Are Universities Teaching what they should be teaching? Are we teaching the right thing?
The Opinion Page in the last issue of JIRSEA discussed how we, particularly those in Malaysia where Prof. Dr Nirwan are teaching now, should be teaching right. Hence Prof. Dr Nirwan discussed at some length the importance of Quality to be part of the university teachers’ toolkit. In this edition, as a sort of continuation of the approach to university teaching, Prof. Dr Nirwan ask the question whether we are teaching the right thing. Teaching things right, in his opinion should always be accompanied by the question, are we teaching the right things
PENGARUH DISKUSI KELOMPOK TENTANG PENANGGULANGAN FILARIASIS TERHADAP PERUBAHAN PERILAKU KELUARGA DI KABUPATEN PIDIE
Kasus filariasis di Kabupaten Pidie cukup tinggi dan cenderung meningkat, dimana pada tahun 2014 mencapai 86 kasus dan meningkat pada tahun 2015 menjadi 95 kasus. Kegiatan promosi kesehatan dalam bentuk penyuluhan yang dilakukan belum memberikan dampak yang signifikan terhadap penanggulangan penyakit filariasis. Bentuk lain dari promosi kesehatan yang dapat dilakukan adalah diskusi kelompok. Tujuan penelitian adalah untuk Mengetahui pengaruh diskusi kelompok pada keluarga terhadap perubahan perilaku tentang penanggulangan filariasis. Desain penelitian yang digunakan adalah pre experiment one group pre test post test design. Teknik sampling secara total populasi sehingga didapatkan jumlah sampel sebanyak 77 keluarga (18 keluarga tidak bersedia menjadi sampel). Pengumpulan data dengan menggunakan kuesioner pada saat sesi pre test dan post test. Data dianalisa secara univariat dan bivariat. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa diskusi kelompok efektif untuk meningkatkan pengetahuan (P=0,0001), sikap (P=0,0001) dan tindakan (P=0,0001) keluarga dalam penanggulangan filariasis. Diskusi kelompok terbukti dapat meningkatkan perilaku keluarga dalam penanggulangan filariasis.Kata Kunci : Diskusi Kelompok, Keluarga, Filariasis.ABSTRACTFilariasis cases in Pidie District was high and tend to increase, where in 2014 about 86 cases and increased in 2015 to 95 cases.

Satu Setengah Mata-mata
Satu setengah mata-mata merupakan merangkum sepilihan tulisan Nirwan Dewanto. Isinya bergerak bebas diantara seni rupa dan sastra, antara fiksi dan non-fiksi, antara antropologi dan catatan autobiografis, antara telaah seni dan nalar puitik, dan antara pembacaan dekat dan jauh. Melalui berbagai jalan keterlibatannya, pengarang berhujah bahwa seni rupa bukan sekadar apa yang dapat dipandang, melainkan juga apa yang nyaman diciptakan kemabali terus menerus dalam imajinasi. Seni rupa mengungkai ranah-ranah gelap yang dilewatkan oleh ilmu-pengetahuan. Buku ini dibagi dalam bagian: prolog, satu, dua, tiga, empat, dan epilog. Bagian prolog berisi uraian tentang seni rupa yang telah mengajarinya memperkarakan rupa. Bagian satu menuliskan buah-buah impresionistik yang dipetik dari pengalaman penulis. Bagian dua menuliskan kipraknya menyelia sejumlah pameran tunggal. Bagiankeempat adalah bagian dari upaya mengantarkan sejumlah pameran. Tulisan-tulisan dalam buku ini hanya sebagian kecil dari apa yang pernah ditulis tentang seni rupa dan berbagai gejala rupa.Kata kunci: seni rupa, Mooi Indie, lukisa
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
