Isolation, culture and plant regeneration from mesophyll protoplasts of Digitalis obscura

1987

High yields of protoplasts were obtained from mesophyll tissue of Digitalis obscura L. Osmotic potential of the isolation medium and Ca2+ were important in obtaining a high viability of the preparations. In different culture techniques employed, liquid-over-agar-solidified medium was superior to liquid medium alone. Agar plating technique was ineffective. On Murashige and Skoog modified medium with casein hydrolysate and several indoleacetic acid and benzyladenine combinations, isolated protoplasts underwent sustained mitotic division and produced calli. The calli formed shoots when transferred to regeneration media. Regenerated shoots could be easily rooted and developed into whole plants …

Digital Solutions in the Forest-Based Bioeconomy

2019

This chapter aims to illustrate the potential and significance of forest-based industry to take the lead in the sustainable development of the bio-based economy under digitalization. The digital solutions are transforming the forest-based industry by enabling the real-time end-to-end supply chain visibility, stock level optimization, demand planning, and real-time order status tracking and transparent, speedy, and hassle-free order fulfillment. In addition, increasing diversification corresponds to eco-consciousness, and shift in people’s preferences induces the transformation of forest-based bioeconomy into a digital platform industry. Further, this chapter will highlight the circular econ…

Digitalisering - hot eller möjlighet? : svensklärares erfarenheter av digitaliseringen på gymnasiet

2017

Uudet opetussuunnitelmat otettiin sekä Suomen peruskouluissa että lukioissa vaiheittain käyttöön syksystä 2016 lähtien. Niiden aikaansaama keskustelu on ollut vilkasta, ja kaiken kaikkiaan opetuksen muutokset ovat yhteiskunnan digitalisoitumisen myötä olleet erittäin yleinen puheenaihe. Tämän tutkimuksen tarkoituksena oli selvittää sähköistymisen vaikutuksia lukion opetukseen ruotsinopettajan näkökulmasta. Tavoitteena oli kartoittaa opettajien omia näkemyksiä ja kokemuksia sähköistymisestä sekä opetuksen sisällön muuttumisesta sähköistymisen ja uuden opetussuunnitelman myötä. Tutkimuksen aineisto kerättiin ryhmähaastattelun avulla. Haastateltavana oli kolme ruotsinopettajaa, joilla on kokem…

Understanding the challenges of rapid digital transformation : the case of COVID-19 pandemic in higher education

2021

Rapid digital transformation is taking place due to the COVID-19 pandemic, forcing organisations and higher educational institutions to change their working and learning culture. This study explores the challenges of rapid digital transformation arising during the pandemic in the higher education context. This research used the Q-methodology to understand the nine challenges that higher education encountered, perceived differently as four main patterns: (1) Digital-nomad enterprise; (2) Corporate-collectivism; (3) Well-being-oriented; and (4) Pluralistic. This study broadens the current understanding of digital transformation, especially in higher education. The nine challenges and four pat…

Barriers and wellbeing-oriented enablers of intergenerational innovation in the digital age

2021

AbstractSo far, researchers have used a wellbeing-centered approach to catalyze successful intergenerational collaboration (IGC) in innovative activities. However, due to the subject’s multidisciplinary nature, there is still a dearth of comprehensive research devoted to constructing the IGC system. Thus, the purpose of this study is to fill a research void by providing a conceptual framework for information technology (IT) system designers to use as a jumping-off point for designing an IGC system with a wellbeing-oriented design. A systematic literature study was conducted to identify relevant terms and develop a conceptual framework based on a review of 75 selected scientific papers. The …

Introduction

2022

Digital technologies shape our embodied lives and affect our knowledge of the self and the world. The introductory chapter of the book presents the state of the art in the research on digitalisation of health and social care work, with a focus on care for older people. In ageing societies, understanding what it takes to introduce and use digital technologies can pave the way to a successful, sustainable, and equally accessible system of social care and healthcare provision for older people. The chapter discusses some of the limitations in the present discussion and how the book at hand aims to address these gaps. The chapter proposes that living in an increasingly digitalised world requires…

Older Adults Learning Digital Skills Together: Peer Tutors’ Perspectives on Non-Formal Digital Support

2023

In later life, digital support is predominantly received outside of formal education from warm experts such as children, grandchildren, and friends. However, as not everyone can rely on this kind of informal help, many older adults are at risk of being unwillingly left without digital support and necessary digital skills. In this article, we examine non-formal digital support and peer tutoring as a way to promote digital and social inclusion through the acquisition of necessary digital skills. First, we ask: (a) What is peer tutoring, in the field of digital training, from the peer tutors’ point of view? Then, based on the first research question, we further ask (b) what are the key charact…
