Penguatan kapasitas masyarakat melalui penerapan model koperasi berkelanjutan
Kegiatan Pengabdian Kepada Masyarakat ini bertujuan untuk meningkatkan literasi koperasi, memperkuat kapasitas pengelolaan, dan mendorong kemandirian ekonomi masyarakat melalui penguatan peran Credit Union Keling Kumang sebagai model koperasi berbasis anggota. Metode yang digunakan adalah Participatory Action Research (PAR) dengan teknik diskusi interaktif, tanya jawab terarah, dan simulasi praktik. Pendekatan ini dipilih karena mampu melibatkan peserta secara aktif dalam menganalisis masalah, merumuskan solusi, dan mempraktikkan keterampilan pengelolaan koperasi sesuai kebutuhan lokal. Kegiatan diikuti oleh 35 peserta yang terdiri dari pengurus dan anggota koperasi. Hasil evaluasi menunjukkan peningkatan signifikan pada tiga dimensi capaian: pengetahuan peserta mengenai prinsip koperasi meningkat dari 34% menjadi 82%, motivasi menabung secara rutin naik dari 28% menjadi 76%, serta jumlah anggota baru Credit Union bertambah 21% dalam tiga minggu pasca kegiatan. Selain itu, rata-rata simpanan anggota meningkat sebesar 15%, dan partisipasi anak usia sekolah di wilayah sasaran naik dari 87% menjadi 94%. Dampak jangka panjang dari program ini diproyeksikan mencakup terbentuknya kebiasaan menabung yang konsisten, tata kelola koperasi yang lebih profesional, dan adopsi teknologi digital untuk memperluas layanan. Model kegiatan ini berpotensi direplikasi di wilayah lain dengan penyesuaian konteks lokal, khususnya pada daerah dengan tingkat literasi koperasi yang rendah. Konsep spin-out, yaitu pengembangan unit usaha baru berbasis koperasi, diperkenalkan sebagai strategi diversifikasi usaha yang dapat memperkuat ketahanan ekonomi anggota. Kegiatan ini menunjukkan bahwa kombinasi pendekatan partisipatif, pembelajaran berbasis pengalaman, dan dukungan kelembagaan dapat menghasilkan perubahan nyata dalam literasi, sikap, dan keterampilan anggota koperasi, sekaligus memberikan landasan bagi pemberdayaan ekonomi masyarakat secara berkelanjutan

Tantangan Dan Peluang Credit Union Sebagai Penguat Ketahanan Masyarakat
This article will explain the dynamics of the role of credit unions (CU) in community empowerment in the context of social resilience. Keling Kumang Credit Union in West Kalimantan was used as a case study to see the empowerment efforts carried out, because CU places greater emphasis on human empowerment. Empowerment or financial literacy is just a means. Through qualitative research based on analysis of social media and documents, the social role of CUs will be examined. By using the observations of Peter Davis as a cooperative \u27guru\u27, the challenges and opportunities of a credit union are also explained. Peter Davis\u27 reflection points will be applied in the context of CUs in West Kalimantan in general and for CU Keling Kumang in particular. With the SWOT method, namely looking at strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and challenges, several reflective conclusions will be drawn. Apart from that, proposals and suggestions were submitted, so that in the future CU can continue to play a role in accordance with its mission, namely building community welfare in a broad sense
Analisis Pusat-pusat Pertumbuhan Ekonomi di Kabupaten Sekadau Provinsi Kalimantan Barat
A regional development indeed, is aimed at lifting the quality of lives of the society within the region through integrated and proper of sectors and spatial development. An effective and efficient development planning should take into account macro, sectoral and regional development planning harmoniously. At the same time, a good economic development planning will determine qualified economic growth, reducing poverty, creating more jobs and reducing inter region disparities. This is the context of this thesis research. This research analyzed sub-district basis economic growth centers in Sekadau District of West Kalimantan through sub district based. As a new district, Sekadau District is hoped to bring significant impacts especially on public service sector and better welfare for every member of society. To reach the goal, economic development is one of the strategies to be done. Through creating economic growth centers in the region, will enhance the economic growth of the hinterlands. Sekadau district consists of 7 sub districts. The sub districts are Nanga Mahap, Nanga Taman, Sekadau Hulu, Sekadau Hilir, Belitang Hilir, Belitang andn Belitang Hulu. The main data analyzed in this research are economic, social and government facilities in every sub district. The analysis tools applied are Scalogram, Geographic Information System (GIS) and Interaction Analysis. The findings of the research show that Sekadau Hilir is the main economic growth center of Sekadau. The total numbers of economic, social and government facilities are 738. It is the first economic order of Sekadau. In the Southern part, Nanga Taman is the economic growth center within the area with 257 facilities. While in the Northern part, the growth center is Belitang Hilir with 223 facilities. Because of central and Strategic position of Sekadau Hilir, other sub districts consequently, are the hinterlands of Sekadau Hilir. Through interaction analysis, it is known that Sekadau Hilir is the main center of interaction of people, goods and services. It is understandable, Sekadau Hilir, especially Sekadau Town, is the capital town of Sekadau district. The people from all sub districts come to Sekadau town mainly for shopping, education, health care, and government business. Even though, from the research finding, it is clearly founded that there are economic disparities among three main zones within the district. Center area, Sekadau Hilir, is the most provided by economic, social and government facilities more than three sub districts in the South. The worse is three sub districts in the North, less facilities provided compared with those in the South. The lagging zone of economic, social and government facilities in the district is in the North.**
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
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
