Emancipating and developing learning activity: Systemic intervention and re-instrumentation in higher education.

The central theme of this thesis is the emancipation and further development of learning activity in higher education in the context of the ongoing digital transformation of our societies. It was developed in response to the highly problematic mainstream approach to digital re-instrumentation of teaching and studying practises in contemporary higher education. The mainstream approach is largely based on centralisation, standardisation, commoditisation, and commercialisation, while re-producing the general patterns of control, responsibility, and dependence that are characteristic for activity systems of schooling. Whereas much of educational research and development focuses on the optimisation and fine-tuning of schooling, the overall inquiry that is underlying this thesis has been carried out from an explicitly critical position and within a framework of action science. It thus conceptualises learning activity in higher education not only as an object of inquiry but also as an object to engage with and to intervene into from a perspective of intentional change. The knowledge-constituting interest of this type of inquiry can be tentatively described as a combination of heuristic-instrumental (guidelines for contextualised action and intervention), practical-phronetic (deliberation of value-rational aspects of means and ends), and developmental-emancipatory (deliberation of issues of power, self-determination, and growth) aspects. Its goal is the production of orientation knowledge for educational practise. The thesis provides an analysis, argumentation, and normative claim on why the development of learning activity should be turned into an object of individual|collective inquiry and intentional change in higher education, and why the current state of affairs in higher education actually impedes such a development. It argues for a decisive shift of attention to the intentional emancipation and further development of learning activity as an important cultural instrument for human (self-)production within the digital transformation. The thesis also attempts an in-depth exploration of what type of methodological rationale can actually be applied to an object of inquiry (developing learning activity) that is at the same time conceptualised as an object of intentional change within the ongoing digital transformation. The result of this retrospective reflection is the formulation of “optimally incomplete” guidelines for educational R&D practise that shares the practicalphronetic (value related) and developmental-emancipatory (power related) orientations that had been driving the overall inquiry. In addition, the thesis formulates the instrumental-heuristic knowledge claim that the conceptual instruments that were adapted and validated in the context of a series of intervention studies provide means to effectively intervene into existing practise in higher education to support the necessary development of (increasingly emancipated) networked learning activity. It suggests that digital networked instruments (tools and services) generally should be considered and treated as transient elements within critical systemic intervention research in higher education. It further argues for the predominant use of loosely-coupled, digital networked instruments that allow for individual|collective ownership, control, (co-)production, and re-use in other contexts and for other purposes. Since the range of digital instrumentation options is continuously expanding and currently shows no signs of an imminent slow-down or consolidation, individual and collective exploration and experimentation of this realm needs to be systematically incorporated into higher education practise.

Design of an amplifier and an instrumentation setup for a harsh environment heat flux measurement application – case axial flux electric machine

Measurement is a tool for researching. Therefore, it is important that the measuring process is carried out correctly, without distorting the signal or the measured event. Researches of thermoelectric phenomena have been focused more on transverse thermoelectric phenomena during recent decades. Transverse Seebeck effect enables to produce thinner and faster heat flux sensor than before. Studies about transverse Seebeck effect have so far focused on materials, so in this Master’s Thesis instrumentation of transverse Seebeck effect based heat flux sensor is studied, This Master’s Thesis examines an equivalent circuit of transverse Seebeck effect heat flux sensors, their connectivity to electronics and choosing and design a right type amplifier. The research is carried out with a case study which is Gradient Heat Flux Sensors and an electrical motor. In this work, a general equivalent circuit was presented for the transverse Seebeck effect-based heat flux sensor. An amplifier was designed for the sensor of the case study, and the solution was produced for the measurement of the local heat flux of the electric motor to improve the electromagnetic compatibility.

Laiteohjauksessamuodostuvan informaation jalostamisen mahdollisuudet

Teollisuuden automaatiojärjestelmät digitalisoituvat, samalla niiden tuottaman reaaliaikaisen datan määrä kasvaa ja etenkin sen saatavuus helpottuu. Samanaikaisesti laitevalmistajan liiketoimintamallit ovat muuttumassa perinteisestä konevalmistuksesta kohti palveluntarjontaa. Muuttuneessa tilanteessa laitteiden ohjauksessa käytettäviltä järjestelmiltä vaaditaan uusia ominaisuuksia. Informaation käsittely ja jalostaminen muodostuvat tärkeiksi kilpailu-tekijöiksi. Kirjallisuusosassa on tarkasteltu, miten data jalostuu informaatioksi ja siitä edelleen tietämykseksi. Työssä myös selvitetään, miten niitä voidaan hyödyntää liiketoiminnassa. Samalla perehdytään teollisuudesta löytyviin informaatio- ja tietämysjärjestelmiin. Kokeellisessa osassa esitellään toimiva tiedonkeruu- ja raportointijärjestelmä ja tutkitaan, miten sitä tulisi kehittää, jotta se sopisi paremmin muuttuviin liiketoimintamalleihin. Lopputuloksena kehitettiin mallijärjestelmä, jolla pystytään täyttämään laitevalmistajan ja loppukäyttäjän muuttuneet informaatiotarpeet osana laiteohjausta.

