The last file contains the Bloom's Taxonomy keywords that were used for the question evaluation.</p> <p>This dataset was created to highlight the usage of AI in educational context. It particularly focuses on questions as our goal was to revive the innate curiosity of students to learn through querying. Computer science (CS) courses have been particularly focused as we found higher dropout rates in CS courses compared to others.</p> <p>The questions in this dataset have been manually pre-processed and categorized according to their course and topics. They have also been scored using Bloom's taxonomy's six levels of questions [remember (10 points), understand (20 points), apply (20points), analyze (25 points), evaluate (35 points), create (40 points)]. Any question above 100 points is considered a high level question and the maximum attainable score for a single question is 150 points. </p&gt

    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

    Full text link
    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

    Full text link
    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

    No full text
    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

    A Thesis Submitted to the Deparinient of Agricultural Chemistry Sher-e-Bangla Agricultural University, Dhaka, in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF SCIENCE IN AGRICULTURAL CHEMISTRY SEMESTER: JANUARY-JUNE, 2016The experiment was conducted in the experimental field of Sher-e-Bangla Agricultural University, Dhaka. Bangladesh during the period from October, 2016 to March 2017 for the evaluation of the repellent effects of different botanical extracts on tomato insects.BARI tomato 15 was used as test crop. There were 7 treatment vi:. i) Neem leaf extract @ 0.5 kg U' of water at 5 days interval, ii) Neem leaf extract @ 0.5 kg U' of water at ID days interval, iii) Neem oil @3.0 ml U' of water at 5 days interval. iv) Neem oil @3.0 ml Ul of water at 10 days interval, v) Garlic extract Ø 0.5 kg L of water at 5 days interval, vi) Garlic extract @ 0.5 kg U' of water at tO days interval and vii) control (no repellant)was used for the experiment. The present study showed signilicant effect to control insects effectively. The lowest incidence of whitefly.jassid. aphid and leaf miners plani' (16.31. 1.60, 16.70 and 3.12 respectively) presence by number were found more effective with (Neem oil @3.0 ml U' of water at 5 days interval) where control treatment gave the highest incidence (35.44. 4.10. 30.67 and 5.62 respectively). Treatment of 13 (Neem oil (t 3.0 ml U' of water at 5 days interval) also showed highest percent reduction whitefly, jassid. aphid and leaf miners plani' over control (53.98. 60.98. 46.55 and 44.48% respectively). The highest plant height (105.66 cm), number of branches plani' (7.44), number of healthy fruits planr' (37.41), weight of healthy fruits planf' (1516.29 g). healthy fruit yield hi' (60.65 0 and total fruit yield hi' (65.55 t) also achieved by Neem oil @ 3.0 ml U' of water at 5 days interval) where control treatment gave the lowest performance with these parameters. Neem leaf extract @0.5 kg U' of water at 5 days interval and Garlic extract @ 0.5 kg U' of water at 5 days interval treatment also gave better performance in respect to control treatment. In terms of ceo-friendly management. it was found that botanical antimierobials derived from plants are currently recotized as biodegradable. systemic. ceo-friendly and non-toxic to mammals and are thus considered safe. Botanical products are environmentally safe, less hazardous. economic and easily available
