Reflections on co-teaching multilingual university-level language and communication courses

2021

Tässä narratiivisessa kuvauksessa tarkastelemme kokemuksiamme yliopistotason monikielisten viestintä- ja kieliopintojen opettamisesta useamman opettajan yhteisillä opintojaksoilla Jyväskylän yliopistossa. Suomen viralliset kielet ovat suomi ja ruotsi, ja useimmat oppivat englantia ensimmäisenä vieraana kielenä koulussa. Jyväskylän yliopiston viestintä- ja kieliopinnoissa nämä kolme kieltä sisältyvät samaan monikieliseen opintojaksoon. Opintojaksot suunnitellaan yhdessä ilmiöpohjaisiksi monikielisiksi opintojaksoiksi, joita ovat esim. akateemisen lukutaidon, monikielisen vuorovaikutuksen ja tutkimusviestinnän opintojaksot. Käytännössä “...opiskelijat saattavat lukea akateemisia tekstejä engl…

From innovation to labour costs : Change of emphasis in Finnish competitiveness policy ideas after the Eurocrisis

2018

Small open economies such as Finland are particularly exposed to international market competition. In this article, Finland is analysed as a competition state where the pursuit of international advantages is a policy priority. Previously, Finland has been argued to be an exemplar of an economy following a strategy of radical transformation via creatively utilizing corporatist institutions instead of relying mainly on liberal reforms. In the 1990s, Finnish policymakers adopted policy ideas that emphasize technological change, innovation and education as a means to competitive edges and pursued these goals in a coordinated manner. This allowed Finland to adopt an export-led growth model and s…

The Development and Precision of a Custom-Made Skitester

2021

In the sport of cross-country skiing, equipment has a direct influence on results. Ski teams do extensive testing of different ski base grinds and products on a yearly basis. To achieve reliable results, the quality of methods used for testing skis needs to be taken in to account in addition to factors including the physical characteristics of testing personnel and changes in weather conditions. The aim of this study was to introduce a custom-made skitester, that was developed for testing skis on real snow, in laboratory conditions, and to evaluate its precision. The current skitester is capable of glide testing both classic and skate skis as well as kick simulation for the testing of grip …

Partycypacja na siłę i jej nieoczekiwane konsekwencje: państwowy socjalizm a nowoczesna klasa robotnicza

2016

W artykule omawiane są przemiany społeczne w Polsce, przyniesione przez państwowy socjalizm po drugiej wojnie światowej. Opierając się na założeniu o „prześnionej rewolucji” (Leder 2014), argumentuje, że metody, którymi ówczesne władze mobilizowały ludzi do działania, nosiły znamiona partycypacji społecznej, choć w wielu przypadkach była to partycypacja inspirowana, a nawet wymuszona. Jako element mobilizacji społecznej przyczyniła się do uprawomocnienia klas niższych – robotników i chłopów. Skutkiem tego procesu była zdolność tych klas do podjęcia dyskusji z decydentami, dzięki czemu początkowi „beneficjenci” socjalizmu nie tylko byli w stanie sprzeciwić się aparatowi partyjnemu i przyczyn…
