Enabling and constraining family: young women building their educational paths in Tanzania

2015

For an increasing number of African girls and women, upgrading the level of education has become a strategy for life improvement. This paper analyses the role that family plays in enabling women's education and contributes to understanding on the interconnectivity of education, work and family in women's lives in collective societies. The analysis focuses on how young Tanzanian women perceive the role of family and education in their ‘youth task’, of becoming adult. The analysis is based on interviews with seven young Tanzanian women enrolled in non-formal secondary education and nine professional women enrolled in higher education. The results show that the women were determined to pursue …

Syrjimätön ja yhdenvertainen opetusviestintä

2020

Yhdenvertaisuuslaki (1329/2014) ja laki naisten ja miesten välisestä tasa-arvosta (1329/2014) velvoittavat koulutuksen järjestäjiä edistämäään yhdenvertaisuutta ja tasa-arvoa ja huolehtimaan koulutuksen järjestäjän tai oppilaitoksen toiminnan syrjimättömyydestä. Tasa-arvon tavoite ja laaja yhdenvertaisuusperiaate ohjaavat myös perusopetuksen kehittämistä (Perusopetuksen opetussuunnitelman perusteet 2014, 16). Kirjallisten yhdenvertaisuus- ja tasa-arvosuunnitelmien lisäksi opettajien opetusviestintää kannattaa tarkastella yhdenvertaisuuden ja tasa-arvon näkökulmasta. nonPeerReviewed

Omaa paikkaa etsimässä : edistyneisyys suomea toisena kielenään puhuvien kokemana

2022

This article takes up a central question of Kirsti Siitonen’s dissertation – how advancedness in Finnish as a second language can be characterized – and investigates it from the perspective of research terminology as well as the lived experience of language users. We first discuss how and with what implications advanced learners of Finnish have been referred to in the research literature, i.e. whether they have been regarded as learners, speakers or other kinds of language users. Applying a small stories approach to interview data from different research projects, we then explore what advancedness means to such language users themselves. We conclude that advanced learners navigate a complex…

2012

In order to enhance the consumption of bitter and strong tasting vegetables such as cabbages and root vegetables, it is required to identify potential mediators of sociodemographic–diet relationships. In this context a consumer field studywas conducted in Denmark which comprised a semi-quantitative food frequency questionnaire, a bitter threshold value test kit with quinineand a preference test with two samples of carrots differing in the degree of bitterness. All tests were conducted outside the laboratory, and the subjects (n=116, aged 18 to 79) were recruited during two different events at two sites in April and June 2011.Data was subjected to multivariate data analysis in order to eluci…

Bridging authentic learning task into technology supported transformative pedagogy in Finnish teacher training

2018

The goal of the Finnish teacher training is to educate autonomous teachers, who have pedagogical competence and theoretical understanding about using ICT in teaching and learning. In this study, we describe teacher students’ pedagogical ICT competence as designers of technology supported learning tasks. The study is based on Hughes’ RAT model, which is a framework for assessing technology integration. The theoretical definition of RAT model is technology as a) replacement, b) amplification or c) transformation. To define this there are three systematical dimensions to analyze a particular technology use: Instructional Methods, Student learning processes and Curriculum Goals. The data consis…

Kustannuskilpailukyky, vaihtotase ja palkkakoordinaatio

2016

Artikkelissa tutkitaan talouden ulkoisen tasapainon ja kustannuskilpailukyvyn välistä yhteyttä sekä sitä, miten palkkakoordinaatio vaikuttaa talouden ulkoiseen sopeutumisnopeuteen. Ulkoisen tasapainon ja kustannuskilpailukyvyn välistä yhteyttä tarkastellaan useampaa eri estimointimenetelmää käyttäen sekä aiemman varsin laajan tutkimuskirjallisuuden pohjalta. Empiiristen tulosten perusteella kustannuskilpailukyvyn ja nettoviennin välinen suhde ei vaikuta erityisen vahvalta. Tämä tulos saa myös osin tukea aiemmasta kirjallisuudesta. Palkkakoordinaation ja ulkoisen tasapainon sopeutumisnopeuden välistä yhteyttä on tutkittu vähemmän. Useampaan eri estimointitapaan pohjautuvat tulokset viittaava…
