Pathways and Flexible Learning Opportunities - Implications for Lifelong Career Management Skills and Comprehensive Guidance Systems
2012
Introduction: Over the last decade lifelong guidance has been given increasing attention at both European and national levels. It is recognised as a crucial dimension of lifelong learning, promoting both social and economic goals: in particular, improving the effi ciency and effectiveness of education, training and the labour market through its contribution to reducing drop-out, preventing skill mismatches and boosting productivity. Two EU Resolutions of the Education Council (20041; 20082) have highlighted the need for strong guidance services throughout the lifespan to equip citizens with the skills needed to manage their learning and careers, and the transitions between and within educat…

Elucidating the ligand shell structure and dynamics of Au683MBA32 gold nanocluster using molecular dynamics simulations
2017
Synthesising novel gold nanoparticles and -clusters can be often easier than characterising them, and after experimental analysis many options for the possible molecular formula of the cluster may remain as equally valid options. These options may be investigated by quantum computational means, such as density functional theory, but since DFT includes the electronic interactions, this might take time and excessive effort if the amount of options is large. In this thesis a new way of easing the computational task is introduced by a novel method, that combines a guessing algorithm and molecular dynamics simulations. The algorithm produces possible structures by utilising existing structures o…
Computational Criteria for Hydrogen Evolution Activity on Ligand-Protected Au25-Based Nanoclusters
2023
The hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) is a critical reaction in addressing climate change; however, it requires catalysts to be generated on an industrial scale. Nanomaterials offer several advantages over conventional HER catalysts, including the possibility of atomic precision in tailoring the intrinsic activity. Ligand-protected metal clusters, such as the thiolate-protected MAu24(SR)18 (where M is Au, Cu, Pd), are of particular interest as not only are they electrocatalytically active toward HER, but the charge state and composition can be precisely tuned. Here, we present a comprehensive computational study examining how the charge state and dopants affect the catalytic activity of [MA…

Transnational athletic career and cultural transition
2020
Transnational movement of sports participants is an important dimension of the internationalization and globalization processes in sports industry and also has become a crucial element of athlete professional development in the 21st century. Since Bale and Maguire’s (1994) pioneering work on athletic talent migration, sports sociology and human geography scholars have made strides in mapping international movement flows of skilled sports migrants. Furthermore, with a recent shift in sports labour migration studies from macro- to microsociological perspectives, there has been an increased interest in the agency and multidimensionality of migrant professionals’ life and work experiences acros…
Liikuntaneuvojien urapolut : tutkimus Kisakallion Urheiluopistosta vuosina 2005 ja 2006 valmistuneiden liikuntaneuvojien urapoluista
2011
Tutkimuksen tavoitteena oli kuvata Kisakallion Urheiluopistosta vuosina 2005 ja 2006 valmistuneiden liikuntaneuvojien urapolkuja ja kokemuksia työelämästä. Tutkimuksessa etsittiin vastauksia seuraaviin kysymyksiin: Miten työelämän yleiset piirteet, kuten epätyypilliset työsuhteet, siirtymien lisääntyminen työuralla, elinikäinen oppiminen, joustavat työajat ja itsensä toteuttaminen työn kautta, näkyvät liikuntaneuvojien urapoluilla? Miten liikunnanohjauksen perustutkinto vastaa työelämän vaatimuksia? Tutkimus toteutettiin laadullisia menetelmiä käyttäen. Tutkimusta varten haastateltiin kahdeksaa liikunta-alalla työskentelevää liikuntaneuvojaa puolistrukturoidun haastattelurungon avulla. Haas…
Finnish female coaches' career development and perceptions : a case study of six Finnish female coaches
2016
Women are often seen as needing to be good at everything and sometimes even better. The numbers of women and girls participating in sport are growing rapidly. However, the same pattern cannot be observed in the leadership positions within sport, which includes coaches. Although the field of female leadership within sport organizations has been researched, what factors influence female coaches’ career paths and the reasons behind the under representation is still under researched in Finland. The purpose of this research is to describe the career paths and perceptions of the Finnish female coaches, who coach or have coached at a highest level of their sport in Finland. A qualitative study was…
