Rhizomatic Target Audiences of the Cyber Domain
2016
Target Audience Analysis (TAA) is a process of finding suitable target audiences for psychological operations (PSYOPS). Typically, a TAA is a one-way process with some kind of a feedback system. The cyber domain presents a challenge to this type of sequential, linear process by refusing to stay still while the process is being executed, possibly leading to results from yesterday’s data in an environment that no longer exists today. Another challenge is that identifiable human beings—the traditional targets of PSYOPS—are not the only inhabitants of the cyber domain. Physical devices, nicknames, IP addresses, networks, and a vast amount of data populate this environment, in which there are no…
Developing social competence and other generic skills in teacher education : applying the model of integrative pedagogy
2016
The purpose of the study was to examine how social competence and other generic skills can be developed in teacher education using a pedagogical model called Integrative Pedagogy. This model is based on the idea of integrating the four basic components of expertise: Theoretical knowledge, practical knowledge, self-regulative knowledge, and sociocultural knowledge. The subjects of the study were 95 student-teachers. The data were collected with questionnaires. In addition to social skills, the student-teachers reported learning of domain-specific skills, generic academic skills, skills for acting creatively in different situations and development of independence. We conclude that the model o…
Understanding adults’ strong problem-solving skills based on PIAAC
2017
Purpose Research has shown that the problem-solving skills of adults with a vocational education and training (VET) background in technology-rich environments (TREs) are often inadequate. However, some adults with a VET background do have sound problem-solving skills. The present study aims to provide insight into the socio-demographic, work-related and everyday life factors that are associated with a strong problem-solving performance. Design/methodology/approach The study builds on large-scale data of the Programme for the International Assessment of Adult Competencies (PIAAC) and gives insight into VET adults (N = 12,929) with strong problem-solving skills in 11 European countries. Find…
Impact of Si on the high-temperature oxidation of AlCr(Si)N coatings
2022
The resistance of wear protective coatings against oxidation is crucial for their use at high temperatures. Here, three nanocomposite AlCr(Si)N coatings with a fixed Al/Cr atomic ratio of 70/30 and a varying Si-content of 0 at.%, 2.5 at.% and 5 at.% were analyzed by differential scanning calorimetry, thermogravimetric analysis and X-ray in order to understand the oxidation behavior depending on their Si-content. Additionally, a partially oxidized AlCrSiN coating with 5 at.% Si on a sapphire substrate was studied across the coating thickness by depth-resolved cross-sectional X-ray nanodiffraction and scanning trans-mission electron microscopy to investigate the elemental composition, morphol…
Miten vuorovaikutusleikki tukee lapsen sosiaalisia taitoja vuoropäiväkodissa?
2006
Vuorovaikutusleikkiä ja ryhmätheraplayta päivähoidossa : päiväkotien ja erityispäivähoidon henkilökunnan näkemyksiä ja kokemuksia ohjaamastaan toimin…
2010
Tutkimuksessa kartoitettiin kasvattajien ajatuksia, näkemyksiä ja kokemuksia vuorovaikutusleikki- / ryhmätheraplay-menetelmästä ja sen ohjaamisesta. Samalla selvitettiin menetelmän soveltuvuutta päivähoidon ja erityispäivähoidon henkilöstön käyttöön. Menetelmää ohjattiin päiväkodeissa ja kasvattajat ohjasivat ryhmiä päiväkotien lapsille. Tutkimusongelmat olivat 1) Miten ja miksi menetelmä soveltuu päiväkodin arjessa toteutettavaksi? 2) Miten menetelmää toteutetaan päiväkotien lapsiryhmissä? 3) Minkälaisia kokemuksia kasvattajilla on menetelmän mukaisesta lapsiryhmien ohjaamisesta ja menetelmän käyttöön kouluttautumisesta? Tutkimukseen osallistui 18 päivähoidon ja erityispäivähoidon kasvatta…
Depth profiling of Al2O3+ TiO2 nanolaminates by means of a time-of-flight energy spectromete
2011
Atomic layer deposition (ALD) is currently a widespread method to grow conformal thin films with a sub-nm thickness control. By using ALD for nanolaminate oxides, it is possible to fine tune the electrical, optical and mechanical properties of thin films. In this study the elemental depth profiles and surface roughnesses were determined for Al2O3 + TiO2 nanolaminates with nominal single-layer thicknesses of 1, 2, 5, 10 and 20 nm and total thickness between 40 nm and 60 nm. The depth profiles were measured by means of a time-of-flight elastic recoil detection analysis (ToF-ERDA) spectrometer recently installed at the University of Jyväskylä. In TOF-E measurements 63Cu, 35Cl, 12C and 4He ions…
Luovat ja taidelähtöiset menetelmät lastenkodin arjessa : ohjaajan ja lapsen vuorovaikutustapojen rikastaminen
2016
Tämän tutkielman tarkoituksena on edesauttaa vuorovaikutusta rikastavien, luovien ja taidelähtöisten menetelmien käyttöä lastensuojelun sijaishuollossa, jossa tehdään monipuolisia kohtaamisen tapoja edellyttävää ihmissuhdetyötä. Tutkimuksen viitekehys rakentuu sosiaalisia piirteitä korostavista taiteen kehityssuunnista. Tutkimuksessa käsitellään muun muassa dialogisen taiteen teoriaa sekä taidelähtöiseen toimintaan liittyvää esteettistä etääntymistä ja mahdollisuuksille avointa tilaa. Tutkimus on lähtökohdiltaan laadullinen tutkimus, jonka ihmis- ja tiedonkäsitys perustuu fenomenologis-hermeneuttiseen perinteeseen. Tutkimusstrategiana on toimintatutkimus, jossa tutkimuksen osat ovat muotout…
A one-year follow-up of basic psychological need satisfactions in physical education and associated in-class and total physical activity
2020
This study examined basic psychological need satisfactions for competence, autonomy, and social relatedness in physical education (PE) and their contributions to accelerometer-based in-class and total moderate to vigorous physical activity (MVPA) across a one-year follow-up (T1). Participants were 523 students (girls 280, boys 243; mean age = 11.26 ± 0.31) and the data were collected using self-reports and waist-worn accelerometers. The key findings were: (a) competence and social relatedness need satisfaction at baseline (T0) predicted total MVPA at T1 via total MVPA at T0; (b) in-class MVPA at T0 predicted total MVPA at T1 via total MVPA at T0; (c) in-class MVPA was directly associated w…