Energiataseen hallinta ja optimointi metsäteollisuusintegraatissa

Diplomityö on tehty UPM-Kymmene Oyj, Kaukaan tehtailla Lappeenrannassa. Integroidussa metsäteollisuudessa energiantuotanto koostuu yleensä sähkön- ja lämmöntuotannosta. Kaukaan tehtailla prosessien lämmöntarve saadaan katettua kokonaisuudessaan omalla tuotannolla, kun taas kulutetusta sähköstä ainoastaan puolet on tuotettu itse. Loput sähköntarpeesta joudutaan ostamaan ulkopuolelta. Tutkimuksen pääpaino on ollut selvittää, miten kustannukset ovat riippuvaisia energiantuotannosta erilaisissa käyttöolosuhteissa. Työn tuloksena on luotu tietokonepohjainen laskentamalli, jonka avulla Kaukaan tehtaiden energiantuotantoa voidaan ohjata taloudellisesti optimaalisimmalla tavalla kulloinkin vallitsevassa käyttötilanteessa. Lisäksi tutkimuksessa on analysoitu tehdasintegraatin lämmönkulutuksen seurannan mahdollisuuksia lämmönsiirtoverkon nykyisten mittausten perusteella. Työssä on kerrottu yleisesti metsäteollisuuden energiankulutuksesta Suomessa. Lisäksi on esitetty arvioita energiankulutuksen kehityksestä tulevaisuudessa sekä keinoja energiatehokkuuden parantamiseksi. Kaukaan tehtailla lämmönkulutuksen seurantaan käytettävät mittausmenetelmät ja -laitteet on esitelty virtausmittausten osalta sekä arvioitu nykyisten mittausten luotettavuutta ja riittävyyttä kokonaisvaltaisen lämpötaseen hallintaan. Kaukaan tehtaiden energiantuotantojärjestelmästä on luotu termodynaaminen malli, johon energiantuotannosta aiheutuneiden kustannusten laskenta perustuu. Energiantuotannon optimoinnilla pyritään määrittelemään tietyn tarkasteluhetken käyttötilanteessa taloudellisesti optimaalisin kattiloiden ajojärjestys. Tarkastelu on rajattu lämmöntuotannon lisäämisen osalta maakaasun käytön lisäämiseen ja höyryturbiinien ohitukseen. Sähkön ja maakaasun hinnan sekä ympäristön lämpötilan vaihtelujen vaikutusta optimaaliseen ajojärjestykseen on havainnollistettu esimerkkien avulla.

Lisäainetehtaan tuotantoprosessin kehittäminen

Tämän diplomityön tarkoituksena oli Finnsementti osakeyhtiöön kuuluvan betonin lisäaineita valmistavan tehtaan tuotantoprosessin kehittäminen. Työssä laadittiin myynnin kasvuennusteen perusteella suunnitelma, jonka mukaan määriteltiin betonin lisäaineille ja raaka-aineille sopivat varastosäiliöt. Suunnitelman perusteella määriteltiin kiinteät putkilinjat sekä kirkkaille että tummille nesteille, jolloin materiaalihäviöt saatiin pienemmiksi ja putkilinjojen pesun tarve väheni.

