Gemurmel und Gebrabbel : Probleme beim Übersetzen von Patrick Süskinds Der Zwang zur Tiefe
2018
Sekä kirjallinen että suullinen kääntäminen on kuulunut ihmisten elämään jo vuosituhansien ajan, ja usein oletetaan, ettei kääntäminen ole kielitaitoiselle ihmiselle haasteellista. Tässä kandidaatintutkielmassa haluttiin tuoda esille käännöstieteen monimutkaisuutta, sekä erityisesti itse kääntämisen ongelmakohtia. Tutkielmaa varten käännettiin Patrick Süskindin novelli Der Zwang zur Tiefe saksasta suomeksi, ja tavoitteena oli esitellä, millaisia ongelmia kääntämisessä ilmeni, ja kuinka näitä ongelmia pyrittiin selvittämään. Käännöstyön aikana ilmenneet moninaiset ongelmat jaoteltiin kuuteen kategoriaan. Käsiteltäviä ongelmia olivat novellin nimen kääntäminen, pronominit, sanasto, onomatopoe…
Utebarnehager – et sted for demokratisk praksis?
2013
The questions in the title is posed to discuss how an outdoor kindergarten space is contextualized and understood by those who are staying there. Nature is often seen as an especially open space, free from strong guidelines and structures. Being part of an educational practice gives the place new structures. The activities the children participate in and the employees expressed attitudes and practices are part of different discourses, which give certain limits or possibilities for what is going on at the Hut, and thus influence a democratic practice. Especially children’s play activities represent an opposition to the adult’s framing of the place. Democracy presupposes some frames, but if t…
Intersoggettività e “prospettiva in seconda persona”: una nuova cornice sulle relazioni educative nei nidi d’infanzia
2017
The article reflects on kindergartens’ specificity, focusing on the intersubjective perspective. By this perspective, the developement and the construction of the Self can’t be separated from the perception of the “other” and it is a process working, since birth, through an “embodied relationship”. According to the infant research and the neurosciences studies, the article analyzes the quality of the relationships between adults and children and explores how it can affect personality development, self-image, and learning processes. Finally, the professional skills necessary for educators in kindergartens are deepened, looking at the needs of the children during their first years.
Lastentarhanopettajat liikunnan suunnittelijoina
2014
Tiivistelmä. Piiroinen, Reetta & Saari, Saila. 2014. Lastentarhanopettajat liikunnan suunnittelijoina. Varhaiskasvatustieteen kandidaatintutkielma. Kasvatustie- teiden laitos. Jyväskylän yliopisto. 50 sivua + liitteet. Tutkimuksemme on tärkeä, koska varhaiskasvatusikäisten lasten liikuntaa on tutkittu vähän. Varhaiskasvatusikäisten lasten liikuntatutkimukset painottuvat lasten aktiivisuuden ja terveysvaikutusten tutkimiseen, joten on hyödyllistä tutkia lastentarhanopettajien toimintaa lasten liikunnan toteuttajina. Tutkimuksemme tavoitteena oli selvittää, miten lastentarhanopettajat suunnittelevat liikuntatuokioita lapsiryhmässä. Tutkimuksen aineistonhankinnan toteutimme tekemällä interneti…
Simple view of reading across the transition from kindergarten to Grade 1 in a transparent orthography
2023
Purpose: This longitudinal study investigated the simple view of reading (SVR) model and its cognitive basis in a transparent orthography of the Lithuanian across the transition from kindergarten to Grade 1. Method: The language and early literacy skills of 229 children (Mage = 6.79, SD = .47) were tested at the end of kindergarten (vocabulary, letter knowledge, phonological awareness, and RAN); listening comprehension and word reading fluency were tested at the start of Grade 1; and reading comprehension was measured at the end of Grade 1. Results: Together with parental education, word reading fluency and listening comprehension predicted reading comprehension (R2 = 43.2%). The second mod…
Kindergarten teachers’ accounts of their developing mathematical practice
2012
Published version of an article in the journal: ZDM. Also available from the publisher at: http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/s11858-012-0422-1 This study explores kindergarten teachers’ accounts of their developing mathematical practice in the context of their participation in a developmental research project. Observations and interviews were analysed to elaborate the accounts as regards orchestrating mathematical activities in the kindergarten. A co-learning agreement was established as collaboration between the kindergarten teachers and researchers. The study reveals that the kindergarten teachers argue that they have been empowered in developing an inquiry stance towards mathematics and mathemat…
Home Literacy Activities and Children’s Reading Skills, Independent Reading, and Interest in Literacy Activities From Kindergarten to Grade 2
2020
According to the Home Literacy Model (Sénéchal and LeFevre, 2002, 2014), young children can be exposed to two distinct types of literacy activities at home. First, meaning-related literacy activities are those where print is present but is not the focus of the parent–child interaction, for example, when parents read storybooks to their children. In contrast, code-related literacy activities focus on the print, for example, activities such as when parents teach their children the names and sounds of letters or to read words. The present study was conducted to expand the Home Literacy Model by examining its relation with children’s engagement in literacy activities at home and at school as Fi…
Epilepsy stages diagnosis by Gabor atom density according to their aspect ratio
2008
During epilepsy seizure Electrocorticogram (ECoG) may change dramatically from a nearly chaotic signal (basal state) into a highly synchronized signal during a seizure, characterized by high amplitude and low frequency, and suddenly go back to the basal sate, making hard to identify them from time series. The epileptic seizure shows some stages as it is evolving, the here studied are: basal, preictal, ictal and posictal. As most of the bioelectrical signal, ECoG is a highly non periodical signal, so the most suitable techniques to analyze them are the Time-Frequency algorithms (T-F), allowing to follow up its frequency evolution through the seizure. Each seizure stage has a set of frequency…
Übergewicht und Adipositas in Kindheit und Jugend
2010
Einführend wird auf wesentliche Entwicklungsaspekte der interessierenden Lebensphasen Kindheit und Jugend eingegangen. Im Anschluss daran werden verschiedene Aspekte von Übergewicht und Adipositas in Kindheit und Jugend thematisiert. Neben der Definition und Diagnostik, wird auf Möglichkeiten der Klassifikation sowie die Epidemiologie eingegangen. Dargestellt werden darüber hinaus körperliche und psychische Folgestörungen, welche mit Adipositas assoziiert sein können. Basierend auf der Annahme einer multifaktoriellen Adipositasgenese, werden die verursachenden bzw. aufrechterhaltenden Faktoren beschrieben. Neben den genetischen und biologischen Risikofaktoren, wird die Bedeutung verschieden…
Effect of Acetaldehyde Intoxication and Withdrawal on NPY Expression: Focus on Endocannabinoidergic System Involvement
2014
Acetaldehyde (ACD), the first alcohol metabolite, plays a pivotal role in the rewarding, motivational and addictive properties of the parental compound. Many studies have investigated the role of ACD in mediating neurochemical and behavioral effects induced by alcohol administration, but very little is known about the modulation of neuropeptide systems following ACD intoxication and withdrawal. Indeed the neuropeptide Y (NPY) system is altered during alcohol withdrawal in key regions for cerebrocortical excitability and neuroplasticity. The primary goal of this research was to investigate the effects of ACD intoxication and withdrawal by recording rat behavior and by measuring neuropeptide …
