Transversal Competences for Employment and Profile of Excellent University Students
2014
Abstract The relationship between the field of training -university- and the working environment is absolutely essential. The university must train its students to satisfy the needs of society, to build knowledge and to develop critical thinking but it cannot elude the commitment to prepare competent professionals. This paper shows the growing interest in researching on the labour insertion of graduates. The concept of competence is analysed and the differences between generic and specific competences are studied. The generic or transversal competences proposed by the Tuning project and other studies are delimited. Such competences, considered as key competences for employment, are contrast…
The Essential Competencies of Software Professionals : A Unified Competence Gate Framework
2022
Context Developing high-quality software requires skilled software professionals equipped with a set of basic and essential software engineering competencies (SEC). These competencies and the satisfaction levels derived from them change over a project's lifecycle, or as software professionals move from one project to another. Objective Previous studies suggest a lack of means enabling SEC stakeholders to identify and assess competencies suitable for different projects. Additionally, previous research has mainly portrayed SEC to be static and overlooked their evolution over time and across projects. We investigate how we could effectively identify and match the competencies of software profe…

Culture and kultur - what is the difference, or is there any? : a comparative analysis of cultural content in English and Swedish textbook series for…
2012
Vieraiden kielten opettaminen on vuosikymmenten myötä muuttunut yhä kommunikatiivisempaan suuntaan ja oppimisteorioissa on alettu kritisoimaan kielioppikeskeisyyttä, minkä myötä kielten opetuksen keskiöön on jo vuosien ajan ollut nousemassa kulttuuri ja kulttuurien välinen viestintä. Yhä useammat tutkijat ja kielenopetuksen asiantuntijat ovat sitä mieltä, että kulttuuri kuuluu olennaisena osana kielten opetukseen ja tämä onkin otettu huomioon myös uusimpien opetussuunnitelmien laadinnassa. OPS:n suuntaviivoja noudattavia kielten oppikirjoja kohtaan on täten muodostunut uusia odotuksia: niiden oletetaan tukevan myös oppilaiden kulttuurien välisen kompetenssin kehittymistä. Koska oppikirjoill…

Practical applications of naturalistic inquiry in intercultural education
2021
In recent years, the field of intercultural communication has seen a remarkable shift characterized by a growth in publications that distance themselves from the traditional, essentialist understanding of culture. In research, this shift is reflected in approaches that appreciate culture-in-action instead of taking culture for granted as a stable entity that pre-exists social interaction and predicts as well as explains human behavior. However, despite attempts to introduce differentiated views on culture and interculturality in education, concrete options for critical intercultural training are scarce and often remain abstract, which makes their application challenging. This article argues…
