From investing to saving in education : principals and educational savings
2017
In autumn 2015, it was announced that the government would execute massive budget cuts to education. This was due to the efforts of the new government to save money and balance the state economics. The amount of money that the state intended to save from the basic education, also known as primary and lower secondary schools nationwide was estimated to be around 40 million euros. 30 million euros out 40 million euro savings was from group size money and 10 million of development money. Money directed to group sizes has been used by the schools to downsize the class and group sizes. The developing money on the other hand is for the development of the schools, for example to modernize equipmen…
Planning, implementing and evaluating social and emotional skills course for coaches
2015
ABSTRACT Antell, Sanna. 2015. Planning, implementing and evaluating social and emotional skills course for coaches. Master’s Thesis in Sport and Exercise Psychology. Department of Sport Sciences. University of Jyväskylä. 79 pages. Research on Social and Emotional Skills among sport coaches is limited. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to plan, implement and evaluate a course in Social and Emotional Skills for sport coaches and instructors. The aim was to study the learning processes and the experiences of the participants. Traditionally coaches in martial arts lead with an authoritarian style; consequently the aim of this course was to show a different way of interacting with trainee…
Usability and emotional obstacles in e-learning
2007
Emotions are important in interaction and open a vital perspective to e-learning. E-learning courses have higher dropout rates than the traditional courses taught in classrooms, and it seems logical to ask whether emotional processes could explain a part of them. This research investigates how emotions are involved in students’ behavior during e-learning courses. As human emotions are not independent of human cognitions and appraisal, we also consider here how cognitive difficulties affect emotional stances in e-learning on the ground of feedback collected from an e-learning course. However, here the main focus of emotion relevant cognitive processes is related to competence and usability. …
Safety Evaluation of Turbo-Roundabouts with and without Internal Traffic Separations Considering Autonomous Vehicles Operation
2021
The paper presents a microsimulation approach for assessing the safety performance of turbo-roundabouts where Cooperative Autonomous Vehicles “CAVs” have been introduced into the traffic mix alongside conventional vehicles “CVs”. Based on the analysis of vehicle trajectories from VISSIM and subsequent analysis of traffic conflicts through the Surrogate Safety Assessment Model (SSAM), the research aims to evaluate the safety benefits of turbo-roundabouts where the lanes are physically separated by raised curbs, compared to roundabouts without such curbs. The paper will then describe the methodological path followed to build VISSIM models of turbo-roundabouts with and without raised curbs in …
Masquerader detection in mobile context based on behaviour and environment monitoring
2007
Mobiilipäätelaitteiden, matkapuhelimien ja kämmentietokoneiden yleistymisen myötä riski näiden laitteiden väärinkäytölle on kasvanut. Matkapuhelimia ja kämmentietokoneita varastetaan ja hukataan koko ajan. Tällöin on mahdollista laitteen päätyminen henkilölle, joka voi käyttää laitetta luvattomasti. Luvattoman käytön estämiseksi on syntynyt tarve turvajärjestelmälle, jonka avulla voidaan varmistaa, että mobiilipäätelaitetta käyttävällä henkilöllä on oikeus laitteen käyttöön.Mazhelis kehitti väitöskirjassaan menetelmää, jonka avulla mobiilipäätelaitteen laillinen käyttäjä erotetaan muista henkilöistä. Tähän pyritään käytön aikaista toimintaa ja toimintaympäristön informaatiota analysoimalla.…
La edad pupilar y la mayoría de edad en la Valencia medieval
2012
The present work considers the study and the juridical consequences of the transition from minority to adulthood in the former Kingdom of Valencia. More specifi cally, it addresses issues such as the necessary presence of the tutor or guardian of the minor, his juridical incapacity or the prohibitions to which they were subjected. Regarding adulthood, the focus is primarily on the so-called benefi t of the age and its application in the contractual sphere.<br><br>El presente trabajo aborda el estudio y las consecuencias jurídicas del tránsito de la edad pupilar a la mayoría de edad en el antiguo Reino de Valencia. En concreto, con relación al menor se abordan cuestiones como la …
Students' problems in the identification of subspaces in Linear Algebra
2018
International audience; The goal of the study presented in this paper is the investigation of students' problems with exercises concerning central topics of linear algebra courses at university level. We present the results of our analysis of students' work on an exercise about subspaces of . We evaluated the written solutions of the task as well as transcripts based on videos taken of student groups working on the problem. We identified and classified descriptions of vector spaces and subspaces that varied widely and demonstrated highly different skills in working with geometric or formal algebraic objects. We analyzed how far students could progress in a complex reasoning process, and ide…
Type-2 intuitionistic fuzzy TODIM for intelligent decision-making under uncertainty and hesitancy
2022
AbstractThe classical TODIM considers the crisp numbers to handle the information. However, in a real-world applicative context, this information is bounded by noise and vagueness and hence uncertain. There are wide range of works in the literature which utilizes fuzzy sets to handle the uncertainty in the various dimensions. However, there is a constraint of hesitancy in such decision-making problems due to the involvement of various decision-makers. Also, in the TODIM method, decision-maker’s bounded rationality and psychological behavior are also taken into consideration which adds up the hesitation and considers the problem with higher dimension of uncertainty. There are various applica…
Processus d'évaluation de l'extension de marque par le consommateur : conception et validation d'un modèle de décomposition
2004
International audience; L'objectif de cet article est de montrer qu'il existe, au-delà du transfert de valeur de la marque, un transfert de valeur dû au produit en extension dans l'évaluation de l'extension de marque. Sur la base de la confrontation de trois champs de recherche rarement associés et complémentaires, nous proposerons le recours à deux déterminants de l'évaluation de l'extension de marque : le fit association et le fit contexte. Dans le cadre d'une étude empirique dans le domaine alimentaire, nous mettrons en évidence la supériorité du pouvoir explicatif de ces indices par rapport à la typicalité ainsi que le rôle modérateur de l'expertise. Les implications de l'étude sur l'ex…
Éléments pour une typologie des séquences de texte technique
1992
Rapport de contrat; Nous nous intéressons ici à l'activité de lecture dans un cadre particulier. Cette activité est essentiellement cognitive. Nous tentons d'appréhender le phénomène de la mise en relief tant au moment de la production de texte qu'à celui de la représentation que le lecteur se construit de ce qui est dit par le texte. Dans le cadre de ce compte rendu nous nous limiterons volontairement à l'aspect typologie textuelle le versant expérimental de notre recherche sera abordé ultérieurement dès lors que les bases de notre travail seront bien établies.
