Morality in Let’s Play narrations : Moral evaluations of Gothic monsters in gameplay videos of Fallout 3

2018

Performative Let’s Play gaming videos are a part of contemporary Internet culture through which morality becomes shared. Many digital games draw on Gothic traditions to feature human-like monsters who demand morally complex interpretations from players. This study examines what kinds of moral evaluations players form of ambiguous Gothic monsters in Let’s Play videos of the action role-playing game Fallout 3. With a discourse analysis of transcribed speech obtained from 20 Let’s Play series on YouTube, it argues that the moral evaluations that players actively produce impact significantly on the play experience, that players take diverse moral stances whose (in)determinacy varies based on w…

Take-off analysis of the Olympic ski jumping competition (HS-106m).

2007

Abstract The take-off phase (approximately 6 m) of the jumps of all athletes participating in the individual HS-106 m hill ski jumping competition at the Torino Olympics was filmed with two high-speed cameras. The high altitude of the Pragelato ski jumping venue (1600 m) and slight tail wind in the final jumping round were expected to affect the results of this competition. The most significant correlation with the length of the jump was found in the in-run velocity ( r =0.628, p n =50). This was a surprise in Olympic level ski jumping, and suggests that good jumpers simply had smaller friction between their skis and the in-run tracks and/or the aerodynamic quality of their in-run position …

Re-ventriculostomy for treatment of obstructive hydrocephalus in cases of stoma dysfunction.

2002

In this article, 12 re-ventriculostomies in the treatment for obstructive hydrocephalus are described. The etiology of the hydrocephalus was a benign aqueductal stenosis in 9 patients, a tumor around the aqueduct in 2 patients and intraventricular bleeding in one patient. In all cases the initial ventriculostomy was successful, but after a time interval of 2 weeks to 6 years the patients developed similar clinical symptoms as preoperatively. In all except one case the radiological findings spoke in favour of stoma closure. Intraoperatively the stoma was completely closed in 9 patients and in 3 patients a subtotal closure was observed. In all cases a re-ventriculostomy was performed bluntly …

Inhibitory effect of A10 dopaminergic neurons of the ventral tegmental area on the orienting response evoked by acoustic stimulation in the cat.

1998

Abstract The effect of bilateral electric stimulation of A10 dopaminergic neurons of the ventral tegmental area (80–300 μA, 20–50 Hz, 0.1–0.5 ms, 2 s duration) on latency and duration of the orienting response, evoked by acoustic stimuli (4500–8000 Hz, 2 s), was studied in the cat. A10 neuron stimulation, simultaneous with the acoustic one, was performed with threshold parameters inducing minimal behavioral signs (head searching movement, sniffing, increase in alertness). By means of a videoanalysis system, a statistically significant increase, both of latency and duration of the response, was observed. The possible role of dopamine was studied administrating sulpiride (20 mg/kg IP), a dopa…

Heteroglossic and multimodal resources in use : participation across spaces of identification in a Christian lifestyle sports community

2017

This dissertation examines how members of one particular youth community, Christian lifestyle sports enthusiasts in Finland, use language and other semiotic resources to construct participation in their community of practice (CoP). The CoP is organized around the late-modern activity culture of lifestyle sports. The participants also share the Christian faith and in their snowboarding camps organize Bible study sessions and engage in prayer and worship. The theoretical and methodological framework incorporates sociolinguistics, social semiotics, discourse studies and connective ethnography, including the exploration of both the digital and physical spaces of the community. The dissertation …

Is It Possible to Educate, Intervene or “Cure” Autism Spectrum Disorder? A Content Analysis of YouTube Videos

2021

YouTube es uno de los sitios web más conocidos y de mayor acceso en todo el mundo, por lo que tiene un gran potencial pedagógico. No obstante, la calidad y la veracidad de algunos videos de YouTube son cuestionables. Las dudas sobre la confiabilidad del contenido fáctico es un factor controvertido que debe tenerse en cuenta, especialmente cuando se abordan cuestiones de salud pública. Por ello, el principal objetivo de este trabajo es analizar el contenido de los vídeos en español más vistos en YouTube relacionados con el trastorno del espectro autista (TEA).

Kestävän bioenergiatulevaisuuden rakentaminen : verkko-opetuksen kehittäminen

2011

Saatesanat: Verkko-opetuksesta puhutaan paljon, mutta harva opettaja vielä tietää mihin kaikkeen verkkoopetusta kannattaa käyttää, millaisia toteuttamismahdollisuuksia on olemassa ja millaisia työvälineitä verkko-opetuksessa tarvitaan. Verkko-opetuksen mahdollisuus ja olemassaolo herättää paljon kysymyksiä: Kuinka paljon resursseja tarvitaan suunnitteluun? Tarvitseeko verkkoopetuksena toteutettava kurssi ”starttirahaa”? Kuluuko opettajan oman työajan lisäksi muita resursseja? Säästyykö oma työpanos tulevaisuudessa, kun ensimmäinen verkkokurssi on kerran pidetty? Mikä on opettajan rooli? Voiko verkkokurssit tehdä opettajat jopa tarpeettomiksi?

YouTube ja videot: arkea, huumoria vai asiaa?

2017

YouTube mielletään usein tavallisten ihmisten tekemien videoiden aarreaitaksi. Nuoret tubettajat ovat suosittuja videoiden sisällöntuottajia kertoessaan videoissa omista arkisista kokemuksistaan ja muista elämänpiiriinsä liittyvistä tapahtumista. Todellisuudessa YouTuben videot eivät kuitenkaan ole yhtenäinen lajityyppi, ja usein videot olla ammattimaisesti tuotettuja. Videot edellyttävät vaativat medialukutaitoa, joka auttaa tunnistamaan niiden kielelliset ja visuaaliset tavat ilmaista asioita. Videoita löytyy monilla eri kielillä ja monista aiheista ja kiinnostuksen kohteista. Kielenopiskelun kannalta ne tarjoavat ehtymättömän lähteen autenttista materiaalia. nonPeerReviewed
