Sourcing on the internet: Examining the relations among different phases of online inquiry
2021
This study examined students’ engagement in sourcing throughout online inquiry, that is, when they specified the information need, formulated search queries, evaluated online texts, and composed a written product. Participants were 167 upper secondary school students. Students completed an online inquiry task in a restricted online environment that utilized authentic online texts. Students’ prior topic knowledge and reading fluency was measured and controlled for in the analysis. The results showed that students engaged in sourcing even in the earliest phases of online inquiry. A sequential regression analysis indicated that the more frequently students engaged in sourcing in specifying the…

Toward a Model of Workforce Training and Development
2019
In the modern, ever-changing world, both employers and employees are struggling in keeping their competitive advantage. Previous studies have recognised that both formal instruction and informal learning are needed to gain and maintain competence. The famous 70-20-10 model states that only 10 per cent of learning occurs during the formal instruction. The challenge for the organisations is how the formal instruction can and should be provided to employees. In this paper, we constructed a model of Workforce Training and Development (WOTRA), based on the current learning theories, modes, methods, and models. WOTRA can be used by both employers and employees to choose an adequate mix of learnin…
‘World-class’ fantasies : A neocolonial analysis of international branch campuses
2018
In this article, we build on postcolonial studies and discourse analytical research exploring how the ‘world-class’ discourse as an ideology and a fantasy structures neocolonial relations in international branch campuses. We empirically examine how international branch campuses reproduce the fantasy of being so-called world-class operators and how the onsite faculty members identify with or resist this world-class fantasy through mimicry. Our research material originates from fieldwork conducted in business-school international branch campuses operating in the United Arab Emirates. Our findings show the ambivalent nature of mimicry towards the world-class fantasy to include both compliance …
Vocabulary learning strategies employed by Finnish high school EFL students
2014
Tämän Pro gradu-tutkielman ensisijainen tarve oli lisätä opettajien ja oppilaiden tietoisuutta sanaston oppimisstrategioiden hyödyistä. Lisäksi koin, että tutkielmani toisi lisää tietoa suomalaisten lukiolaisten strategioiden käyttötottumuksista. Tutkielman toissijainen tarkoitus oli tuottaa lisää tutkimustietoa aikaisempien sanaston oppimisstrategiakyselyiden rinnalle, sillä tämänkaltaisia tutkimuksia on tehty melko vähän. Useimmissa aikaisemmissa kyselytutkimuksissa ei ole niin ikään tarkemmin tutkittu sukupuolen aikaansaamia vaikutuksia sanaston oppimisstrategioiden valintaan ja käyttöön. Tämän tutkielman tarkoituksena oli kuvata ja kartoittaa suomalaisten lukiolaisten englannin kielen s…

The language learning strategies of students at a University of Applied Sciences and how strategy use correlates with learning success
2017
Kielenoppimisstrategiat ovat keinoja, joita oppijat käyttävät ohjaamaan ja tehostamaan omaa oppimistaan. Oppimisstrategioiden monipuolisen käytön on havaittu vaikuttavan kielenoppimisen onnistumiseen. Oppimisstrategioiden käytössä on kuitenkin tärkeää, että oppijat osaavat soveltaa oikeaa oppimisstrategiaa eri oppimistilanteissa. Tämän takia on tärkeää, että oppijoita ohjataan strategioiden käytössä, jotta he kehittyvät omien strategioidensa arvioijina ja osaavat soveltaa strategioitaan. Tutkimuksen tavoitteena oli selvittää, millaisia oppimisstrategioita ammattikorkeakouluopiskelijat käyttävät, onko opiskelijoiden strategioiden käytön ja heidän menestyksensä pakollisella työelämän englanni…
Something Borrowed : Interfigural Characterisation in Anglo-American Fantasy Comics
2016
It is no secret that comics’ formal structure resembles a pastiche: images, words and gaps of different styles and abstraction levels mix to tell a story that is more than their sum. Is it any wonder, then, that modern, myth-driven graphic novels tend to borrow their content elements – such as characters – from several heterogeneous sources as well? Wolfgang G. Müller's little-known but widely applicable theory of interfigurality (1991) shows how literary characters gain depth and resonance by sharing elements with characters in other works. The chapter revises his theory and shows how it could also be used in the analysis of comic book characters. Fantasy comics from Vertigo series like Fa…
Effects of Prior Knowledge on Comprehending Text About Learning Strategies
2021
Good knowledge and skills in using different learning strategies is important for learning with understanding and even more critical during distance learning. Findings indicate that students tend to use and value ineffective learning strategies, thus there is need to educate students. This study aimed to analyze the possibility of using refutation text on learning strategies that students can study independently. The study examined how reported use of learning strategies and preexisting beliefs about the effectiveness of rehearsal and comprehension-oriented strategies relate to the comprehension of text about learning strategies, and how text comprehension is related to later use of strateg…
