M Akbar Rafli (2023): Penggunaan Metode Presentasi Pecha Kucha Terhadap Kemampuan Berbicara Siswa di MAN 3 Pekanbaru.
Berdasarkan studi pendahuluan yang dilakukan peneliti, ditemukan beberapa siswa di MAN 3 Pekanbaru mengalami kesulitan dalam berbicara bahasa Inggris. Misalnya mereka kekurangan kosa kata bahasa Inggris dan kesulitan untuk mengucapkan kata-kata. Tujuan dari penelitian ini untuk mengetahui kemampuan berbicara siswa yang diajar dengan menggunakan presentasi pecha kucha dan untuk menyelidiki apakah ada perbedaan yang signifikan antara kemampuan berbicara siswa yang diajar dengan menggunakan presentasi pecha kucha dan tanpa menggunakan presentasi pecha kucha. Dalam penelitian ini, desain penelitian adalah penelitian pra-eksperimental. Populasi penelitian ini adalah siswa kelas X MAN 3 Pekanbaru tahun ajaran 2022/2023. Jumlah keseluruhan populasi adalah 285 siswa. Sampel peneliti diambil dari satu kelas X MIA 2 yang berjumlah 35 siswa sebagai sampel. Dalam penelitian ini, peneliti menggunakan pre-test dan post-test untuk mengumpulkan data untuk mengetahui kemampuan berbicara siswa. Teknik analisis data adalah independent sample T-test melalui SPSS versi 23. Peneliti menemukan bahwa nilai sig (2-tailed) adalah 0,000. Dapat dinyatakan bahwa 0,000 < 0,05. Artinya hipotesis nol (Ho) ditolak, sedangkan hipotesis alternatif (Ha) diterima. Dengan kata lain, ada perbedaan yang signifikan antara kemampuan berbicara siswa sebelum dan sesudah diajar menggunakan pecha kucha MAN 3 Pekanbaru
Breaking Queer Silences, Building Queer Archives, and Claiming Queer Indigenous P’urhépecha Methodologies
No full textIn this essay, I recover queer Indigenous P’urhépecha histories in Michoacán, México, by claiming queer P’urhépecha research methods. To do so, I introduce the Indigenous methodology of talking-while-walking, which refers to how I learned to connect with P’urhépecha knowledge and traditions through the voice of my P’urhépecha grandfather. Since the colonial system eradicated queer histories from my land, I seek historical narratives about queer people in Michoacán from any source available to me, including oral histories, archives, information in the media, and interviews. I argue that queer P’urhépecha histories are unstable and non-linear, and that P’urhépecha bodies have been hunted and their histories distorted, provoking fear and false speculations about queerness among the collective. I also examine the attachment of P’urhépecha people to gender binary traditions and heteronormativity and how the narratives behind these practices relate to colonial violence and the persecution of queer P’urhépechas. Thus, I demonstrate how P’urhépecha queerness has been marginalized and simultaneously displaced from the archival records while I claim queer P’urhépecha histories and build queer P’urhépecha archives. Finally, I propose a sensitive and personal approach to queer histories guided by the voices of my queer P’urhépecha interlocutors and the histories that my P’urhépecha abuelo passed to me

Effects of pecha kucha presentation pedagogy on nursing students’ presentation skills: a quasi-experimental study in Tanzania
No full textAbstract Introduction Ineffective and non-interactive learning among nursing students limits opportunities for students’ classroom presentation skills, creativity, and innovation upon completion of their classroom learning activities. Pecha Kucha presentation is the new promising pedagogy that engages students in learning and improves students’ speaking skills and other survival skills. It involves the use of 20 slides, each covering 20 seconds of its presentation. The current study examined the effect of Pecha Kucha’s presentation pedagogy on presentation skills among nursing students in Tanzania. Objectives The aim of this study was to establish comparative nursing student’s presentation skills between exposure to the traditional PowerPoint presentations and Pecha Kucha presentations. Methods The study employed an uncontrolled quasi-experimental design (pre-post) using a quantitative research approach among 230 randomly selected nursing students at the respective training institution. An interviewer-administered structured questionnaire adopted from previous studies to measure presentation skills between June and July 2023 was used. The study involved the training of research assistants, pre-assessment of presentation skills, training of participants, assigning topics to participants, classroom presentations, and post-intervention assessment. A linear regression analysis model was used to determine the effect of the intervention on nursing students’ presentation skills using Statistical Package for Social Solution (SPSS) version 26, set at a 95% confidence interval and 5% significance level. Results Findings revealed that 63 (70.87%) participants were aged ≤ 23 years, of which 151 (65.65%) and 189 (82.17%) of them were males and undergraduate students, respectively. Post-test findings showed a significant mean score change in participants’ presentation skills between baseline (M = 4.07 ± SD = 0.56) and end-line (M = 4.54 ± SD = 0.59) that accounted for 0.4717 ± 0.7793; p < .0001(95%CI) presentation skills mean score change with a medium effect size of 0.78. An increase in participants’ knowledge of Pecha Kucha presentation was associated with a 0.0239 (p < .0001) increase in presentation skills. Conclusion Pecha Kucha presentations have a significant effect on nursing students’ presentation skills as they enhance inquiry and mastery of their learning content before classroom presentations. The pedagogical approach appeared to enhance nursing students’ confidence during the classroom presentation. Therefore, there is a need to incorporate Pecha Kucha presentation pedagogy into nursing curricula and nursing education at large to promote student-centered teaching and learning activities and the development of survival skills. Trial registration It was not applicable as it was a quasi-experimental study

Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
No full textWe 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
