    Konflik merupakan suatu keadaan yang tidak normal. Eskalasi konflik dimulai dengan adanya perbedaaan pendapat antara beberapa pihak, meningkat menjadi krisis, dilanjutkan dengan terjadinya kekerasan sebagian, dan pada akhirnya berubah menjadi kekerasan massal. Efek dari terjadinya kekerasan massal sangat mengerikan. Sebagai contoh konflik yang terjadi di poso yang menyebabkan ribuan manusia meninggal dan meninggalkan luka psikologis pada masyarakat yang terkena dampak konflik tersebut. Jika dikaitkan dengan konflik sosial, perlu dilakukan pendekatan resolusi konflik dengan pendekatan nilai – nilai kearifan lokal. Resolusi konflik dengan pendekatan nilai – nilai kearifan lokal dipercaya sebagai bagian terpenting yang berfungsi untuk mempererat hubungan sosial di antara masyarakat. Dalam realitasnya kearifan lokal pada masyarakat Sumatera Selatan tepatnya di kabupaten OKU dapat menjadi pondasi awal yang mengintegrasikan masyarakat dalam keadaan yang multikultur. Kearifan lokal dapat digunakan sebagai resolusi konflik untuk kasus konflik antar kelompok etnis maupun kasus konflik yang bernuansa agama. Resolusi konflik yang berbasis nilai – nilai kearifan lokal bisa menjadi cara yang efektif arena sudah menjadi pedoman hidup dalam bermasyarakat.Konflik merupakan suatu keadaan yang tidak normal.

The research was aimed at discovering the way online vocabulary games as potential enhancements of students’ vocabulary acquisition in helping students to learn and retain vocabulary. Some online vocabulary games from www.eslgamesplus.com and www.vocabulary.co.il were selected in order to conduct the research. The elements following the online vocabulary games, which are, pictorial illustration, interaction among players, competition, animation included sounds and music, immediate feedback, context, and problem solving are believed to be helpful in students’ learning processes. There were ten students of grade four observed as the subjects of the research. Furthermore, in order to collect and identify the data, the research employs qualitative method. In addition to data analysis, Wood (2001) and Yip and Kwan (2006) frameworks are used for maintaining the way online vocabulary games help students in vocabulary acquisition. The learning processes were observed by conducting field notes. After conducting the vocabulary learning through online vocabulary games in eight meetings, the students were given a “hangman” game related to the vocabularies learned through online vocabulary games. The winner of the games was the girls’ team which included the higher and middle achiever in the team. Based on the discussion of the questionnaire analysis, the findings showed that the online vocabulary games play important role in helping students’ vocabulary learning processes through the elements mentioned before. The result of interview also provides the students’ confirmation towards the helpful elements of online vocabulary games such as, the animation, sounds and music helped them to create relaxing atmosphere to learn vocabulary happily. The competition among them also helped the students to win the game by mastering vocabularies well. The questionnaires also mentioned the positive result of students’ perceptions towards online vocabulary games in the classroom session. Thus, it can be concluded that the students’ responses towards the online vocabulary games were positive. The research is beneficial for teachers to conduct various ways in teaching vocabularies

    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

    Get PDF
    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

    koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist

    We have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
