This study compares Spanish and UK research in eight subject fields using a range of bibliometric and social media indicators. For each field, lists of Spanish and UK journal articles published in the year 2012 and their citation counts were extracted from Scopus. The software Webometric Analyst was then used to extract a range of altmetrics for these articles, including patent citations, online presentation mentions, online course syllabus mentions, Wikipedia mentions and Mendeley reader counts and Altmetric.com was used to extract Twitter mentions. Results show that Mendeley is the altmetric source with the highest coverage, with 80% of sampled articles having one or more Mendeley readers, followed by Twitter (34%). The coverage of the remaining sources was lower than 3%. All of the indicators checked either have too little data or increase the overall difference between Spain and the UK and so none can be suggested as alternatives to reduce the bias against Spain in traditional citation indexes.

In a study, [28] argues that use of presentations that are prepared without paying attention to rules may have a negative affect on learning. It is also contended that the existence of graphics in the presentations that are unrelated to the topic may have an adverse effect on learning [3].…”

The data obtained was statistically analyzed (ANOVA). It was found that there is no any statistically meaningful difference in the participants' attitude toward the use of PowerPoint in respect to gender, but there was significant difference in the participants' attitude toward the use of PowerPoint according to academic units attended. Recently, the findings were discussed in terms of the use of PowerPoint as a supporting tool in the lectures and its importance.

“…It is thought that the teacher candidates have found PowerPoint program simple and understandable due to the fact that they prepared small applications with this program beforehand. Uz, Orhan and Bilgiç (2010) examined the opinions of prospective teachers about PowerPoint and found that prospective teachers have a positive opinion on PowerPoint, and the use of PowerPoint in the lessons contributes to learning.…”
