Mobiiliopetuksen käyttömahdollisuuksia : oppilaiden omien mobiililaitteiden käyttö peruskoulun alakoulun opetuksessa

2015

Muutaman viime vuoden aikana mobiililaitteiden käyttö kouluissa on yleistynyt. Tämä on osittain aiheuttanut ristiriitaista keskustelua laitteiden käytöstä opetuksessa. Osa opettajista on ottanut mobiililaitteet opetuskäyttöön innokkaasti. Mobiiliopetuksen mahdollisuuksia ei kuitenkaan ole vielä kovin paljon tutkittu. Tällä tutkimuksella oli tarkoitus selvittää, mitä mahdollisuuksia oppilaiden omat mobiililaitteet tarjoavat opetukseen. Aineiston analyysissa pyrittiin etsimään tietoa siitä, miten ongelma-perustaisen opetuksen menetelmä ja pelillisyys vaikuttavat opetus- ja oppimisprosessissa, kun opiskelumenetelmänä käytetään mobiilioppimista ja oppilaiden omia mobiililaitteita. Tutkimus teht…

Immigrant entrepreneur firm start-up behavior and reasoning : a reflective study of causation, effectuation and bricolage

2013

Entrepreneurship research studies how and why firms come into being, survive and grow (Davidsson, 2004; Gartner, 1985; Schumpeter, 1934). Early literature has proposed a linear model of entrepreneurship which is intentional (Bird, 1988), opportunity discovery (Kirzner, 1997; Shane and Venkataraman, 2000) and goal & strategy oriented (Wiklund & Shepherd, 2005). Being a mainstream in the earlier research, it is labelled as causation model by Sarasvathy (2001). Several scholars such as Baker & Nelson (2005) and Sarasvathy (2001a, b; 2008) questioned the validity of the model and proposed two additional models to the classic model: Effectuation (Sarasvathy, 1998) and Entrepreneurial Bricolage (…

A Small Special Needs Class or a Smaller Class at the Beginning of the Educational Path?

2016

<p>This article is based on the case study which focuses on the small class (in this article used to describe a small special needs class) operation of one medium-sized Finnish town. In the study an attempt was made to clarify what kind of alternative the small class is to the first grade of general education at the beginning of the child's educational path, what kind of experiences the teachers had of the pupils of the small class, of multi-vocational cooperation and of pupils' integration and success in general education. The results of the study showed that a large part of the pupils who come to the small classes had learning difficulties, and attention and behavioural disorders. I…

Founding myths of European Union Europe and the workings of power in the European Union heritage and history initiatives

2019

Along with the European Union’s (EU) increased interest in a common European culture and past, narration as a means to create and communicate about them has gained new momentum. By applying the Discourse-Mythological Approach, I explore how the EU narrates the story of the origins of EU Europe in two recent EU heritage/history initiatives. The analysis brought out three storylines in the mythmaking of EU Europe. While the first storyline emphasizes temporal continuity, shared cultural roots, and preservation and transmission of a common legacy, the second focuses on the idea of a break and a rebirth of a civic/political community. The third storyline highlighting founding figures and key he…

Software startup education: gamifying growth hacking

2021

Startups seek to create highly scalable business models. For startups, growth is thus vital. Growth hacking is a marketing strategy advocated by various startup practitioner experts. It focuses on using low cost practices while utilizing existing platforms in creative ways to gain more users for the service. Though topics related to growth hacking such as marketing on a general level have been extensively studied in the past, growth hacking as a practitioner-born topic has not seen much interest among the academia. To both spark interest in growth hacking, and to facilitate teaching growth hacking in the academia, we present two board games intended to serve as an engaging introduction to g…

Who turns to entrepreneurship later in life? - Push and pull in Finnish rural and urban areas

2014

Age is an important factor in entrepreneurship. The paths into entrepreneurship at a later age may be varied. Self-employment in later life may be either a form of partial retirement or a career option. Older individuals may also be pushed into self-employment. The focus of this paper is on the career choices of older individuals and their background motivations in Finland. The purpose is to analyse the factors and motives in terms of the push and pull dichotomy that lead individuals to enter self-employment at older ages in different types of labour markets in Finland, viz., rural and urban areas. Although some studies have focused on transitions to self-employment among older workers, que…

Teatteritaiteen perusopetuksen kokemuksellisen laadun edellytykset

2017

Pro gradu –työssäni tutkin teatteritaiteen perusopetuksessa koettua laatua opetukseen osallistuneiden oppilaiden näkökulmasta. Tutkimukseni perustana on deweyläinen pragmatismi, jossa teoria ja empiria solmiutuvat yhteen. Työni teoreettisessa osassa kehitän kriittisen ja tulkinnallisen analyysin kautta kokemuksellisen laadun –käsitteen. Se on teoreettinen vastine välittömälle, merkitykselliselle ja tyydyttävälle kokemiselle, joka tapahtuu käytännössä. Käsite pohjautuu John Deweyn kokemusfilosofiaan ja Robert Pirsigin näkemykseen, jossa laatu tunnistetaan välittömässä jokapäiväisessä kokemisessa. Tutkimukseni päätehtävä on vastata kysymykseen, millaiset tekijät ovat kokemuksellisen laadun ed…

Building and Maintaining the Common Ground in Web-Based Interaction

2002

In this paper, the main purpose is to explore how participants establish and maintain the common ground in the computer-based conferences. Previous studies assume that before the participants can reach the deeper level interaction and learning, they have to gain an adequate level of common ground (Dillenbourg, 1999; Baker et al., 1999; Veerman, 2000). Subjects were 68 pre-service teachers and 7 mentors from three universities who participated in the web-based conferencing course for eight weeks. The results assume that in deeper level discussions it is essential that participants, especially fellow students did give not only the evidence about their own understanding by using written feedba…

Sosiaalisen taustan yhteydet motorisiin taitoihin kilparyhmään valituilla 6-10-vuotiailla joukkuevoimistelijoilla

2017

Lehtonen, A. 2017. Sosiaalisen taustan yhteydet motorisiin taitoihin kilparyhmään valituilla 6-10-vuotiailla joukkuevoimistelijoilla. Liikuntatieteellinen tiedekunta, Jyväskylän yliopisto, Liikuntapedagogiikan pro gradu -tutkielma, 82 s., 3 liitettä. Tutkimuksen tarkoituksena oli selvittää millaiset sosiaaliset taustat ja motoriset taidot 6-10-vuotiaat joukkuevoimistelijat omaavat, sekä tutkia sosiaalisen taustan yhteyksiä motorisiin perustaitoihin. Motoristen taitojen kehittymiseen vaikuttavat lapsen kasvuympäristö, perimä, ikä, sukupuoli, harjoittelu ja fyysinen aktiivisuus. Sosiaalinen tausta tässä tutkimuksessa tutkittiin kasvatuksella, perheen rakenteella ja liikunnallisuudella, vanhem…
