Performance Improvement of a Drag Hydrokinetic Turbine
2021
Hydropower is at present in many locations, among all the other possible renewable energy sources, the best one for net cost per unit power. In contrast to traditional installation, based on water storage in artificial basins, free flow river turbines also provide a very low environmental impact due to their negligible effect on solid transport. Among them, kinetic turbines with vertical axis are very inexpensive and have almost zero impact on fish and local fauna. In application to tidal waves and sea waves, where vertically averaged velocities have alternate direction, a Savonius rotor also has the advantage of being productive during the whole time cycle. In this work, the effect of an u…
Microencapsulation of Enteric Bacteriophages in a pH-Responsive Solid Oral Dosage Formulation Using a Scalable Membrane Emulsification Process
2019
A scalable low-shear membrane emulsification process was used to produce microencapsulated Escherichia coli-phages in a solid oral dosage form. Uniform pH-responsive composite microparticles (mean size ~100 µ
Pienryhmäohjaajien vertaisryhmä andragogisessa koulutuksessa
2014
Erilaisten yhteistyön muotojen, vuorovaikutuksen ja jakamisen merkitystä korostetaan tutkimuksissa, mutta opettajien ja ohjaajien kollegiaalisen tuen muotoja ei juurikaan edistetä rakenteellisin tai organisatorisin keinoin. Vertaistuki vahvistaa ohjaajien työssä kehittymistä ja jaksamista sekä koulutuksen kehittämistä.

Adults learning Finnish as a foreign language : role of support, emotions and reasons connected with learning
2015
The purpose of this research study was to examine adults learning Finnish as a foreign language while striving to understand the reasons behind their decisions to do so, the support that was individually offered to the participants, how they felt throughout the learning process, and whether or not they found themselves to be self-reliant learners, as per Knowles’ andragogy theory. This study set out to examine adult language learners participating in the language and integration program at Palapeli2 project and in the Suomi 2 language course at the Open University. Through a two part (in the beginning and completion of the course) qualitative interview process, a total of eight learners wer…
Terveystieteiden opettajan andragoginen käsikirja 2019
2019
Tämä Terveystieteiden opettajan andragoginen käsikirja on syntynyt lukuvuonna 2018-19 terveystieteiden opettajiksi opiskelleiden Tutkiva ja kehittävä opettajuus -opintokokonaisuuden töistä. Terveystieteiden opettajien ydinosaamista ovat kehollisuus ja liikkumisen ohjaaminen (Teema 1). Opettajan oma asiantuntijuus on oleellista tiedostaa, ja usein monitieteisissä ja monialaisissa tiimeissä on osattava myös kertoa omasta osaamisestaan. Tästä hyvänä esimerkkinä on Jyväskylän koulutuskuntayhtymä Gradian, Keski-Suomen Liikunnan ja Jyväskylän yliopiston yhteistyössä kehittämä paikallinen ammatillisen koulutuksen valinnainen tutkinnonosa. Opettajaopiskelijoiden kehittämistehtävissä muutos ja tulev…
“At least we have something to discuss over lunch…” The implications for knowledge management when implementing a new library system. A Norwegian exp…
2017
This article investigates how staff and management in Norwegian academic libraries have experienced the implementation of the new library management system Alma. As a new library management system is introduced, the need for learning on demand emerges. An anonymous survey was sent to all academic libraries in Norway, resulting in a total of 626 responses. This article presents the findings from this survey and provides some reflections on how a firm grip on knowledge management could have helped make such a transition easier.

Il G20 del 2021 e l'Italia: mantenere vivi i sogni?
2022
Italy’s presidency of the G20 defied the odds and resulted in costly commitments by the members on a range of issues: global health, climate change, a minimum global tax, and the crisis in Afghanistan. Italy’s prime minister, Mario Draghi, was certainly a factor. The global context was also important, with the new Biden administration in the US leading a group of countries seeking multilateral solutions to pressing international problems.
The 2021 G20 and Italy: keeping our dreams alive?
2022
Italy’s presidency of the G20 defied the odds and resulted in costly commitments by the members on a range of issues: global health, climate change, a minimum global tax, and the crisis in Afghanistan. How can we explain this success? Italy’s prime minister, Mario Draghi, and his extensive prior experience and widespread respect was certainly a factor. The global context was also important, with the new Biden administration in the US leading a group of countries seeking multilateral solutions to pressing international problems.
