Finnish EFL learners' perceptions on errors, corrective feedback and foreign language anxiety

2012

Virheiden merkitys vieraiden kielten oppimisessa on tunnustettu aina 1970-luvulta lähtien, jolloin virheet alettiin nähdä välttämättömänä osana kielen ja sen sääntöjen oppimista. Virheiden tekemiseen vieraan kielen opiskelussa liittyy oleellisena osana opettajan oppijoille antama korjaava palaute (corrective feedback). Opettajan ja oppilaan vuorovaikutuksen, jota korjaava palaute osaltaan edustaa, on kuitenkin todettu voivan aiheuttaa oppijoissa ahdistuneisuutta ja pelkoa (anxiety). Tässä tutkielmassa kartoitetaan, millaisia suullisia virheitä suomalaiset yhdeksäsluokkalaiset englannin kielen oppitunneilla tekevät ja miten noloina he niitä pitävät. Tarkoituksena on myös selvittää, miten he …

Fake it 'till you make it : helping foreign language trainee teachers use ICT confidently

2017

Tieto- ja viestintäteknologia (TVT) on nyky-yhteiskunnassa erittäin tärkeässä osassa, ja jokaisen kansalaisen tulee omata tarvittavat taidot tietoyhteiskunnassa selviämiseen. Näitä tietoja ja taitoja opetellaan perusopetuksessa ja varsinkin uuden opetussuunnitelman myötä niitä tulisi opettaa osana kaikkia oppiaineita. Siten myös vieraiden kielten opettajien tulee kyetä käyttämään TVT:tä osana opetustaan. Moni opettaja kokee tarvitsevansa tukea näiden taitojen kehittämiseen, ja varsinkin juuri valmistuneet opettajat ja opettajaopiskelijat eivät koe saavansa riittävää koulutusta teknologian käsittelyyn ja sen käyttöön vieraiden kielten opetuksessa. Tämän tutkielman tarkoituksena on tarjota ta…

Institutional logics and social enterprises: Entry mode choices of foreign hospitals in China

2020

When social enterprises, being defined by their social mission and profitability, internationalize, they need to\ud respond to institutional logics in the host country. By juxtaposing institutional logic and entry mode choice\ud literature, this paper shows how social enterprises accommodate different institutional logics when they enter\ud foreign markets. We collected data on Chinese healthcare reform, governmental policies and their changes, and\ud conducted 36 in-depth interviews and three expert group meetings. By analyzing five non-Chinese hospitals\ud entering China, we show how social enterprises, as hybrid organizations, respond to governmental, commercial,\ud and social institutio…

”I’ll get a scooter if my grades go up” : What motivates Finnish pupils to study English

2009

     Yleisesti tiedostetaan motivaation merkitys kielenoppimisessa. Motivaatio onkin yksi tutkituimmista alueista vieraiden kielten oppimisessa ja opettamisessa. Motivaation rakenne ja syyt vaihtelevat suuresti riippuen kontekstista; eri paikoissa eri aikoina suoritetut tutkimukset antavat hyvin erilaisia tuloksia. Siksi motivaatiota on tärkeätä tutkia jatkuvasti. Tässä tutkimuksessa motivaatio on jaettu kahteen osaan: instrumentaaliseen ja integratiiviseen motivaatioon. Halusimme tutkia, kumpi näistä motivaation osa-alueista vaikuttaa enemmän 9-luokkalaisiin englanninkielen opiskelijoihin. Sen lisäksi halusimme antaa oppilaille mahdollisuuden kertoa omin sanoin, millaisten asioiden he koke…

History Matters: Colonial‑Based Connectivity and Foreign Headquarter Location Choice

2022

AbstractIn this study, we argue that European countries’ extensive relationships with former colonies represent a location factor that attracts foreign headquarter investments. The strategic role of foreign headquarters as coordinators, opportunity detectors, and global bridgeheads makes the location choice of headquarter activities sensitive to historical-based institutional connections. Drawing on a sample of 2230 foreign headquarter investments in Europe, we find that the stronger the combined effect of historical connections and current economic relationships with former colonies, the higher the probability of attracting headquarter investment projects. We refer to this combined charact…

The European External Action Service: Torn apart between several principals or acting as a smart 'double-agent'?

2014

Published version of an article in the journal: Journal of Contemporary European Research. Also available from the publisher at: http://www.jcer.net/index.php/jcer/article/view/605/494 Open Access The European External Action Service (EEAS) is a hybrid and compound institutional actor in the EU’s multi-level administration with delegated authority from the member states (MS) to conduct the EU’s external action. Substantial competences, notably in the field of Neighbourhood and Trade policies, as well as Development and Cooperation remain under the control of the European Commission (Commission). At the same time, also Members of the European Parliament (EP) are more clearly voicing their in…

De-Europeanizing at the UN? The Impact of the International Economic Crisis on Italian Foreign Policy

2015

Among the mechanisms identified in the literature on the Europeanization of Italian foreign policy, the idea of belonging to a group or "we-feeling" plays an important role. By shaking the idea of European solidarity, the international economic crisis has promoted greater Euroscepticism in Italy, suggesting that the previously recorded Europeanization of Italian foreign policy could eventually also be affected. The article explores whether and how much Italian foreign policy has been de-Europeanized by comparing Italian behavior at the UN before and after the crisis. This arena has the advantage of allowing an analysis of behavior on the most important foreign policy issues, but it is also …

A “Principle-Based” Approach to Intervention by Invitation in Civil Wars

2019

This contribution challenges the idea of the existence of a one-size-fits-all rule that always prohibits or permits outside forcible intervention upon the request of a government engaged in a civil war. Civil wars are complex situations. It seems quite unrealistic to make abstractions of the “topography” of the conflict between the legal principles concretely at stake in each case. Indeed, if self-determination is the main rationale behind the thesis of strict-abstentionism, an important question to ask is whether self-determination always represents an obstacle to external intervention in civil wars to support the established government. Furthermore, the principle of negative equality is s…
