Background Health literacy (HL) is an important determinant of health and health behaviours, and there is a need to monitor HL levels among all population groups. It is therefore essential to develop instruments to assess HL during childhood and adolescence.

Moniammatillisuus osana fysioterapian ydinosaamista
2017
TIIVISTELMÄ Paasu-Hynynen, S. 2017. Moniammatillisuus osana fysioterapian ydinosaamista. Jyväskylän yli-opisto, fysioterapian pro Gradu -tutkielma, 63 s., 6 liitettä. Johdanto: Moniammatillinen osaaminen on merkittävää nykypäivän ja erityisesti tulevaisuuden sosiaali- ja terveysalan toiminnassa. Aikaisemmissa tutkimuksissa on osoitettu moniammatillisien tiimien olevan asiakaskeskeisiä ja tehokkaita, erityisesti kun kyseessä on moniongelmainen asia-kas. Fysioterapeuttien ydinosaaminen ja asiantuntijuus korostuvat toimintakyvyn arvioinnissa ja toimintakykyyn kohdistuvassa kuntoutuksessa. Fysioterapeuttien työ pohjautuu tutkimusnäyt-töön, mutta moniammatillisuustaitojen tarkastelua suomalaiste…
Collaboration between non-governmental organizations and educational leaders in capacity development in rural South Africa
2013
Skills development has been a point of urgency since the advent of progressive governance in democratic South Africa. Despite many efforts through the National Skills Development Strategies and partnerships, the situation still remains worrisome especially in rural context. The study aimed to identify how the NGOs and education leaders collaborate in skills development, its impact, and possible ways of optimizing such practices. A methodology that considers the perspectives of individuals experiencing the phenomenon was invoked. Accordingly, this study exploits the phenomenological approach. Participants were purposely selected from Sector Education Training Authorities and NGOs involved in…

Self-organised structures in the field of ICT : challenges for employees’ workplace learning
2021
PurposeThe purpose of this study is to identify the challenges of low hierarchy and self-organised structures for employees’ learning and competency development at work. In the past decade, interest in employees’ and organisations’ self-directedness has increased. Self-organised structures are perceived as better able to answer to the quickly changing requirements of clients and business environments. Within these structures, employees are expected to take on more responsibility and maintain more control over their workplace learning, which means they must be self-directed and autonomous. An important question for this approach is how can workplace learning and employee competence developme…
A multidimensional adapted process model of teaching
2021
AbstractIn the present study, we aimed to specify the key competence domains perceived to be critical for the teaching profession and depict them as a comprehensive teacher competence model. An expert panel that included representatives from seven units providing university-based initial teacher education in Finland carried out this process. To produce an active construction of a shared understanding and an interpretation of the discourse in the field, the experts reviewed literature on teaching. The resulting teacher competence model, the multidimensional adapted process model of teaching (MAP), represents a collective conception of the relevant empirical literature and prevailing discours…
