Naisrugbynpelaajien kokemuksia kehollisuudesta
2015
Sapattinen, Eveliina. (2015). Naisrugbynpelaajien kokemuksia kehollisuudesta. Liikuntakasvatuksen laitos, Jyväskylän yliopisto, liikuntapedagogiikan pro gradu-tutkielma, 62 s., 3 liitettä. Pro gradu-tutkielmani tarkoituksena oli selvittää naisrugbyn pelaajien kehollisuutta, sille annettujen merkitysten ja kokemusten kautta. Tutkimuksessa selvitetään, millaisia merkityksiä naisrugbynpelaajat antavat kehollisuudelleen, kuinka laji on muokannut kehollisuutta ja kehoja, sekä ajattelua. Rugby on Suomessa melko tuntematon pallopeli, jota pelataan nurmella. Tutkimuksessa on käytetty laadullista tutkimusotetta, jossa kokemuksellisuutta pyritään ymmärtämään fenomenologis-hermeneuttisen tutkimusperin…
Latvijas LGBT kopienas krievvalodīgo jauniešu naratīvi: duālās minoritātes
2022
Maģistra darba tēma ir “Latvijas LGBT kopienas krievvalodīgo jauniešu naratīvi: duālās minoritātes”. Darba mērķis: noskaidrot, vai pašu LGBT kopienas krievvalodīgo jauniešu identitātes ir savstarpēji konfliktējošas, kā arī vai tās ietekmē piederības izjūtu Latvijai un viņu identitāti, dzīvojot valstī, kurā viņi pieder gan pie nacionālās, gan pie seksuālās minoritātes. Darba teorētiskajā daļā tiek apskatīta teorija par nacionālo, etnisko, lingvistisko, seksuālo un homoseksuālo identitāti, kā arī par jauniešiem kā pētījumu auditoriju un pētījumi par krievvalodīgo kopienu Latvijā. Pētījuma daļā tika izmantotas divas metodes – tematiskā naratīvā analīze un kontentanalīze. Balstoties uz iegūtaji…
BusyBee: Low Rate WiFi-ZigBee Communications without Gateways
2014
Nowadays, the overcrowding of ISM bands is becoming an evident limitation for the performance and widespread us- age of 802.11 and 802.15.4 technologies. In this demo, we prove that it is possible to opportunistically exploit the inter- technology interference between 802.11 and 802.15.4 to build an unconventional low-rate communication channel and sig- nalling protocol, devised to improve the performance of each contending technology. Differently from previous solutions, inter-technology communications do not require the deploy- ment of a gateway with two network interfaces, but can be activated (when needed) directly between two heterogeneous nodes, e.g. a WiFi node and a ZigBee node. Thi…
DESIGNING AND IMPLEMENTING A BIG OPEN ONLINE COURSE BY USING A 3D VIRTUAL IMMERSIVE ENVIRONMENT – LESSONS LEARNED
2017
Open Education (OE) is a distance learning approach that was strategically chosen by the European Commission (EC) to encourage cost-effective training, upskilling and reskilling of large population groups and workforce with speed and flexibility. Institutions and businesses design and offer Open Online Courses (OOCs) to address skill gaps, organizational and societal needs. OOCs and especially Massive OOCs (MOOCs) are suffering from high rates of attrition, which is attributed to various factors such as learner isolation and lack of motivation to complete the course. Recommendations to address the retention gap in MOOCs include adopting a participation-driven approach, using game design tec…

Queer Male (Post)Soviet Narratives in Interviews by Rita Ruduša and Fiktion by Klāvs Smilgzieds
2015
One culture within a culture is the culture of LGBT people in Latvia or, to use a contemporary designation, queer culture. In Latvia, queer culture is still practically invisible. In this paper I will analyse two types of queer narratives: documentary life stories collected by Rita Rudusa in her book Forced Underground (2012) and the manuscript of a collection of 12 short stories by Klāvs Smilgzieds (2014), originally published serially during the 1990s in an under ground Latvian gay magazine. Both types of texts employ different emphasis talking about queers in Soviet and post-Soviet life. Rudusa’s interviews reflect on the situation of being in the closet and on fear and loneliness, while…
STUDIES OF VARIABILITY IN PROTO-PLANETARY NEBULAE. II. LIGHT AND VELOCITY CURVE ANALYSES OF IRAS 22272+5435 AND 22223+4327
2013
We have carried out a detailed observational study of the light, color, and velocity variations of two bright, carbon-rich proto-planetary nebulae, IRAS 22223+4327 and 22272+5435. The light curves are based upon our observations from 1994 to 2011, together with published data by Arkhipova and collaborators. They each display four significant periods, with primary periods for IRAS 22223+4327 and 22272+5435 being 90 and 132 days, respectively. For each of them, the ratio of secondary to primary period is 0.95, a value much different from that found in Cepheids, but which may be characteristic of post-asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars. Fewer significant periods are found in the smaller radia…

Evaluación de la situación actual y elaborar una planificación educativa racional de la provincia de Valencia, municipio a municipio, en los niveles de Educación Preescolar y General Básica, en función de las variables demográficas, geográficas, socioeconómicas y educativas y de su incidencia en la consideración de las necesidades escolares proyectadas al futuro. Compuesta por la población de 0 a 16 años de la provincia de Valencia de 1970, 1975 y 1980. Tras un análisis geográfico, socioeconómico, demográfico y de la Educación Preescolar y de EGB en la provincia se pretende realizar, basado en el modelo REA-85: un modelo de proyección de población para la obtención de las tasas de escolariz…
Hard to catch: Experimental evidence supports evasive mimicry
2021
Most research on aposematism has focused on chemically defended prey, but the signalling difficulty of capture remains poorly explored. Similar to classical Batesian and Müllerian mimicry related to distastefulness, such ‘evasive aposematism' may also lead to convergence in warning colours, known as evasive mimicry. A prime candidate group for evasive mimicry areAdelphabutterflies, which are agile insects and show remarkable colour pattern convergence. We tested the ability of naive blue tits to learn to avoid and generalizeAdelphawing patterns associated with the difficulty of capture and compared their response to that of birds that learned to associate the same wing patterns with distast…