TMP- laitoksen mallinnus ja simulointi

Diplomityössä tehtiin Balas- simulointimalli Stora Enso Publication Papers Oy Ltd Varkauden tehtaiden kuumahierrelaitoksesta, johon sovitettiin tehtaan lämpö-, kuitu- ja kiertovesivirtaukset sekä kiertovesissä olevien liuenneiden ja kolloidisten aineiden virtaukset. Kirjallisuusosassa perehdyttiin simulaattorimallin luontiin ja käyttötarkoituksiin. Siinä käsitellään Balas- simulaattorin ominaisuuksia ja laiteparametrointia. Tarkastellaan kuumahierreprosessin eri vaiheita, olosuhteita ja laitteiden toimintaa. Perehdytään prosessin energian kulutukseen ja talteenottoon sekä kiertovesien liuenneiden ja kolloidisten aineiden mittaussuureisiin ja vaikutuksiin prosessissa. Simulaattorimallin tekemiseen kuului tehtaan virtauskaavion ja simulaattorimallin tekeminen, mittauskoesuunnittelu, tehdasmittaukset, simulaattorin parametrointi, mittaus- ja simulaattoritulosten yhteensovittaminen sekä mallin kelpoistaminen. Tehtaan virtauskaavion piirtämisessä käytettiin apuna tehtaan prosessi- ja instrumentointikaavioita, joiden pohjalta mittauskoesuunnitelma ja simulaattorimalli tehtiin. Koesuunnitelman mittaussuureiksi valittiin virtaukset, sakeudet, lämpötilat sekä kiertovesien kiintoaineen-, kokonaisorgaanisen hiilen- ja liuenneen orgaanisen aineen pitoisuuksien määritykset. Mittauksilla saatiin tietoja prosessivirtausten taseista, joita käytettiin simulaattorimallin keskeisempien laiteparametriarvojen määrityksessä. Exceliä hyödynnettiin mittaus- ja simulaattoritulosten taulukoinnissa, laiteparametrien laskemisessa sekä arvojen syötössä ja vastaanotossa Excelin ja simulaattorin välillä. Sitä käytettiin myös graafisessa mittaus- ja simulaattoritulosten yhteensovittamisessa, jolla pystyttiin havainnollisesti näkemään eri syöttöparametrien muutoksien vaikutukset simulaattorin laskemissa virtaustuloksissa. Mallin antamien arvojen ja todellisten prosessimittausarvojen yhteensovittamisen ja mallista varmistumisen tuloksista voidaan todeta mallin korreloivan todellista prosessia melko hyvin.

Photoelectric Measurements and Modeling of Bacteriorhodopsin

Recent technology has provided us with new information about the internal structures and properties of biomolecules. This has lead to the design of applications based on underlying biological processes. Applications proposed for biomolecules are, for example, the future computers and different types of sensors. One potential biomolecule to be incorporated in the applications is bacteriorhodopsin. Bacteriorhodopsin is a light-sensitive biomolecule, which works in a similar way as the light sensitive cells of the human eye. Bacteriorhodopsin reacts to light by undergoing a complicated series of chemical and thermal transitions. During these transitions, a proton translocation occurs inside the molecule. It is possible to measure the photovoltage caused by the proton translocations when a vast number of molecules is immobilized in a thin film. Also the changes in the light absorption of the film can be measured. This work aimed to develop the electronics needed for the voltage measurements of the bacteriorhodopsin-based optoelectronic sensors. The development of the electronics aimed to get more accurate information about the structure and functionality of these sensors. The sensors used in this work contain a thick film of bacteriorhodopsin immobilized in polyvinylalcohol. This film is placed between two transparent electrodes. The result of this work is an instrumentation amplifier which can be placed in a small space very close to the sensor. By using this amplifier, the original photovoltage can be measured in more detail. The response measured using this amplifier revealed two different components, which could not be distinguished earlier. Another result of this work is the model for the photoelectric response in dry polymer films.

Advanced chemometric methods: Applicability on industrial data

Recent years have produced great advances in the instrumentation technology. The amount of available data has been increasing due to the simplicity, speed and accuracy of current spectroscopic instruments. Most of these data are, however, meaningless without a proper analysis. This has been one of the reasons for the overgrowing success of multivariate handling of such data. Industrial data is commonly not designed data; in other words, there is no exact experimental design, but rather the data have been collected as a routine procedure during an industrial process. This makes certain demands on the multivariate modeling, as the selection of samples and variables can have an enormous effect. Common approaches in the modeling of industrial data are PCA (principal component analysis) and PLS (projection to latent structures or partial least squares) but there are also other methods that should be considered. The more advanced methods include multi block modeling and nonlinear modeling. In this thesis it is shown that the results of data analysis vary according to the modeling approach used, thus making the selection of the modeling approach dependent on the purpose of the model. If the model is intended to provide accurate predictions, the approach should be different than in the case where the purpose of modeling is mostly to obtain information about the variables and the process. For industrial applicability it is essential that the methods are robust and sufficiently simple to apply. In this way the methods and the results can be compared and an approach selected that is suitable for the intended purpose. Differences in data analysis methods are compared with data from different fields of industry in this thesis. In the first two papers, the multi block method is considered for data originating from the oil and fertilizer industries. The results are compared to those from PLS and priority PLS. The third paper considers applicability of multivariate models to process control for a reactive crystallization process. In the fourth paper, nonlinear modeling is examined with a data set from the oil industry. The response has a nonlinear relation to the descriptor matrix, and the results are compared between linear modeling, polynomial PLS and nonlinear modeling using nonlinear score vectors.

