Prosthetic assessment in cleft lip and palate patients: A case report with oronasal communication

2006

The cleft lip and palate patient is mainly characterized by the presence of an oronasal communication, malformation or agenesis of the teeth close to the cleft, and deficient sagittal and transverse growth of the maxilla. These patients require various treatments involving a multidisciplinary team, which may include a maxillofacial surgeon, an orthodontist, a speech therapist, a paediatrician, a general dentist, a prosthodontist, an ENT specialist, a psychologist and all those professionals who can help provide functional, aesthetic and psychological improvement. This report describes a case of prosthetic rehabilitation in a patient with cleft lip and palate and an oronasal fistula (communi…

Classroom discussions: Possibilities and limitations for democratic classroom practices

2017

Are students offered possibilities to experience democratic practice in classrooms? Using an analysis of empirical data from classroom discussions in lower secondary school, this article identifies and explores two different types of classroom discussions which give students different positions: a conversation in which students are positioned as ‘poll respondents’, and a more deliberative conversation which positions students as learning debaters. The two forms of classroom discussions are discussed due to the way they give different meaning to democracy, and due to whether the student positions in the classrooms imply contribution to the subject matter and what is considered valuable knowl…

Arctic Connect Project and Cyber Security Control, ARCY

2019

The submarine communication cables form a vast network on the seabed and transmit massive amounts of data across oceans. They provide over 95% of international telecommunications — not via satellites as is commonly assumed. The global submarine network is the “backbone” of the Internet, and enables the ubiquitous use of mail, social media, phone and banking services. To these days no any other technology than submarine cables systems has not been such a strategic impact to our society without being known it as such by the people. This also means that it is at the same time a very interesting destination for hackers, cyber attackers, terrorist and state actors. They seek to gain access to in…

Satelliittijärjestelmän linkkibudjettianalyysi

2013

Tutkielmassa selvitetään kirjallisuuskatsauksen avulla DVB-S ja DVB-RCS standardien mukaisten interaktiivisten satelliittijärjestelmien linkkibudjettia. Toisen sukupolven standardien eli DVB-S2 ja DVB-RCS2 mukaisten järjestelmien erityispiirteiden huomioiminen linkkibudjetin kannalta on tutkielman keskeinen teema. Tutkielma pyrkii antamaan selkeän kuvan satelliittijärjestelmän linkkibudjetista sekä tuomaan näkökulmia satelliittijärjestelmien jatkotutkimukseen ja suunnittelutyöhön. The link budget analysis of the satellite system. This paper discusses the link budget of the satellite systems based on DVB-S and DVB-RCS standards. Used method is literature review. The key theme is to study spe…

Coaches’ Perceptions of Athletes’ Psychobiosocial States : The Case of Three Tennis Coach-Athlete Dyads

2018

Considering the limited attention paid to interpersonal aspects of emotions, this study explored coaches’ perceptions of athletes’ performance-related states and how they used this information for its regulation. Using a case study approach, three coach-athlete dyads from competitive tennis took part in one-on-one semi-structured interviews. Individualized profiling of psychobiosocial states was used to assess athletes’ states in most and least successful performances and as a way of data triangulation. Findings indicated that the coaches paid attention to bodily, motor-behavioural, and operational components of a performance state, and used this information to appropriately adapt their res…

Joint Subcarrier and Phase Shifts Optimization for RIS-aided Localization-Communication System

2022

Joint localization and communication systems have drawn significant attention due to their high resource utilization. In this paper, we consider a reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS)-aided simultaneously localization and communication system. We first determine the sum squared position error bound (SPEB) as the localization accuracy metric for the presented localization-communication system. Then, a joint RIS discrete phase shifts design and subcarrier assignment problem is formulated to minimize the SPEB while guaranteeing each user’s achievable data rate requirement. For the presented non-convex mixed-integer problem, we propose an iterative algorithm to obtain a suboptimal solution …

An analysis of communicative exercises of two English workbooks from the Finnish middle school

2018

Tämän tutkielman tavoitteena on selvittää kahden suomalaisen yläkoulun A1-englannin harjoituskirjan suulliseen kommunikaatioon keskittyvien tehtävien määrää ja laatua. Uusin opetussuunnitelma sekä yleinen kielenopetukseen liittyvä keskustelu tähdentävät kommunikoinnin ja suullisen kielitaidon tärkeyttä. Tämä tutkimus osaltaan selvittää näiden ideaalien toteutumista kahdessa englannin kielen harjoituskirjassa. Kirjat, joita tutkittiin, olivat On the Go 1 Workbook ja Scene 1 Exercises, jotka ovat peruskoulun seitsemännen luokan harjoituskirjoja. Näistä kirjoista pyrittiin tunnistamaan sellaiset tehtävät, jotka suoraan harjoittavat englanninkielistä suullisen kommunikaation kompetenssin kehity…

Das ritual der unterwerfung Stefan Nemanjas unter Maunel I. Komnenos (1172)

2013

This article investigates the ceremonial of the subjection of the Serbian zupan Stefan Nemanja to the Byzantine emperor Manuel I Komnenos (1172) and compares it with similar events of the period in question. It argues for a strong influence of western forms of conflict resolution (?deditio?) in the ceremonial.

Teaching Knowledge Management by Combining Wikis and Screen Capture Videos

2011

PurposeThis paper aims to report on the design and creation of a knowledge management course aimed at facilitating student creation and use of social interactive learning tools for enhanced learning.Design/methodology/approachThe era of social media and web 2.0 has enabled a bottom‐up collaborative approach and new ways to publish work on the web, promoted by tools such as YouTube video service. In this spirit a knowledge management course was designed aiming to facilitate university students to compose videos on different difficult concepts in the theory part of the course by searching for explanations on the web and by creating a Windows Media Player video focusing on the self‐defined pro…
