Terveyden edistämisen asiantuntijuus kunnassa : terveyden edistämisen asiantuntijoiden näkemyksiä työssä tarvittavasta osaamisesta

2011

Viime vuosien aikana kunnat ovat palkanneet terveyden edistämisen asiantuntijoita suunnittelu- ja kehittämistehtäviin. Tämän tutkimuksen tarkoituksena on kuvata millainen terveyden edistämisen asiantuntijoiden toimissa olevien tehtävä on kunnissa tällä hetkellä, millaista osaamista heidän mielestään terveyden edistämisen asiantuntija tarvitsee kuntasektorilla sekä millainen kokemus heillä on asiantuntijuutensa kehittymisestä. Tutkimusaineisto koottiin syksyllä 2010 haastattelemalla kuntien palveluksessa olevia terveyden edistämisen asiantuntijoita (n=10). Haastattelut toteutettiin puhelinhaastatteluina. Tutkimus on laadullinen ja aineisto analysoitiin sisällönanalyysillä. Tutkimuksessa selv…

The inter-rater and intra-rater reliability of the Actual Aquatic Skills Test (AAST) for assessing young children’s motor competence in the water

2021

As children’s actual aquatic skills are important for the prevention of drowning as well as their engagement in lifelong aquatic physical activity, researchers and practitioners should be able to assess this vital concept accurately and reliably. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the inter-rater and intra-rater reliability of the Actual Aquatic Skills Test (AAST), consisting of 17 different test items for the assessment of young children’s motor competence in the water. Six raters received a training and evaluation session on scoring the AAST, after which five of them assessed four test videos (of various children (n = 38) performing the test items) twice, with one to t…

A family based tailored counselling to increase non-exercise physical activity in adults with a sedentary job and physical activity in their young ch…

2011

Background. Epidemiological evidence suggests that decrease in sedentary behaviour is beneficial for health. This family based randomized controlled trial examines whether face-to-face delivered counselling is effective in reducing sedentary time and improving health in adults and increasing moderate-to-vigorous activities in children. Methods. The families are randomized after balancing socioeconomic and environmental factors in the Jyväskylä region, Finland. Inclusion criteria are: healthy men and women with children 3-8 years old, and having an occupation where they self-reportedly sit more than 50% of their work time and children in all-day day-care in kindergarten or in the first grade…

Kansainvälinen harjoittelu – pelimerkit työelämän käyttöön!

2014

CIMO on kansainvälistänyt jo yli kaksikymmentä vuotta suomalaisia nuoria työelämää varten. Yksi hyvä väline on ollut opintoihin liittyvä harjoittelu ulkomailla. Työelämässä tarvitaankin yhä monipuolisempaa kielitaitoa, mutta myös muita kansainvälisen kokemuksen kasvattamia ominaisuuksia. Viimeisen kymmenen vuoden aikana harjoittelijoita on lähetetty yhä enemmän muualle kuin englanninkielisille alueille, viime vuosina myös yhä enemmän Euroopan ulkopuolelle. Euroopan ulkopuoliset maat kiinnostavatkin suomalaisia nuoria kovasti. Vuoden 2014 harjoitteluhaussa suosituin kohdemaa oli Kiina ja toiseksi suosituin – uutuutena mukaan tullut – Brasilia. nonPeerReviewed

The pedagogy of multiliteracies as a code breaker : A suggestion for a transversal approach to computing education in basic education

2021

While computing has been (re)introduced into the basic education curricula in various countries, its actual implementation appears to be inconsistent. There are schools in which computing education is commonplace, while the implementation seems to be lagging behind in others. There is emerging evidence that some teachers do not consider computing education relevant, meaningful and important and, thus, intentionally neglect its provision. This is problematic as understanding the principles of code and computing is crucial for agentic citizenship in the post-digital era. This paper argues that one main reason for these teachers' reluctance is the economy-driven discursive framing of computing…

The Personal Repertoire and Its Materiality : Resources, Means and Modalities of Languaging

2023

The chapter is a theoretical discussion of the concept of personal repertoire and its application in the context of applied linguistics, particularly in the study of language learning and development. It questions conceptualisations that understand language learning as acquisition of abstract, decontextual and disembodied language knowledge and argues that learners’ know-how is not based on any kind of ‘mental grammar’, but on a personal repertoire of different multimodal semiotic resources. Bringing together ‘old’ and ‘new’ arguments for materialism, personal repertoires are examined focussing on how embodied agentive activity is intertwined with the socially structured environments and th…

Virtual exchange : not only for language learning

2018

Technology enables teachers to connect their students online with foreign students in a facilitated educational setting. Such tele-collaborative intercultural projects are called virtual exchange practices (O’Dowd 2018). The students get an opportunity to engage in dialogues and tele-collaboration with peers from other countries. The intercultural encounters may not only enhance the participants’ intercultural and foreign language competencies but can also develop their collaborative skills. In addition, the students can learn how to manage in communicative situations, when the communicators’ language proficiency levels and study fields are different. This article provides an overview of vi…
