The light, the dark, and everything else : making sense of young people's digital gaming

2023

Whether gaming has a beneficial or detrimental effect on young people's lives is a defining feature in both the research and the public discussion of youth digital gaming. In this qualitative study, we draw from a thematic analysis of the experiences of 180 game players in Finland, aged 15–25 years. Utilizing the digital gaming relationship (DGR) theory, we explore how different aspects of gaming actualize in their lives, and how different features of gaming culture participation come together to form their experience. We contend that framing gaming as a balancing act between beneficial and detrimental obscures much of the complexity of young people's gaming, reinforces a partially false di…

"Ois hienoa jos kaikki ois sähköisessä muodossa" : digital self-revising material for adult language learners

2015

Tämän kandidaatintutkielman tarkoituksena oli selvittää onko aikuisille kohdistetulle digitaaliselle itseopiskelumateriaalille tarvetta. Tällä hetkellä edistyneemmille aikuisopiskelijoille ei ole olemassa itsekertausmateriaalia. Aikuiskoulutusta on vasta viime vuosina alettu tutkia tarkemmin ja olemassa oleva kirjallisuus aiheesta on hyvin yleisellä tasolla ja keskittyy lähinnä iän tuomiin haasteisiin opiskelussa sekä nuorten ja aikuisten eroavaisuuksien tarkasteluun oppimisen näkökulmasta. Aikuisten itsenäistä kielten opiskelua ei ole aikaisemmin juurikaan tutkittu. Jo olemassa olevat tutukimukset aiheesta ovat hyvin yleispiirteisiä sekä pysyttelevät usein teoreettisella tasolla. Tämän vuo…

Digitalization in the regional context: the case of e-government services in Latvia

2018

This methodological approach could serve as a tool for integrating a number of main goals related to the digitalisation trends in the EU, that require support of societies as well as the improvement of social welfare at the regional and national levels. The contribution aims to offer insight into the concept of social investment and innovation as well as co-creation concept and the impact of digitalisation of public services on regional cohesion.…

L’articolo, dedicato all’attività del gruppo WASP di cui Massimo Moretti è il fondatore, evidenzia come sia possibile conciliare l’avanzamento tecnologico con la creazione di un Paradiso in Terra: una società equa, ecocompatibile, scientificamente evoluta, totalmente open source. Questa non è utopia. È quello che sta accadendo grazie a progetti che rispondono concretamente ai bisogni fondamentali dell’uomo: Cibo, Rifugio, Salute, Energia, Lavoro, Cultura. Il caso WASP è indice di un cambiamento in atto. È un concentrato di tecnologia futuribile applicata in direzione sociale. È anche la dimostrazione lampante di come una visione etica sia praticabile all’interno di una logica aziendal…

Artificial Intelligence in Medicine: Today and Tomorrow

2020

Artificial intelligence-powered medical technologies are rapidly evolving into applicable solutions for clinical practice. Deep learning algorithms can deal with increasing amounts of data provided by wearables, smartphones, and other mobile monitoring sensors in different areas of medicine. Currently, only very specific settings in clinical practice benefit from the application of artificial intelligence, such as the detection of atrial fibrillation, epilepsy seizures, and hypoglycemia, or the diagnosis of disease based on histopathological examination or medical imaging. The implementation of augmented medicine is long-awaited by patients because it allows for a greater autonomy and a mor…
