Pembangunan profil standard kebangsaan bagi kemahiran informal Orang Asli Malaysia demi kelestarian warisan etnik
No full textKemahiran informal orang Asli merupakan potensi semulajadi yang telah menghasilkan
banyak produk seni dan kraf yang telah berjaya menarik perhatian pelancong tempatan dan
asing. Sebahagiannya telah berjaya memperolehi anugerah di peringkat antarabangsa.
Namun begitu, mereka tidak memperolehi sebarang pengiktirafan yang mampu dijadikan satu
standard dalam kemahiran vokasional Orang Asli. Bidang seni kraf ini telah banyak
dipelopori oleh ramai kelompok etnik, namun tiada satu standard yang seragam dalam aktiviti
kemahiran ini. Oleh itu, satu profil standard yang selaras dengan kemahiran kebangsaan
perlu dibangunkan sebagai panduan dalam pembentukan silibus kemahiran hasil dari
kemahiran informal golongan ini. Pendekatan kajian ialah rekabentuk kajian kes secara
penerokaan. Data dikumpulkan dengan menggunakan kaedah temubual, pemerhatian dan
pengumpulan dokumen. Kajian akan dilakukan di penempatan Mah Meri (Selangor), Jakun
(Pahang) dan Semai (Johor). Profil ini diharapkan merupakan satu usaha ke arah
memelihara dan memuliharan khazanah warisan etnik, disamping membantu orang asli
memajukan diri dan mendapatkan pengiktirafan yang sewajarnya
Penerapan kemahiran Employability dalam pengajaran dan pembelajaran di Kolej Komuniti di negeri Johor
No full textKemahiran employability merupakan satu kemahiran yang diperlukan oleh pelajar sebagai persiapan untuk memasuki bidang pekerjaan kelak. Namun begitu, agak kurang kajian yang dilakukan terhadap graduan dari institusi kemahiran seperti kolej komuniti. Oleh itu kajian ini dijalankan untuk mengenalpasti penerapan kemahiran employability yang paling banyak diterapkan oleh pensyarah di kolej komuniti bagi negeri Johor. Selain itu, kajian ini juga adalah untuk mengetahui penguasaan pelajar dalam kemahiran employability dan masalah-masalah yang dihadapi oleh pensyarah dalam menerapkan kemahiran ini. Elemen-elemen kemahiran yang dikaji adalah meliputi tujuh elemen utama iaitu kemahiran komunikasi, kemahiran kepimpinan, kemahiran kerja pasukan, kemahiran menyelesaikan masalah, kemahiran etika dan profesional dan kemahiran perniagaan. Kajian ini merupakan kajian tinjauan dengan menggunakan borang soal selidik sebagai instrumen utama. Borang soal selidik telah diedarkan kepada 140 orang pelajar dan 44 orang pensyarah dari tiga buah kolej komuniti (KK) di negeri Johor iaitu dari KK Batu Pahat, KK Kluang dan KK Muar. Data dikumpul dan dianalisis menggunakan perisian Statistical Package for the Social Science (SPSS) versi 21.0 bagi mendapatkan nilai skor min dan sisihan piawai. Dapatan kajian menunjukkan bahawa kemahiran employability yang paling banyak diterapkan oleh pensyarah adalah kemahiran perniagaan. Sementara itu, kemahiran yang sangat dikuasai oleh pelajar juga adalah kemahiran perniagaan. Antara ciri-ciri yang tidak ditikberatkan oleh pensyarah adalah kurang menggunakan komputer semasa mengajar dan tidak memiliki kemahiran yang tinggi dalam penggunaan teknologi. Kajian ini diharap dapat membantu pensyarah dan pelajar untuk bersedia meningkatkan kemahiran employability dalam diri
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
