    Based on the result of questionnaire spread in junior high school 18 Padang, it was found that teachers still have difficulties to make students active in learning process. Beside that, teachers have not implemented cooperative learning, as a requirement of the 2013 Curriculum, in teaching in the classroom. In addition, students rarely ask questions and express their opinion or ideas in learning process. It shows that students' presentation skill (asking questions and expressing opinion or ideas) is still low. Therefore, there is an alternative solution to solve the problems, which is example non example method. This method is one of cooperative learning. Through cooperative learning, students are provided a situation to present their discussion result. Furthermore, it can also support the implementation of discovery learning model and scientific approach in learning process. The discovery learning and scientific approach are recommended in the 2013 Curriculum. The purpose of the research was to know effect of example non example method in scientific approach and discovery learning model on students' psychomotor competence in learning IPA. It was a quasi-experimental research. It was done in grade VII of junior high school 18 Padang. Instrument used was observation sheet. Technique of data analysis used Mann Whitney U test. The Analysis was done by using SPSS software. The finding shows that there is effect of example non example method on students' psychomotor competence in learning IPA. From the hypothesis testing, it is known that sig. Value < 0,05 or 0,030 <0,05

    Purpose of the research was to know effect of Active Learning in form of scientific approach with assistance of student worksheets based Problem Based Learning to wards students' Biology competence. It was a quasi experimental research by using randomized control posted only design. The population was students in grade X MIPA of SMAN 1 Pasaman registered in academic year 2018/2019. Samples were taken by using Purposive Sampling technique. As a result, X MIPA 4 was as experimental class and X MIPA 3 as control class. Instrument used was psychomotor competence observation sheet. Data analysis was conducted by using Mann Whitney U test. The finding showed that there is a significant difference between students' biology competence in experimental class and control class, in which students' biology competence in experimental class is higher than in control class. Average score of students' biology competence in experimental class is 3.29 (B+) and in control class is 3.15 (B).  So, it can be concluded that Active Learning in form of scientific approach with assistance of student worksheets based Problem Based Learning can improve students' Biology competenc

    The teenage period is the period when an individual leaves childhood and begins to move into adulthood. Teenagers are an age that is vulnerable to changes in their surroundings. Adolescence is a transition from children to adulthood and is also included in its sexual aspects, so in adolescence these children increase the maturity of the reproductive organs. This study discusses the analysis of material for the revision system and discusses it with the behavior of adolescent sections. This research is descriptive research. The population of this study were students of SMA Negeri 1 Padang and MAN 2 Padang in the Academic Year 2017/2018, while the sample of this study was students of class XII who had participated in the testing system. Sampling is done by random sampling technique. The instruments used in this study were questionnaires and interviews. Data analysis in this study used univariate and bivariate analysis. The results showed the relationship between knowledge of the attitudes and behavior of sexy teenagers, good knowledge will produce good attitudes and behaviors

    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

    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

    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
