Throwaway knowledge, useful skills or a source for wellbeing? Outlining sustainability of workplace learning situations
2020
Rapid changes in working life have raised awareness of the need for lifelong learning among personnel, and there is increasing concern regarding the sustainability of such learning, especially in growth companies, where learning can be seen as a prerequisite for many work practices. Hence, the aim of this study is to understand the sustainability of learning situations from the perspectives of individual wellbeing, widespread use of previous knowledge and rapid application of new knowledge. We broaden the understanding of workplace learning from the perspective of sustainability by identifying different workplace learning situations and outlining the sustainability of these situations. Two …
Fysioterapiatyön ydinosaaminen akuuttisairaalassa fysioterapeuttien arvioimana
2017
Osaamisen arviointi on tärkeä osa terveysalan laatua. Fysioterapeuttien itsearvioidut näkemykset fysioterapian työn osa-alueiden osaamisesta tukevat ammatillisen laadun kehittymisen prosessia. Itsearvioinnin päätarkoituksena on kehittää ammatillista osaamista läpi työuran ja tämän kautta taata potilaille laadukas fysioterapia sekä mahdollistaa fysioterapeuttien uran eteneminen. Tutkimuksia fysioterapeuttien ydinosaamisesta on tehty, mutta siitä tarvitaan yhä lisätutkimusta. Tämän tutkimuksen tarkoituksena oli selvittää fysioterapeuttien näkemyksiä fysioterapian työn osa-alueiden osaamisesta akuuttisairaalassa itsearvioinnin avulla. Tarkoituksena oli tutkia, kuinka ikä, sukupuoli, koulutusta…
Changing landscape in professional development : narrative research from the physiotherapy students' perspective
2018
Physiotherapy students construct their professional development gradually in a socio-cultural process between school and working life in the health care sector. The Health Care Professionals Act 559/1994 and National Qualification Framework (NQF) define the legislative basis and education for physiotherapists in Finland. The European Qualification Framework (EQF) defines the learning outcomes in education and they focus on what knowledge, skills and competences the learner has acquired by the end of the learning process, but it does not identify how outcomes are achieved. The aim of this study is to investigate and understand physiotherapy students’ stories about their professional developm…
Un témoignage sensible, la parole du chrétien selon le pape François
2016
International audience; Si le pape François montre un intérêt soutenu pour les médias afin d’informer le plus largement de l’actualité de l’Église catholique, il s’en remet à d’autres modalités pour transmettre la Parole. Le chrétien annonce le message à travers sa manière d’être chrétien ; c’est tout le sens de la notion de « témoignage » dans l’acte de dire la Parole. À partir d’un corpus de textes pontificaux du pape François, l’intention de cette réflexion est de questionner cette manière chrétienne d’être au monde, plus précisément dans l’espace public, et d’être à l’autre en explorant conjointement deux voies : (i) le soubassement sensible d’une pratique énonciative faite de comportem…

W artykule opisany został projekt edukacyjno-socjalny pt. ,,Siła kobiet", skierowany do matek dzieci z niepełnosprawnością. Projekt miał tez charakter naukowo-badawczy, którego nadrzędnym celem było poznanie procesu uczenia się z biografii. Intencją autorki było zaprezentowanie działań realizowanych podczas projektu, które miały umożliwić jego uczestniczkom zaobserwowanie procesu uczenia się z własnej biografii w kontekście niepełnosprawności swojego dziecka. W pierwszej części artykułu zamieszczony został teoretyczno-metodologiczny opis projektu i jego metodyczne podstawy. W części analitycznej zaprezentowane zostały fragmenty transkrypcji w odniesieniu do teorii uczenia się sytuacyjnego i…
Age of Information Based URLLC-enabled UAV Wireless Communications System
2022
This paper considers an unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) communication network, where UAV operate as an aerial mobile relay between a source and a destination of the network. To capture the “timelines” of the received information at the destination node, a new performance metric named age of information (AoI) is considered. In addition, a short packet communication scheme maintains low latency in the proposed UAV wireless communication system. The finite block-length theory investigates the performances of short packet communications scheme in the UAV-assisted wireless communications system. In this paper, the Average Age of Information (AAoI) is estimated by applying the Stochastic Hybrid Sy…
Una Guernica di mare. “Esodi” & “Origami” di Massimiliano Scuderi
2018
L’articolo prende in esame due dipinti incentrati sui temi dell’immigrazione e della chiusura dei porti realizzate dall’artista palermitano Massimiliano Scuderi: Esodi (2018) e Origami (2018), al fine di ragionare sulla situazione odierna che vede geograficamente alcune terre e alcuni porti più esposti e coinvolti di altri in fatto di accoglienza, soccorso e solidarietà, ma che, per via di certe scelte politiche, si negano quali culture della condivisione, dell’accoglienza, dell’incontro, della connessione e della solidarietà prescrivendo il rifiuto degli immigrati. Il saggio evidenzia il potere che ha il linguaggio artistico di essere trasversale nel tempo e nello spazio, di farsi testimon…
Deconstruction and hermeneutical space as keys to understanding the rural
2020
The purpose of this article is to complement the existing literature on defining the rural by suggesting a novel approach that makes possible a holistic understanding of the rural. The proposed approach is based on deconstruction of the concept of the rural and on hermeneutical philosophy. The current approaches applied in rural studies are evaluated through the lens of holistic understanding, and solutions to the observed problems are discussed. The problems of current rural studies stem from inadequate conceptualization and biased social theory. The conceptual problems can be alleviated, firstly, by understanding the concept of space not only literally but also figuratively. Secondly, the…
Alteration-Induced Volcano Instability at La Soufrière de Guadeloupe (Eastern Caribbean)
2021
International audience; Volcanoes are unstable structures that deform laterally and frequently experience mass wasting events. Hydrothermal alteration is often invoked as a mechanism that contributes significantly to volcano instability. We present a study that combines laboratory experiments, geophysical data, and large-scale numerical modeling to better understand the influence of alteration on volcano stability, using La Soufrière de Guadeloupe (Eastern Caribbean) as a case study. Laboratory experiments on variably altered (advanced argillic alteration) blocks show that uniaxial compressive strength, Young's modulus, and cohesion decrease as a function of increasing alteration, but that …
