Formazione Service e-Learning: esperienza media-educativa
2023
The use of technology is an interesting device, which constitutes a useful self-training approach, related to an experience, from which to extract significant materials and traces of their personal learning. In Italy, Service Learning (SL) projects that use digital media in the university environment are still rare and therefore there are not many data and research results related to the introduction of SL in the training of future teachers. On the contrary, at the international level we find a vast scientific literature on SL and its applications, also in the academic field. Service e-Learning (Se-L) can in fact represent an essential approach for university education, which allows student…
A learning experience like no other : The significance of student exchange for language students at the University of Jyväskylä
2010
Tutkielman tarkoituksena oli selvittää, mikä merkitys opiskelijavaihdolla on Jyväskylän yliopiston kielten opiskelijoille. Aikaisemmat tutkimukset ovat osoittaneet, että vaihto-opiskelun aikana saadut oppimiskokemukset ovat opiskelijoille hyvin monipuolisia, ja niillä on niin henkilökohtaisia kuin ammatillisiakin vaikutuksia. Aikaisemmat tutkimukset ovat keskittyneet yleisesti yliopisto- tai korkeakouluopiskelijoihin, mutta tarkkaa katsausta opiskelijavaihdon hyödyistä kielten opiskelijoille ei ole tehty. Tämän tutkielman tarkoituksena oli kartoittaa Jyväskylän yliopiston kielten opiskelijoiden näkemyksiä vaihto-opiskelusta ja kansainvälistymisestä, odotuksista ennen vaihtoa ja vaihdossa s…
Meaningful Learning Experiences in the Finnish Teacher Education
2017
During the last few years the change of the school and how the school should change in the first place to meet the challenges of the future have been discussed a great deal.

The multidisciplinary learning modules promote the reaching of the objectives set for the basic education and in particular, the development of the cross-disciplinary competences.This research was carried out in a Finnish class teachers' adult…
Self-Efficacy and Study Burnout Among IT Students : Challenges and Potentials
2022
There is a risk of student dropout in the field of engineering, particularly in the domain of information technology. To find novel pedagogical and technological solutions to prevent student attrition, we must better understand student experiences regarding their learning and studying processes. This study was conducted within the introduction of a new engineering degree program at the University of Jyväskylä and focused on first-year students. The research questions are: How do IT students experience study burnout at the beginning of their studies? What kind of self-efficacy beliefs do IT students have at the beginning of their studies? How are the self-efficacy beliefs of IT students asso…

On developing adaptive vocabulary learning game for children with an early language delay
2018
Vocabulary replenishment is an ordinary child development process. Deviations in this process can significantly affect the further progress and perception of the educational material in the school. A hypothesis was proposed that the similarity of words on various factors can influence the child's understanding. To test this hypothesis in this work, we propose the development of AdapTalk game for children. This game is concentrated on learning words, in the context of animals. The game will create the basis for further testing the influence of the semantic similarity of words for the child. This work describes the development background, the basic principles of calculating the semantic simil…
Comparing Different approaches - Data mining, Geostatistic, and Deterministic pedology - to assess the Frequency of WRB reference soil groups in the …
2014
Estimating frequency of soil classes in map unit is always affected by some degree of uncertainty, especially at small scales, with a larger generalization. The aim of this study was to compare different possible approaches - data mining, geostatistic, deterministic pedology - to assess the frequency of WRB Reference Soil Groups (RSG) in the major Italian soil regions. In the soil map of Italy (Costantini et al., 2012), a list of the first five RSG was reported in each major 10 soil regions. The soil map was produced using the national soil geodatabase, which stored 22,015 analyzed and classified pedons, 1,413 soil typological unit (STU) and a set of auxiliary variables (lithology, land-use…
