    Penelitian ini akan mengembangkan aplikasi multimedia interaktif dengan pendekatan STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) yang selaras dengan kemajuan abad 21 serta dapat melatihkan keterampilan berpikir kreatif siswa. Aplikasi multimedia interaktif yang dikembangkan ini bernama Ilmuwan Alit untuk materi gaya dan gerak kelas IV SD. Tujuan dari penelitian ini untuk mengetahui kelayakan media yang dikembangkan ditinjau dari aspek validitas, kepraktisan, dan keefektifan dalam melatihkan keterampilan berpikir kreatif siswa. Penelitian ini menerapkan model R&D yang dijabarkan oleh Sugiyono dengan mengadaptasi pada tahap 1-6 saja yaitu (1) tahap analisis potensi dan masalah, (2) pengumpulan data, (3) desain produk, (4) validasi produk, (5) revisi desain, (6) uji coba produk. Teknik pengumpulan data didapatkan melalui validasi, angket respon guru dan siswa, serta tes keterampilan berpikir kreatif siswa melalui uji coba produk pada 28 siswa kelas IV SD Muhammadiyah 2 Taman. Teknik analisis data penelitian ini menggunakan teknik analisis data deskriptif kuantitatif. Hasil validasi media mendapatkan presentase 89,00%, validasi materi 88,72% secara keseluruhan termasuk kategori sangat valid. Skor kepraktisan melalui respon siswa mendapatkan presentase 98,67% dan respon guru 96,66% termasuk kategori sangat praktis. Keefektifan media diperoleh berdasarkan uji N-Gain dan Mann Whitney dari hasil tes keterampilan berpikir kreatif siswa, melalui uji N-Gain diperoleh skor kelas eksperimen sebesar 0,61 dan kelas kontrol sebesar 0,22 artinya keterampilan berpikir kreatif siswa pada kelas eksperimen lebih meningkat daripada kelas kontrol, serta Uji Mann Whitney menunjukkan adanya perbedaan skor N-Gain antara kelas eksperimen dan kontrol. Hasil analisis menunjukan bahwa aplikasi multimedia interaktif Ilmuwan Alit dengan pendekatan STEM pada materi gaya dan gerak untuk melatihkan keterampilan berpikir kreatif siswa sangat layak digunakan sebagai media dalam proses pembelajaran sekaligus mampu menstimulus siswa untuk merekayasa proyek dengan memanfaatkan benda sekitar yang menerapkan konsep materi gaya dan gerak. Kata Kunci: Multimedia Interaktif, Pendekatan STEM, Keterampilan Berpikir Kreatif

    Integration of Ethnomathematics Teaching Materials in Mathematics Learning in Elementary School

    Objective: This research serves as a preliminary study to outline the framework and projection of ethnomathematics studies, particularly concerning the integration of ethnomathematics into mathematics curriculum and the development of mathematics learning objectives using an ethnomathematical approach. Method: The research employs a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) methodology involving identifying, evaluating, and interpreting relevant literature on the research topic. Results:  The findings reveal that the ethnomathematical approach effectively enhances students' understanding of mathematics. Students exhibit higher motivation and satisfaction with mathematics learning when connected to their local culture. Novelty: This research shows that the ethnomathematics approach facilitates the development of teachers' competencies in integrating cultural elements into mathematics education. Both teachers' recommendations and research findings support the inclusion of ethnomathematics in mathematics curricula both directly in developing learning tools and materials and in curriculum policies. Additionally, there is potential for technology applications to support ethnomathematics learning, enabling students to study mathematics independently. In conclusion, integrating ethnomathematics holds significant potential in improving students' mathematical understanding, connecting mathematics with local culture, and motivating students to learn mathematics more enjoyable and relevantly

    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
