Data from: Genetic relationships, structure and parentage simulation among the olive tree (Olea europaea L. subsp. europaea) cultivated in Southern I…

2013

In this work, we assess both the morphological and genetic diversity of 68 important olive cultivars from three Southern Italian regions: Calabria, Campania and Sicily. Twenty-five phenotypic traits were evaluated and 12 simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers were analysed. All SSR primers were polymorphic and reliable. The total number of alleles per locus varied from 5 to 19 with an average number of 13.1 and a mean polymorphic information content (PIC) of 0.81. These results suggested high genetic diversity within these three olive germplasm collections. Morphological traits also showed significant variability amongst cultivars. Two cases of identity were found and ten statistically signif…

Teaching Technology Usage in the ENT Medical Subdomain via a Flipped Classroom Approach

2018

The flipped classroom approach is supporting a continuous interaction of students and instructors via online communication and strengthens the ability to solve problems by self-organization. This is especially important in medical domains, like the one of ENT-Head/Neck (ENT: Ear-Nose-Throat) surgeries and treatment. Surgical corrections of the nasal airways, like FESS (Functional Endoscopy Sinus Surgery) or in the field of plastic surgery, are the second frequent surgical interventions in otorhinolaryngology. They have to be prepared very carefully and airflow simulation with Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) is gaining importance for diagnostics here. New in silico procedures, like imagin…

Academic competence, teacher–student relationship, and violence and victimisation in adolescents: The classroom climate as a mediator

2021

School violence is a serious social and public health problem prevalent worldwide. Although the relevance of teacher and classroom factors is well established in the literature, few studies have focused on the role of teacher perceptions in school violence and victimisation and the potential mediational role of classroom climate in this relationship. A total of 2399 adolescents (50% girls), aged between 11 and 18 years (M = 14.65, SD = 1.78) and enrolled in five Spanish Secondary Compulsory Education schools completed measures of classroom climate, school violence towards peers and perception of peer victimisation, and their teachers informed about their academic competence and the teacher&…

Is It Possible to Produce Certified Hazelnut Plant Material in Sicily? Identification and Recovery of Nebrodi Genetic Resources, in vitro Establishme…

2021

Eight Sicilian cultivars of hazelnut (Corylus avellanaL.), namely-Curcia, Nociara Collica, Panottara Collica, Panottara Galati Grande, Parrinara, Panottara Baratta Piccola, Enzo, and Rossa Galvagno, registered into the Italian Cultivar Register of fruit tree species in 2017 were selected from Nebrodi area and establishedin vitro. The aim of the work was to carry out the sanitation of the cultivars and get virus-free plants from the most important viral pathogen threat, theapple mosaic virus. Virus-free plant material is essential for the production of certified plants from Sicilian hazelnut cultivars, complying the CE (cat. CAC) quality and the technical standards established in 2017 for vo…

Ābeļu (Malus x domestica (L.) Borkh) izturības pret kraupi (Venturia inaequalis (Cooke) Wint.) iedzimtība hibrīdajā selekcijas materiālā, veicot gēnu…

2018

Ābeles ir komerciāli nozīmīgs kultūraugs visā pasaulē, bet ik gadu nozīmīgus bojājumus rada patogēnās sēnes Venturia inaequalis izraisītais ābeļu kraupis. Kraupja ierobežošana pārsvarā balstīta uz intensīvu un regulāru pesticīdu izmantošanu, tādējādi radot negatīvu ietekmi uz vidi un cilvēku veselību. Alternatīva ir izveidot kraupja rezistentas ābeļu šķirnes. Jau novērots, ka monogēna rezistence pret kraupi nav ilgnoturīga un to varētu uzlabot, iekļaujot vairākus rezistences gēnus vienā auga genotipā jeb gēnus piramidējot. Darba mērķis bija novērtēt un raksturot mājas ābeles (Malus × domestica ) izturības pret kraupi (ier. Venturia inaequalis.) iedzimtību un selekcijas procesa efektivitāti …

Sprachlernspiele im DaF-Unterricht : Einblick in die Spielpraxis des finnischen und ungarischen Deutsch-als-Fremdsprache-Unterrichts in der gymnasial…

2009

The goal of this study is to analyze and compare aspects of language learning games in the context of Finnish and Hungarian high-school teaching of German as a foreign language (GFL). First, the practices of using games in GFL are investigated. Secondly, the subjective theories of teachers on language learning games are analyzed. Thirdly, the differences between the Finnish and Hungarian contexts are discussed.The data for this study was gathered with a written questionnaire (48 Finnish, 49 Hungarian GFL teachers) and through semi-standardized interviews (8 Finnish, 5 Hungarian GFL teachers). In addition, Hungarian and Finnish national curricula are analyzed. Through triangulation, both qua…

Digitaalisiin peleihin perustuva oppiminen luokkahuoneessa

2016

Maailman muuttuessa digitaalisemmaksi koulu ja sen käyttämät menetelmät ovat muuttumassa. Yksi uusi menetelmä voisi olla digitaalisiin peleihin perustuva oppiminen (DGBL). Tässä tutkielmassa käydään läpi, mikä tämä uusi oppimisen muoto on, ja mitä hyötyjä tai haittoja siihen liittyy. Lisäksi selvitetään erilaisia tapoja, miten pelejä on jo käytetty erilaisissa tutkimuksissa. Tutkielmassa tulee esille, että DGBL:ssä on monenlaisia ongelmia, kuten oppilaiden tottumattomuus tietoteknisiin välineisiin ja peleihin. Eduiksi havaitaan muun muassa pelien luontainen motivaation kasvatus sekä pelien tutkimista ja ongelmanratkaisua kannustavat menetelmät. Esimerkeissä huomataan, että pelejä voidaan kä…

Motivational strategies as perceived and implemented by future L2 teachers : a comparison of two groups of Finnish university students

2012

Motivaatiotutkimus on vuosikymmeniä keskittynyt motivaatioon oppijan näkökulmasta luoden erilaisia motivaatioteorioita. Motivaatio on erittäin tärkeä tekijä vieraan kielen oppimistulosten selittäjänä, joten viime vuosikymmenellä kiinnostuttiin myös käytännön toimista, joita opettaja voi toteuttaa parantaakseen oppilaiden motivaatiota luokkahuoneissa. Näitä toimia kutsutaan motivointistrategioiksi. Tulevien vieraiden kielten opettajien käsitykset ja kokemukset motivointistrategioista Suomessa olivat lähes tutkimaton aihe, joten kyseinen näkökulma otettiin tähän tutkimukseen. Tutkimuksen tarkoituksena oli määrällisten menetelmien avulla saada käsitys tulevien opettajien yleisestä tietoisuudes…

‘Because I point to myself as the hog’ : interactional achievement of moral decisions in a classroom

2016

Abstract Drawing on the conversation analytic and sociocultural perspectives, this study investigates children's situated moral negotiations in classroom peer interaction in the absence of a teacher. The conversation analytic methodology is used to operationalise some of the key elements of the sociocultural perspective on moral development. In this way, this study enables readers to observe and study the semiotic, conversational and interactional mediations of moral functioning in real life, with the example of children's moral practices. The empirical analysis is based on video-recorded sequences in which primary school children work with the rules of a counting rhyme which is banned by t…
