students in SMPN 1 & 2 Dlanggu Mojokerto. It can be said that there is significant interaction of Realia Strategy and Self-Regulated Learning (SRL) to the English Learning Result of the Seventh Grade Students in SMPN 1& 2 Dlanggu Mojokerto. According to the findings of the research, Realia strategy and Self-Regulated Learning (SRL) are able to be implemented in classroom to improve students’ English learning result. Keywords: Realia strategy, Self-Regulated Learning (SRL)

    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

    Full text link
    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

    Full text link
    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

    No full text
    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
