    Ma Ma Ma Mad

    No full text
    Ma Ma Ma Mad is an autobiographical work, written and performed by Singaporean-Australian theatre maker Merlynn Tong. This production, presented at the Brisbane Powerhouse in December 2015, was a multi-genre work incorporating aspects of Butoh, physical theatre, cabaret and contemporary monologue. More than an experiment in mixed performative forms, however, this particular production was also an exercise in inter-cultural collaboration as well as gender in (and of) performance. Heavily influenced by the creator's experiences growing up in urban Southeast Asia, the director's specialisation in contemporary Australian theatre and experience telling uniquely Australian stories worked to manipulate the form in an endeavour to succinctly speak to local audiences, without pandering to entrenched stereotypes or diluting the underlying Chinese-Singaporean themes. The success of this production was also somewhat of a personal challenge for the creatives, after being told by some of Brisbane's most influential theatre venues and festivals that they would rather not support the work because a) it was a one woman show, and b) it was a one woman show about an Asian woman; and therefore would not sell well. One very influential local producer even said that he already had a one-woman show about an Asian person programmed, so he couldn't possibly program another. Operating in such a biased and out-of-touch artistic environment was seen as an easy challenge for the artists involved, which resulted in a highly successful and critically acclaimed sell-out run of Ma Ma Ma Mad, followed by offers to tour the work nationally and internationally. As such, this production also stands as a practical example of the ingrained and patriarchal structures of the Australian arts scene, and how art can work to break down the very barriers that it has helped to construct through a lack of vision and diversity amongst its leaders

    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

    Skripsi dengan judul “Strategi Guru Akidah Akhlaq dalam Meningkatkan Religiusitas Peserta Didik di MA Ma`arif Udanawu Blitar” ini ditulis oleh Khuriatun Nadhifah, NIM 12201183254, Jurusan Pendidikan Agama Islam (PAI), Fakultas Tarbiyah dan Ilmu Keguruan (FTIK), Universitas Islam Negeri Sayyid Ali Rahmatullah Tulungagung, 2022, atas bimbingan Muhammad Dwi toriyono, M.Pd. Kata Kunci : Strategi Guru Akidah Akhlaq, Religiusitas Penelitian ini dilatar belakangi adanya fenomena yaitu, banyaknya siswa yang kurang mementingkan kegiatan religiusitas dan kurang memahami peningkatan kediplinan sholat berjamaah. Peningkatan kedisiplinan dapat dilakukan melalui metode pembiasaan. Hal ini dilakukan guru agar siswa mempunyai kesadaran diri dan terbiasa untuk melaksanakan kegiatan wajib tersebut. Sebagaimana yang dilakukan Guru Akidah Akhlaq di MA Ma`arif Udanawu Blitar ini dengan membiasakan siswa-siswinya dengan sholat dhuhur berjamaah. Focus peneliti dalam penulisan skripsi ini adalah (1) Bagaimana Perencaaan Guru Akidah Akhlaq dalam Meningkatkan Religiusitas Peserta Didik di MA Ma`arif Udanawu Blitar? (2) Bagaimana Pelaksanaan Guru Akidah Akhlaq dalam Meningkatkan Religiusitas Peserta Didik di MA Ma`arif Udanawu Blitar? (3) Bagaimana Evaluasi Guru Akidah Akhlaq dalam Meningkatkan Religiusitas Peserta Didik di MA Ma`arif Udanawu Blitar? Tujuan penelitian ini yaitu (1) untuk mendeskripsikan Perencaaan Guru Akidah Akhlaq dalam Meningkatkan Religiusitas Peserta Didik di MA Ma`arif Udanawu Blitar. (2) untuk mendeskripsikan Pelaksanaan Guru Akidah Akhlaq dalam Meningkatkan Religiusitas Peserta Didik di MA Ma`arif Udanawu Blitar (3) untuk mendeskripsikan Evaluasi Guru Akidah Akhlaq dalam Meningkatkan Religiusitas Peserta Didik di MA Ma`arif Udanawu Blitar? Dalam penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dengan jenis deskriptif. Sumber datanya yaitu guru akidah akhlaq, kepala sekolah dan siswa. Pengumpulan data dilakukan dengan menggunakan teknik observasi, wawancara dan dokumentasi. Analisis data dimulai dari reduksi data, penyajian data dan penarikan kesimpulan. Sedangkan pengecekan keabsahan data menggunakan perpanjangan keikutsertaan dan triangulasi. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa (1) perencanaan guru akidah akhlaq dalam meningkatkan religiusitas peserta didik yaitu dengan adanya pemetaan peserta didik yang masih minim dasar ilmu ubudiyah, motivasi guru, dan konsisten dalam menerapkan peraturan. (2) Pelaksanaan guru akidah akhlaq dalam meningkatkan religiusitas peserta didik yakni melalui metode pembiasaan yang dilakukan berulang. Metode hukuman yang bersifat mendidik agar memberi efek jera terhadap siswa. Dan pelaksanaan madikarama (madrasah diniyah kalangan remaja) bagi siswa yang minim dasar ilmu ubudiyah. (3) Evaluasi guru akidah akhlaq dalam meningkatkan religiusitas peserta didik yakni dengan pengawasan,melakukan pengamatan secara langsung setiap hari terhadap kegiatan-kegiatan yang dilakukan. Seperti pengawasan dari segi kehadiran, kesungguhan melaksanakan, dan pengawasan terhadap hasil dari pembiasaan yang dilakukan. Sehingga strategi yang dilakukan oleh guru akidah akhlaq berjalan secara optimal sesuai dengan perencanaan

    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
