THE INFLUENCE OF USING PICTURE CARDS TO DEVELOP STUDENT’S VOCABULARY MASTERY OF SDN 63 PAREPARE
No full textThe instrument of the research was multiple choice vocabulary test. In the process of collecting data, the researcher carried out an observation, interview, and some vocabulary tests. The researcher described and clarifies a phenomena or social fact by describing some variables related to examined problems or issues and formulating hypothesis into inferential levels by using statistic analysis.The result of interview from the teacher showed that teaching new vocabulary to the students is important and need precisely techniques. One way to motivate the students in learning vocabulary was using media as technique, for expample using picture.The result of some statistical analysis showed that there was significant different between post test by using picture cards and post test without using picture cards. The mean score obtain the students’ post test by without using picture cards was 73 (classified as fairly good) and the mean score of the students’ post test by using picture cards was (94.5 classified as very goo
Elevating the Pre-service Teacher's Translation Skill based on Learner Autonomy
Full text linkThis paper attempts to improve the pre-service teachers based on student's learner Autonomy. The EFL classroom by first describing the role of translation in EFL learning, then exploring Learner Autonomy can be regarded as an effective teaching method to elevate student's Translation skill. Research setting at West-Sulawesi University, Majene West Sulawesi. The method was used pre-experimental design by one group pretest and posttest. Over 22 students programming Translation were the samples of this study by using purposive sampling technique. To collect the data, researchers used translation test as instrument, it was applied on pretest and posttest. To improve student's skill towards Translation, Learner Autonomy was implemented for 12 meetings within 4 months. The notion of learner independence or learner autonomy moves into an area where learners can direct their own learning particularly in translating the sentences and text provided during the class. It could mean those learning activities which take place without the immediate intervention of the teacher. In this scenario, learners set their own objectives and follow strategies devised by them to fulfill them. This is in turn facilitates the learner to become more efficient and effective when they study independently. Learners are compelled to assume responsibility for their own learning. The result of this study was Learner Autonomy successfully elevated the pre-service teacher's Translation
Teori Pengolahan Informasi: Perspektif Pendidikan
Full text linkInformation management theories emphasize that transformation and information ideology through cognition sistem. the important one that informations was present in front on students have to clear and easy so they can correlated the new information with old information in their memory, the they understand how to use that knowledge. The aimed of this paper will help the plan of teaching-learning process run well, so it will develop the knowledge and then students understand well about that knowledge. The teacher had better prepare an introduction organizers and symbols to help students to memorize an informations when they need it to minimize cognition working. Theories of information management focused on study about attention, perception, code, storage and conclude the knowledge. Information management had influenced by communication and technology development
PEMBERIAN SARI TEMPE TERHADAP PROFIL LIPID PADA PENDERITA HIPERKOLESTEROLEMIA RAWAT JALAN DI RUMAH SAKIT AVICENNA BIREUEN
Full text linkPrevalensi hiperkolesterolemia di Indonesia tahun 2013 pada wanita sebesar 39,6%, nilainya lebih tinggi dari pada laki-laki yang sebesar 30,0%. Hiperkolesterolemia dapat menyebabkan aterosklerosis dan penyakit jantung koroner. Antioksidan diketahui dapat menurunkan kadar kolesterol total. Isoflavon salah satu antioksidan yang terdapat pada tempe. Tempe mengandung serat, saponin dan niasin yang terbukti memiliki efek menurunkan kadar kolesterol sehingga menurunkan kadar kolesterol LDL dan kolesterol total sekaligus meningkatkan kadar kolesterol HDL. Penelitian kuantitatif ini dilakukan dengan pendekatan deskriptif analitik menggunakan desain quasi-experimental. Sampel kasus merupakan penderita hiperkolesterolemia yang ada di RS Avicenna berjumlah 30 orang. Analisis menggunakan software R-Statistik, meliputi uji statistik Dependent T-Test pada tingkat kepercayaan 95% (α = 0,05). Ada pengaruh yang signifikan pemberian sari tempe terhadap kadar kolesterol total, kadar kolesterol LDL, kadar kolesterol HDL, dan kadar kolesterol trigliserida yaitu (p<0,05) pada pasien hiperkolesterolemia rawat jalan di RS Avicenna. Rata-rata pada kelompok kasus terhadap pasien hiperkolesterolemia rawat jalan di RS Avicenna sesudah pemberian sari tempe; kadar kolesterol total, kolesterol LDL, dan kolesterol trigliserida, serta meningkatkan kadar kolesterol HDL secara bermakna berurut-urut sebesar 253,93 mg/dl, 177,19 mg/dl, 40,93 mg/dl, dan 88,60 mg/dl
Indonesian women hypercholesterolemia prevalence in 2013 were 39.6%, higher than men that have 30.0%. Hypercholesterolemia can cause atherosclerosis and coronary heart disease. Antioxidants are known to reduce total cholesterol levels. Isoflavones are one of the antioxidants that found in tempe. Tempe contains fiber, saponins and niacin which have the effect of lowering cholesterol levels, so that can lowering LDL cholesterol levels, total cholesterol levels, and increasing HDL cholesterol levels. This quantitative research was conducted by an analytical d es cr ip t ive a p pr oa ch u s ing qu a s i -e x p er iment a l design. Samples amounted to 30 patients with hypercholesterolemia. Analysis using R-St atisti c soft war e, including a stat ist ical t est of dependent T-test at 95% confidence level (α =0.05). There was significant effect of tempe extract on total cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, and triglyceride cholesterol (p <0.05) in outpatient hypercholesterolemia in Avicenna Hospital. Average in the case group of outpatient hypercholesterolemia patients in Avicenna Hospital after tempe extract total cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, and triglyceride cholesterol levels and significantly increased HDL cholesterol levels of 253.93 mg/ dl, 177.19 mg/ dl, 40.93 mg/dl, and 88.60 mg/dl. There was significant effect on lipid profile before and after intervention in tempe treatment group
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe 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
Full text link“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 linkWe 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 linkWe 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
