    Elemental : from the VBC to BSU and the USA

    No full text
    Elemental is a sexual assault protection program which was developed through a Virginia B. Ball Center for Creative Inquiry project in Spring 2011. It is a multimedia self-¬defense training program based on social science, student-specific research and modern martial arts. It is currently taught each semester at Ball State University by Dr. Chad Menning, Dr. Mellisa Holtzman and a group of student volunteers. Elemental will soon begin certifying instructors at other universities to be able to reach even more student participants. This strategic communications plan first outlines ways for Elemental to promote its program to more students at Ball State University, which serves as a prototype for other schools' implementation. The second part of this plan illustrates a tiered approach to reach university faculty members at a regional and then a national level.Thesis (B.?.)Honors Colleg

    This study aims to determine the ability to write review texts for the short film "Lima Detik" by Ja'far Ash by grade VIII students of SMP Pancasila Pal IX Kubu Raya Regency based on aspects of structure, language, and writing of EBI. This research uses descriptive research methods with quantitative research forms. Data collection was carried out through a test of writing the review text of the short film "Five Seconds" by Ja'far Ash. The results of this study showed that the ability to write student review texts was classified into the good category, with an average score of 71,33. The ability to write review texts based on structural aspects obtained an average score of 68,75 with sufficient categories, based on linguistic aspects obtained an average score of 97,91 with very good categories, and based on the writing of EBI obtained an average score of 58,33 with sufficient category. Based on the distribution table, the percentage of the value of the ability to write review text shows the very good category (16,67%), good category (54,17%), sufficient category (16,67%), and less category (12,5%). Through this research, it is hoped that teachers can Indonesian find out the ability of students, especially in writing review texts. After knowing the abilities of students, teachers can further improve the effectiveness of learning to write review text

    The occurrence of pests on lemon balm (Mellisa officinalis) and garden sage (Salvia officinalis)

    Production of medicinal plants is accompanied by many problems, out of which some are overcome. Problems in medicinal plant production, including the production of sage and lemon balm that cannot be avoided are pathogens, the presence of insects and weeds. During the summer of 2003 and 2004, the occurrence of animal pests and pathogens was investigated in the medicinal plants lemon balm (Mellisa officinalis) and garden sage (Salvia officinalis). The pathogens Alternaria alternata and Fusarium moniliforme and the insects Eupterix atropunctata and Empoasca pteridis (Homoptera, Cicadelidae) were identified as the cause of various damages to medicinal plants

    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
