Authentic Material and Automaticity for Teaching English
This article discusses how to make students of Science Education in first year feel interesting in English lesson, understanding the text well and can communicate English fluency. It has been suggested that Authentic Material and Automaticity Theory not only creates a friendly and fun condition in teaching reading but helps students to study comprehensibly so they are able to understand the text, structure, vocabulary easily, read fluently and they also can communicate in English. The authentic material can make the teaching learning process fun and eliminate boring because the topics and materials can be found in internet so it will be more visually and interactive . Automaticity theory can solve the problem of students who must memorize words that make them feel boring and forget the words soon. The other benefit is the students can exposure the real language being used in a real context and stimulate studens’idea, encouarage them to relate themselves with real-life experiencesThese strategies can make the students understand easily and enjoy the teaching learning process. By combining authentic material and automaticity strategies for teaching English in science education, will develop readers (students) to become fully competent and fluent

Volume gas terbanyak diperoleh pada loading rate 80%,sebanyak 31,2 liter.Kata kunci : biogas; bioreactor; fermentasi anaerob; sampah organi
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
Perilaku Menggunakan Kondom pada Wanita Penjaja Seks Jalanan di Jakarta Timur Tahun 2006
Infeksi Menular Seksual (IMS) di banyak negara merupakan ancaman serius global yang berdampak pada individu, keluarga dan masyarakat. Pada perempuan, IMS sulit didiagnosa dan berdampak lebih besar, karena umumnya tampa gejala, timbul rasa bersalah dan malu mencari pengobatan sehingga menjadi beban tersembunyi. Prevalensi IMS dari berbagai penelitian di Indonesia pada periode 1990-2000 relatif tinggi. Strategi memutuskan rantai penularan antara lain melalui promosi kondom khususnya pada Wanita Penjaja Seks (WPS) yang berisiko tinggi IMS. Penelitian ini bertujuan mengetahui berbagai faktor yang berhubungan dengan perilaku pemakaian kondom pada Wanita Pekerja Seks jalanan di Jakarta Timur tahun 2006. Penelitian dengan rancangan studi cross sectional ini menggunakan data primer 112 Wanita Pekerja Seks jalanan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa terdapat 60,7% responden yang menggunakan kondom pada saat hubungan seks terakhir. Hasil analisis multivariat menunjukkan bahwa pengalaman menderita IMS merupakan faktor yang paling dominan dengan OR sebesar 3,55. Variabel umur, tingkat pendidikan, lama bekerja sebagai WPS, pengetahuan tentang IMS, serta keterpaparan informasi tidak berhubungan secara bermakna dengan perilaku menggunakan kondom. Disarankan mempermudah akses terhadap kondom, meningkatkan kualitas maupun kuantitas KIE; menjalin kemitraan dengan berbagai pihak terkait; dan pemberdayaan WPS dalam kegiatan penyebarluasan informasi tentang IMS dan kondom.Kata kunci : Perilaku, kondom, wanita pekerja seks jalanan, IMSAbstractIn most countries in the world, sexually transmitted infections (STIs) are considered as a serious threat, they pose great impact on individual, family, and community. The impacts of STIs on women are usually more severe and more difficult to be diagnosed than impacts on men because STIs usually occurred without observable symptoms, and usually woman has guilty feeling and embarrassed about their condition and thus hinder them to look for medication. These make STIs a hidden burden for women. Prevalence of STIs in Indonesia according to several studies in 1990-2000 periods is quite high. One strategy to break the infection chain is to promote condom use among women sex workers (WSW). This study aims at investigating factors related to condom use practice among street WSW in East Jakarta. The design of this study is cross-sectional with quantitative approach, and using primary data of 112 street WSW. The study found that there are 60.7% respondents who use condom in the last sexual activity. Multivariate analysis shows that the most dominant factor is the experience on suffering from STIs infection, with OR 3.55. Age, level of education, working duration as WSW, knowledge on STIs, and exposure on STIs information, all have no statistically significant relationship with condom use practice. It is suggested that to increase the access and availability of condom, to increase the quality and quantity of information, education, and communication activities by strengthening networking and partnership with related sectors, and to empower the WSW themselves on disseminating and spreading information on STIs and condom.Keywords : Behavior, condom, street woman sex workers, STI
