Get PDFGenre-based approach and student-centered learning in Kurikulum 2013 require
foreign language teachers to be more creative and cooperative with the students in
delivering the materials. Task-Based Language Teaching (TBLT), Cognitive
Grammar and VAK learning styles were involved in this study to see if they could be
an effective alternative way for teachers to conduct their class. The purpose of the
study is to propose a teaching model that involves TBLT approach integrated with
cognitive grammar and students‘ learning style preference applied in an experimental
class to see whether this model can be effective to elevate students‘ grammar
competence. The participants of the study were students of Grade X Science Major in
SMA N 1 Ungaran. The study is quasi-experimental design using descriptive
statistics and two-way ANOVA to analyze the data. Besides the statistical analysis,
the author describes the findings in descriptive explanation to accommodate the
confounding variables, such as learning motivation and learning anxiety. The finding
showed that integrating cognitive approach and learning styles consideration in TBLT
was effective to generate students‘ grammar competence. It implies that the three
variables involved in the work are useful in grammar pedagogy both separately and
simultaneously. The close relation between TBLT and CG approach in K13 makes it
noteworthy in Indonesian EFL class. By means of authentic and real-life context
materials which delivered in creatively multisensory strategy, the problematic
grammar can be friendly to the students. Lastly, students‘ learning style consideration
enriches the study by notion that every learner is unique and teacher must handle this
uniqueness in their teaching strategy.
Pendekatan genre-based dan student-centered learning pada Kurikulum 2013
mengharuskan guru untuk lebih aktif-kooperatif dengan siswanya pada proses
pembelajaran. Dengan melibatkan tiga variabel,yaitu Task-Based Language
Teaching (TBLT), Grammar Kognitif dan Gaya Belajar Visual, Audio dan Kinestetik,
studi ini berusaha melihat apakah ketiganya dapat menjadi alternatif guru dalam
menyampaikan materi di kelas. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah menawarkan
pendekatan TBLT yang diintegrasikan dengan grammar kognitif dan gaya belajar
siswa dalam suatu model pembelajaran yang diterapkan pada kelas eksperimental
untuk melihat apakah model ini efektif dalam upaya meningkatkan kompetensi
grammar siswa. Penelitian ini melibatkan siswa Kelas X Jurusan MIPA di SMA N 1
Ungaran. Studi ini merupakan penelitian kuasi eksperimental dengan menggunakan
ANOVA 2 dan statistik deskriptif untuk menganalisis data. Selain menggunakan
analisis statistik, penulis juga menganalisis variabel-variabel perancu yang tidak
dapat dijelaskan dengan menggunakan ANOVA secara deskriptif. Hasil dari
penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa model pembelajaran TBLT yang diintegrasikan
dengan kognitif grammar dan gaya belajar efektif untuk meningkatkan kompetensi
Bahasa Inggris siswa. Hal ini membuktikan bahwa ketiga variable dalam penelitian
ini bermanfaat dalam pembelajaran bahasa baik ketika diterapkan secara terpisah
maupun bersama-sama. Kesamaan pendekatan TBLT dan grammar kognitif dalam
Kurikulum 2013 membuat keduanya sangat layak untuk diterapkan di kelas bahasa
asing di Indonesia. Materi yang dikembangkan berdasarkan fakta yang ada di sekitar
siswa dan diberikan dengan menggunakan strategi yang memberdayakan panca
indera dapat membantu siswa untuk berdamai dengan grammar Bahasa Inggris yang
selama ini mereka anggap rumit. Selain itu, gaya belajar siswa memperkaya studi ini
dengan berdasarkan fakta bahwa setiap siswa adalah unik dan guru bertugas untuk
menyesuaikan strategi mengajar mereka dengan keunikan yang dimiliki siswanya
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe 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
Get PDF“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
Get PDFWe 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 PDFWe 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 textWe 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
No full textIn 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.
