Educational computer games: Perspective of pre-school prospective teachers
Ö renme ortamlar nda oyun ile ö renmeye dayal etkinliklerin ö rencilerin ilgisini çekti i ve oyunlar sayesinde birçok konunun/kavram n daha kolay ve e lenceli bir ekilde ö renildi i bilinmektedir. Teknoloji sayesinde oyunlar art k e itsel bilgisayar oyunlar na dönü mü tür. Bu nedenle ö renme ortamlar na e itsel bilgisayar oyunlar n entegre etmek gerekmektedir. Bu ba lamda ara t rman n amac okul öncesi ö retmen adaylar n n ö renme ortamlar nda e itsel bilgisayar oyunu kullan m na yönelik bak aç s n belirlemektir. Ara t rmada bir devlet üniversitesinin E itim Fakültesi"nde 2015-2016 bahar döneminde Okul Öncesi Ö retmenli i program n n 4.s n f nda ö renim gören 10 okul öncesi ö retmen aday n n e itsel bilgisayar oyunlar n n e itim-ö retim sürecinde kullan m na yönelik görü lerinin ortaya ç kar lmas amaçlanm t r. Bu amaçla çal mada veriler aç k uçlu sorular yard m yla toplan lm t r. Elde edilen veriler öncelikle de ifre edilmi , daha sonra düzenlenerek analiz edilmi tir. Aç k uçlu sorulara ö retmen adaylar n n vermi olduklar cevaplar düzenlendi inde ortak baz kodlar elde edilmi olup, bu kodlar uygun temalar alt nda sergilenmi tir. Ara t rma sonucunda, okul öncesi ö retmen adaylar e itsel bilgisayar oyunlar n n ö renme ortam nda kullan lmas n n olumlu oldu unu belirtmi lerdir. Bunun yan s ra, e itsel bilgisayar oyunlar n n baz olumsuzluklar da beraberinde getirdi i ortaya ç km t rIt was known that activities based on learning with game have attracted the interest of student in learning environments, learned some topic /concept more easily and more entertainment for the students. Thanks to technology, games are now turned into educational computer games. Therefore, it is necessary to integrate educational computer games into learning environments. In this content; the aim of this study was to identify the pre-school prospective teachers? opinion on education computer games. The sample of research consist of ten pre-school prospective teachers? having education in fourth years in the department of ten pre-school teacher training of education faculty at 2015-2016 spring semester. The data was collected with open-ended questions. Firstly obtained data was transcript and then was editing analyzed. Some mutual codes acquired and this code exhibited at suitable themes when the answer given by prospective teachers to open-ended questions are arranged. According to the result of research, pre-school prospective teachers indicated the use of education computer games in the learning environment is positive. Besides, it was revealed that education computer games accompany some negativ
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
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

Author Under Sail The Imagination of Jack London, 1893-1902
In Author Under Sail, Jay Williams offers the first complete literary biography of Jack London as a professional writer engaged in the labor of writing. It examines the authorial imagination in London's work, the use of imagination in both his fiction and nonfiction, and the ways he defined imagination in the creative process in his business dealings with his publishers, editors, and agents. In this first volume of a two-volume biography, Williams traverses the years 1893 to 1902, from London's "Story of a Typhoon" to The People of the Abyss. The Jack London who emerges in the pages of Author Under Sail is a writer whose partnership with publishers, most notably his productive alliance with George Brett of Macmillan, was one of the most formative in American literary history. London pioneered many author models during the heyday of realism and naturalism, blurring the boundaries of these popular genres by focusing on absorption and theatricality and the representation of the seen and unseen. London created an impassioned, sincere, and extremely personal realism unlike that of other American writers of the time. Author Under Sail is a literary tour de force that reveals the full range of London as writer, creative citizen, and entrepreneur at the same time it sheds light on the maverick side of machine-age literature.Intro -- Title Page -- Copyright Page -- Dedication -- Contents -- Acknowledgments -- Introduction -- 1.
