Miksi työmarkkinoiden ja kielikoulutuksen tarpeet eivät kohtaa?
2012
Luopumalla eri kielten lokeroajattelusta ja omaksumalla uudenlainen näkemys kielten opiskeluun tuotettaisiin suurempaa kielitaitohyötyä niin työelämässä kuin sen ulkopuolellakin. Language for Jobs työryhmä on etsinyt ratkaisuja kielitaitotarpeiden ja kielikoulutuksen tarjonnan kohtaamisen ongelmiin.
Suomalainen korkeakoulutus kriisissä?
2005
”Voi liioittelematta sanoa, että kaikki suomalaiset yliopistot kuuluvat ’maailmanluokan’ yliopistoihin. Mistä siis nousee Jorma Rantasen ja Anne Brunilan raporteissa esitetty ehdotus luoda Suomeen muutama ’maailmanluokan’ yliopisto, joiden ohella olisi kansallisen tai maakunnallisen tason opinahjoja? Kysymys näyttäisi olevan koulutuspolitiikan suunnan muutosyrityksistä kohti markkinatalouden kilpailuun perustuvaa arvomaailmaa”, kirjoittaa professori Jussi Välimaa.
How emotions are considered crucial on an omnichannel banking environment in gaining customer loyalty
2018
Emotions have been studied in a marketing context for years. However, the rapid change of digital channels and customers’ omnichannel behavior emphasize the need to further investigate how emotions are considered to play role in customer satisfaction and through that to customer loyalty. Purpose of this chapter is to study emotions in omnichannel environment, and their contribution to customer loyalty, especially in the context of retail banking. peerReviewed
The Finnish success in Pisa - and some reasons behind it : 2 Pisa 2003
2007
The success of Finnish students in PISA has been a great joy but at the same time a somewhat puzzling experience to all those responsible for and making decisions about education in Finland. At a single stroke, PISA has transformed our conceptions of the quality of the work done at our comprehensive school and of the foundations it has laid for Finland's future education and development of knowledge. Thanks to PISA, Finnish schools and school practices have suddenly been brought into the focus of international attention. Why are Finnish students performing so well? What is the secret behind the Finnish success? In this publication, we as the researchers responsible for the implementation of…

Impact of wheat straw decomposition on successional patterns of soil microbial community structure
2009
International audience; The dynamics of indigenous bacterial and fungal soil communities were followed throughout the decomposition of wheat straw residue. More precisely, such dynamics were investigated in the different soil zones under the influence of decomposing wheat straw residue (i.e. residues, soil adjacent to residue = detritusphere, and bulk soil). The genetic structures of bacterial and fungal communities were compared throughout the decomposition process long by applying B- and F-ARISA (for bacterial and fungal-automated ribosomal intergenic spacer analysis) to DNA extracts from these different zones. Residue decomposition induced significant changes in bacterial and fungal comm…
What drives customer satisfaction and well-being in ridesharing? : A developing country perspective
2019
This study examines ridesharing services from the customer perspective in a developing country context and investigates two significant post-adoption and marketing consequences: satisfaction and well-being. Using a purposeful sampling technique, six semi-structured in-depth interviews were conducted in Sindh province, Pakistan. Among the major findings are that customers’ awareness of the services and how to use the mobile application, convenience of use, high perceived value, the quality of information available in the ridesharing mobile app, real-time location services, and an effective complaint resolution mechanism promote customer satisfaction and well-being. This study includes implic…
Digital competence across boundaries - beyond a common Nordic model of the digitalisation of K-12 schools?
2021
This paper explores policy related to digital competence and the digitalisation of Nordic K-12 schools. Anchored in some key transnational policies on digital competence, it describes some current Nordic movements in the national policies of Denmark, Finland, Norway and Sweden. The concept of boundary objects is used as an analytical lens, for understanding digital competence as a plastic and temporal concept that can be used to discuss the multi-dimensional translation of this concept in these Nordic countries. The paper ends with a discussion of the potential to view digital competence as a unifying boundary object that, with its plasticity, temporality and n-dimensionality, can show sign…
Regulation of bacterial and fungal MCPA degradation at the soil–litter interface
2010
Abstract Much is known about mechanisms and regulation of phenoxy acid herbicide degradation at the organism level, whereas the effects of environmental factors on the performance of the phenoxy acid degrading communities in soils are much less clear. In a microcosm experiment we investigated the small-scale effect of litter addition on the functioning of the MCPA degrading communities. 14 C labelled MCPA was applied and the functional genes tfdA and tfdAα were quantified to characterise bacterial MCPA degradation. We identify the transport of litter compounds as an important process that probably regulates the activity of the MCPA degrading community at the soil–litter interface. Two possi…
