The Role of Social and Collaborative Networks in the Development of in-House Multimedia Language Learning Materials
2012
The development of in-house language learning materials has being going on for many decades. In the past, it was difficult for language teachers worldwide to share their in-house materials with other teachers, and so was having access to the materials developed by others. This often produced a feeling of isolation and, very frequently, provoked a duplication of efforts and a bigger investment of time. However, thanks to the Web 2.0 teachers and practitioners worldwide can communicate with each other and share experiences and materials.

Deliberatiivinen demokratia ja julkisuus internetissä : näytösluonteisesta julkisuudesta avoimeen politiikkaan
2008
Tutkimuksen tehtävänä on selvittää, kuinka länsimaisen demokratian kriisiä pyritään ratkaisemaan osallistamalla kansalaisia enemmän päätöksentekoon internetin avulla. Internet tarjoaa mahdollisuuden kriittis-rationaaliseen kansalaiskeskusteluun ja poliittiseen osallistumiseen. Tarkastelen ilmiötä sekä hallinnon että kansalaisyhteiskunnan näkökulmasta. Teoreettisena viitekehyksenä käytän Jürgen Habermasin julkisen sfäärin käsitettä, Hannah Arendtin julkisuus-käsitystä sekä deliberatiivisen demokratian teoriaa. Tarkoituksena on tarkastella erilaisia demokratiakäsityksiä ja verrata niitä deliberatiivisen demokratian teoriaan. Tarkastelen modernia demokratiaa julkisuuden, julkisen tilan ja virt…
