How does university teachers’ pedagogical training meet topical challenges raised by educational research? A case study from Finland
2023
Through a literature review, this study identified research themes related to university pedagogy and examined how these themes appear in the curricula of university pedagogy courses and in the experiences of the participants and trainers of these courses at a Finnish research university. The literature review produced a multidimensional model of the relationships between identified themes, which can be used as an analytical tool for examining pedagogical training. Analysis of the courses revealed a need to broaden the understanding of the course contents and practices and their alignment to global, societal, and labour-market needs. peerReviewed

Compromiso Estudiantil en el Contexto Universitario Colombiano y Desempeño Académico
2014
20 páginas A pesar de la ampliación de la cobertura en la educación superior latinoamericana, persisten graves problemas de deserción que llevan a cuestionar el papel de las experiencias educativas en el fomento del compromiso académico de los estudiantes. Esta investigación se realizó en Colombia y buscó determinar la relación que existe entre el compromiso estudiantil y el desempeño académico de un grupo de universitarios colombianos. El estudio transversal y correlacional empleó la versión en español de la encuesta National Survey of Student Engagement (NSSE) que mide el nivel de participación de los estudiantes en cinco dimensiones: reto académico, aprendizaje activo y colaborativo, int…
Following the money? : Performance based funding and the changing publication patterns of Finnish academics
2020
Research on how performance-based funding influences the behaviour and performance of academics is limited in Europe. In this study, we investigate the changing publication patterns among Finnish academics associated with the introduction of awarding funding for publications within specific journals in the national performance-based funding model. We find evidence, particularly in the social sciences, and to a lesser extent humanities, that Finnish academics increasingly target international (English-language) publication outlets and lower-tiered journals. We conclude discussing the possible long-term implications of the current funding formula for both Finnish academia and society. peerRev…
Sodan pojat : sodanaikaisten pikkupoikien lapsuuskokemuksia isyyden näkökulmasta
2003
Erkki Kujalan yhteiskuntapolitiikan väitöskirjan mukaan sota vaikutti kielteisesti isyyteen. Miesten ollessa vuosikausia sodassa heillä ei ollut aikaa tai mahdollisuutta olla lastensa kanssa, mistä johtuen isä-poika-suhde jäi usein etäiseksi. Kujala tutki väitöskirjassaan sota-ajan pikkupoikien, nyt yli 60-vuotiaiden miesten, kokemuksia sodasta, sen vaikutuksista isyyteen ja sitä kautta suomalaisen miehen tunne-elämään.Monetkaan miehet eivät muistele kaikkia sota-ajan kokemuksia pahalla, sillä puute ja lapsena töihin joutuminen opetti heidät kekseliäiksi ja selviytymään vaikeissakin tilanteissa. Sota opetti myös yhteisvastuuta ja yhteistyötä, sillä tuolloin oli tavallista, että naapurit kan…
The 2.0 tourist as recipient of touristic promotion: linguistic strategies and importance of its study
2012
El turista/viajero es cada vez más quien gestiona sus viajes a través de Internet. El término turista 2.0, denomina a este nuevo agente. Por ello, las webs turísticas han de tener en cuenta ciertos mecanismos y estrategias lingüísticas y visuales que cumplan el objetivo de los géneros de promoción: la persuasión. Estas estrategias lingüísticas se construyen mediante funciones retóricas como la descripción, la ejemplifi cación, la sugerencia, etc., así como la interpersonalidad, función discursiva que designa la relación entre emisor y receptor del texto a través de marcadores, sujeta a variaciones lingüísticas y culturales y que modaliza la persuasión. Será, pues, necesario el análisis de e…
Anglotic: English Phonology
2010
El propósito de este proyecto es ofrecer a los estudiantes del grado de Estudios Ingleses y otras personas interesadas en la lengua inglesa la oportunidad de perfeccionar su pronunciación del inglés y/o aprender acerca del sistema fonológico del inglés. This project offers students doing a degree in English and anyone interested in the English language the opportunity to perfect their pronunciation of English and/or to learn about the phonological system of English.
Deregulated Copper Transport Affects Arabidopsis Development Especially in the Absence of Environmental Cycles
2010
Abstract Copper is an essential cofactor for key processes in plants, but it exerts harmful effects when in excess. Previous work has shown that the Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) COPT1 high-affinity copper transport protein participates in copper uptake through plant root tips. Here, we show that COPT1 protein localizes to the plasma membrane of Arabidopsis cells and the phenotypic effects of transgenic plants overexpressing either COPT1 or COPT3, the latter being another high-affinity copper transport protein family member. Both transgenic lines exhibit increased endogenous copper levels and are sensitive to the copper in the growth medium. Additional phenotypes include decreased hypo…

Characterization and transcription studies of a phytochelatin synthase gene from the solitary tunicate Ciona intestinalis exposed to cadmium.
2014
The major thiol-containing molecules involved in controlling the level of intracellular ROS in eukaryotes, acting as a nonenzymatic detoxification system, are metallothioneins (MTs), glutathione (GSH) and phytochelatins (PCs). Both MTs and GSH are well-known in the animal kingdom. PC was considered a prerogative of the plant kingdom but, in 2001, a phytochelatin synthase (PCS) gene was described in the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans; additional genes encoding this enzyme were later described in the earthworm Eisenia fetida and in the parasitic nematode Schistosoma mansoni but scanty data are available, up to now, for Deuterostomes. Here, we describe the molecular characteristics and transc…
