Onnistuminen muotoilussa : muotoilijan työn tavoitteiden mittaus ja arviointi
2016
Muotoilun arvoa on mitattu yleensä lopputulosta ja ulkoisia hyötyjä arvioiden. Se, miten muotoilija itse määrittelee työnsä tavoitteet, on jäänyt vähäisemmälle huomiolle. Tässä tutkielmassa esitetään mittauskehikko muotoilijoiden omalle työlleen asettamien tavoitteiden mittaamista, kuvailua, vertailua ja toimialan kehityksen seurantaa varten. Mitattavan ilmiön hypoteesi käsittää seitsemän ulottuvuutta: kolme ekologisen kestävyyden periaatetta ja yhden sosiaalisen kestävyyden periaatteen sekä loppukäyttäjän tarpeet, muotoilijan omat tarpeet ja ulkoiset vaatimukset. Tutkielman alussa kuvaillaan muotoilualaa ja sen muutoksia Suomessa sekä arvojen merkitystä muotoilijan työssä. Teorialuku jäsen…

Riconfigurare i territori metroplitani. Forme di urbanizzazione e fenomeni di pressione insediativa sui sistemi di interesse naturale in Sicilia
2018
The consumption of the soil due to urbanization it is a phenomena already for many years under observations, but of which only the scientific environment has noticed the elevated environmental impact progress. From a disciplinary point of view, is possible to identify a line of research focusing on the analysis and identification of new morphologies of urbanization and on the interaction among different settlement patterns coexisting in a specific context. This reading complements with the scientific production about the forms of settlement pressure on environmental systems, producing change and deterioration on natural ecosystems and loss of biodiversity. A necessary reference for this lin…

Perceived Opportunities for Physical Activity and Willingness to Be More Active in Older Adults with Different Physical Activity Levels
2021
This study examined equity in physical activity (PA) by investigating whether perceived opportunity for PA was associated with willingness to be more active. Among community residents (75, 80, or 85 years old, n = 962) perceived opportunity for PA (poor and good), willingness to be more active (not at all, a bit, and a lot), and level of PA (low, moderate, and high) were assessed via questionnaires. Multinomial logistic regression showed that physical activity moderated the association between poor opportunity and willingness to increase PA. Among those with moderate PA, poor opportunity for PA increased the odds of willingness to be a lot more active (multinomial odds ratio, mOR 3.90, 95% …
MOCSE Centered on Students: Validation of Learning Demands and Teacher Support Scales
2020
Based on The Educational Situation Quality Model (MOCSE, acronym in Spanish) framework, the primary objective of this study is to test the factorial validity and reliability of two MOCSE measure instruments referred to the preactional-decisional phase, specifically to learning demands and teacher supports perceived by students to overcome such demands in the classroom context. The participants were 357 Spanish undergraduate students. The data obtained by exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses revealed that the “Learning Demands Scale” (MOCSE-LDS) has a two-factor structure: perceived desirability and feasibility of demands. The data also revealed that the “Teacher Support Questionnair…
Finnish upper secondary school EFL teachers' satisfaction with current textbooks
2015
Oppikirjojen merkitys suomalaisessa vieraiden kielten opetuksessa on kiistaton. Oppikirjojen sisältöä ja käyttöä onkin tutkittu lukuisien aihepiirien, kuten esimerkiksi erilaisten sisältöanalyysien kautta (ks. esim. Hietala 2013, Tergujeff 2013), mutta niiden, jotka todella käyttävät oppikirjaa työvälineenään, ääni ei aina ole tullut kuuluviin. Tässä tutkimuksessa selvitettiin suomalaisten lukion englannin opettajien tyytyväisyyttä nykyisin markkinoilla oleviin lukion englannin kielen oppikirjoihin usean ajankohtaisen näkökulman kautta. Nämä näkökulmat olivat oppikirjan valinta, vastaavuus opetussuunnitelman kanssa, kielitaidon eri osa-alueiden harjoittaminen, autenttisen materiaalin hyödyn…
