Onko osaamisella sukupuoli?
2001
Työn sukupuolen mukainen jako vallitsee kaikkien Euroopan maiden työ- ja koulutusmarkkinoita. Ammatillista osaamista ja sukupuolta koskevat käytännölliset ja tieteelliset keskustelut kohtaavat kuitenkin harvoin. Artikkeli kuvaa kansainvälistä tutkimusta, jossa selvitetään osaamisen sukupuolittumista ja sen ylittämisen mahdollisuuksia työpaikkojen ja oppilaitosten kasvatuskäytännöissä. Suomalaisten tutkimushaastattelujen alustavassa luennassa niin miehet kuin naiset pitävät osaamisia sukupuolettomina. Syvempi tulkinta edellyttää osaamis- ja gender-diskurssien kriittistä hyödyntämistä.

2018
Mahdollisuudet siirtyä ammatillisesta koulutuksesta jatko-opintoihin korkea-asteelle erottelevat Pohjoismaisia koulutusjärjestelmiä. Artikkelissa vertaillaan neljän Pohjoismaan, Suomen, Ruotsin, Norjan ja Tanskan nuorten ammatillisen koulutuksen väyliä tästä näkökulmasta: miten ne mahdollistavat siirtymät korkea-asteelle. Artikkeli liittää aluksi kysymyksen jatko-opintoihin siirtymisen mahdollisuuksista laajempaan kansainväliseen keskusteluun elinikäisestä oppimisesta, minkä jälkeen luonnehditaan lyhyesti pohjoismaisten korkeakoulujärjestelmien eroja. Sen jälkeen tarkastellaan ammatillisen koulutuksen järjestelmiin eri Pohjoismaissa tehtyjä reformeja ja niiden vaikutuk…

Data were gathered by an Internet questionnaire of final-year students at vocational institutes in the City of Helsinki (N=1282). The questionnaire was answered by 41 % of the students. In general, students were satisfied with connecting school-based and work-based learning and guidance in v…

Field-Specific Educational Practices as a Source for Students' Vocational Identity Formation
2008
Although work-related identity research has undergone considerable expansion in recent years, vocational identity among students remains a neglected area. However, initial vocational education plays a crucial role in the process of lifelong learning. Accordingly, this chapter discusses students' vocational identity formation during their vocational education and training. As recent findings on vocational or professional identity emphasise its context-based or sociocultural construction, [the authors] examined students' vocational identity formation in two different fields: one) technology and transport, and two) social services and health care. [The authors'] quantitative data indicate that…
