Successful crisis communication in the public sector : communication experts' views on best practices and quality

2011

Crisis communication measurements have been adopted in many Finnish public sector organizations in past few years, but there has been a little research about how effective the plans and the measurements made are. Focus of this research is to define public sector communication experts’ views on best practices behind crisis communication and clarify how they evaluate quality in crisis communication in the public sector. The aim of the study is also to see the comparison between the theory and the views that the public sector experts have. The study is part of the international research “Developing a Crisis Communication Scorecard, coordinated by the Communication department of University of J…

A Case For a Study Quality Appraisal in Survey Studies in Psychology

2019

The lack of replication of key effects in psychology has highlighted some fundamental problems with reporting of research findings and methods used (Asendorpf et al., 2013; Open Science Collaboration, 2015). Problems with replication have been attributed to sources of bias such as questionable research practices like HARK-ing (Kerr, 1998) or p-hacking (Simmons et al., 2011). Another potential source of bias is lack of precision in the conduct and methods used in psychological research, which likely introduces systematic error into data collected with the potential to affect results. A related issue is lack of accuracy in reporting study methods and findings. There is, therefore, increased r…

Genealogy of the Ethics of Teacher Self-Evaluation

2022

Quality evaluation (QE) has assumed major importance in governing education. QE is acknowledged as a self-evident and necessary method of improving quality in education across education systems. Along with the quality ‘evaluation wave’, schools and teachers have not only become objects of evaluation, but have also been subjected to increasing demands to self-evaluate. Using genealogical methodology, this chapter analyses the emergence and formation of the politics of school and teacher self-evaluation and also the power and subjectivities invoked through it in the case of Finnish comprehensive education. The research material includes curricular, legislative and education policy texts and n…

Why open educational resources repositories fail : the contribution of quality approaches to the success of repositories

2016

Over the last two decades, millions of Open Educational Resources (OER) have become freely available for teachers and learners online. These resources are usually accessible through Learning Object Repositories (LORs), which are databases with a user interface. LORs are rarely used to their full potential and often considered as ‘failures’. Previous studies have shown that quality has a critical role in the success of information systems such as LORs. However there are no common guidelines for quality assurance approaches for LORs, nor are there studies into the contribution made by different LOR quality assurance approaches to the success of a repository. Measuring quality and success have…

Esiopetuksen laatu

2012

Tämä esiopetuksen laadun arviointi perustuu opetus- ja kulttuuriministeriön toimeksiantoon. Sen keskeiset arviointikohteet ovat esiopetuksen saavutettavuus, tavoitteiden, tasa-arvon ja yhdenvertaisuuden toteutuminen, lasten kasvu-, kehitys- ja oppimisedellytysten edistäminen sekä esiopetuksen oppimis- ja kasvuympäristön laatu. Lääninhallitukset selvittivät 2000-luvun alussa peruspalvelujen arviointien yhteydessä myös esiopetukseen liittyviä asioita. Lääninhallituksen sivistysosastot tekivät tällaisen arvioinnin viimeisen kerran vuonna 2003. Opetushallitus arvioi esiopetusta lukuvuonna 2003–2004 valtioneuvostolle annettavaa selontekoa varten. Selonteon jälkeen esiopetuksesta ei ole raportoit…
