Internationalization of Finnish higher education — is language an issue?
2012
Finland is among the countries with the highest amount of English-taught programmes in higher education in Europe (Wächter and Maiworm 2008). This article analyses, how the higher education language situation of a small country with a marginal majority language (Finnish) and an official bilingual status (Finnish and Swedish) has historically developed from the setting of “drawing the line” between Finland and Sweden or Finland and Russia (Harle and Moisio 2000) in the 19th century and the early 20th century (nationalism), towards drawing the line between Finnish/Swedish and English in the late 20th century (globalization). It then continues to present a case of foreign language (in practice…
Towards more learning-centred English-medium education: promoting the combination of backward design and community of practice in teacher training
2022
Purpose Teaching in English-medium education (EME) requires mastery of content and ability to teach in a multilingual setting, but also pedagogical expertise and didactic agility. However, there is an apparent lack of proper training of EME teachers, who are typically experts of their field, but not necessarily equipped to design and implement EME. Moreover, there is still an evident gap with respect to understanding how EME teachers turn curricula into actual teaching and students’ learning. By addressing this gap, the present study provides recommendations for EME teacher training. Approach Finland, with its long EME traditions, was the present study’s context. Data saturation, i.e. adequ…

La ejemplaridad de la muerte y la inmortalidad del saber en la literatura sapiencial medieval
2022
El origen escriturario de la muerte como castigo es el punto de partida de su ejemplaridad que, basada en presupuestos teológicos, le imprimió un halo de penitencia, que se perfila en todos los órdenes de actuación y convivencia del ser humano, en aras de conseguir el perdón y retornar a la gracia divina. En este trabajo se analizan los diferentes motivos que proyectan la ejemplaridad de la muerte en el ámbito de la literatura sapiencial: muerte física y muerte espiritual; trascendencia y sentencia del alma; el hecho maravilloso (milagros, premoniciones, relevaciones o visiones); el miedo (y lo macabro) ligado al arquetipo de la muerte transida y sus plasmaciones en variados tópicos (mement…
School grades as predictors of self-esteem and changes in internalizing problems: A longitudinal study from fourth through seventh grade
2020
This longitudinal study of 562 students (from ages 10 to 13) investigated whether developmental changes in internalizing problems (emotional and peer problems) can be predicted by school grades in mathematics and language arts and whether these predictive relations are mediated by students' self-esteem. The data comprised of teacher-rated internalizing problems, grades in math and language arts, and student self-ratings of self-esteem. The latent change score modeling indicated that math grades positively predicted self-esteem. Furthermore, lower self-esteem was related to an increase in internalizing and emotional problems in the total sample, and to an increase in peer problems in boys. T…