Musikalisk lärandemiljö : planerade musikaktiviteter med småbarn i daghem

A musically stimulating nvironment is of great significance when considering the opportunities for development and learning that are offered to children in day nurseries. Moreover, the quality of musical activities also has great significance for the musical development of growing children. Young children are always striving to create meaning and understanding; they influence and are influenced by the context in which they are situated. The purpose of this study is to investigate the planned music activities in the musical learning environment of seven toddler’s groups in day nurseries, based on four different aspects: the texts of children’s songs, the melodies of children’s songs, the basic elements of music and the use of instrumentation. The data has been gathered by video observation of the planned music activities. The age of the children studied ranged from 11 months to 3 years and 11 months, and on average there were 13 children in each group. The study involved a total of just over 90 children and nine educators. The methodological approaches are hermeneutic as well as videographic, and they are applied to the analysis as required. The approaches are well suited to an understanding of the planned music activities where the individual’s communications and actions are studied. The results of the study show that educators impart a cultural heritage to the children in the form of old traditional songs, but they also act as intermediaries for newer children's songs. They focus on actively on the text content of the children’s songs in their interaction with the children, but do not address the meaning of the text. Furthermore, while the educators use music sessions for the children to develop, among other things, an understanding of language and social skills, they do not use the sessions to develop the children’s musical skills. The educators could, to a much greater extent than they now do, direct the children's attention to the basic elements of music, and conduct meta-cognitive dialogues with the children. They use a large repertoire of children's songs, which are, however, often too demanding for the children’s voices to cope with. In addition, the educators do not plan, in any significant way, activities for the toddlers in order to help them develop the accuracy of their vocal tones. With regard to the use of instruments, the educators focus, in their interaction with the children, is placed on both the usage of the instruments and knowledge about the instruments. Regarding the use of instruments the study shows that the children’s musical expression takes place in an environment that includes both melody and rhythm instruments. It is clear that children are actively interested in the constructed instrument environment, because for long periods of time they independently play and experiment with instruments.

Electrical Equivalent Circuit for Dry Bacteriorhodopsin Sensor

Bacteriorhodopsin (BR) is a photosensitive protein which functions as a light-driven proton pump. Due to its photoactivity, BR could be used in photosensing and information processing which has inspired researchers to study the photoelectric response and the appropriate measurement instrumentation for BR. In this thesis, the measurement instrumentation connected to a dry BR sensor was confirmed to affect the photovoltage response measured by using voltage amplifiers. Changing of the input impedance of the measurement instrumentation was shown to alter a part of the measured photovoltage response. The photocurrent measurements using transimpedance amplifier and the presented electrical equivalent circuit were used to show that the photocurrent measurements have no significant effect on the photoelectric response. The photocurrent was shown to be a derivate of the photovoltage response measured from the dry BR sensor when it was compared to the response measured with a voltage amplifier. This confirmed that another part of the photovoltage response was not affected by the measurement instrumentation. The time-variant behavior of the dry BR sensor was confirmed in both the photocurrent and the photovoltage measurements. This was caused by the fact that the capacitance of the dry BR sensor changes with the excitation light intensity.

Reaktorisydämen valvontajärjestelmän modernisointi Olkiluodon kiehutusvesilaitoksella

Reaktorisydämen valvonnalla varmistetaan, että polttoaineelta vaaditut termiset marginaalit toteutuvat ja polttoaineen suojakuori säilyy ehjänä. Olkiluodon kiehutusvesilaitoksen nykyinen sydämen valvontajärjestelmä koostuu SIMULATE-3-sydänsimulaattoriohjelmasta, reaktorisydämen instrumentoinnista, termisen tehon laskentaohjelmasta, tiedonkeruuohjelmista ja käynnistysautomatiikasta. Uusi järjestelmä koostuu näiden lisäksi GARDEL-ohjelmasta, joka on kehitetty kevytvesireaktoreiden sydämen käytön suunnitteluun ja valvontaan. GARDEL käyttää laskentaan samoja ohjelmia, jotka ovat jo Olkiluodon kiehutusvesilaitoksella käytössä. Tämän työn tarkoituksena oli verrata nykyistä ja uutta sydämen valvontajärjestelmää Olkiluodon kiehutusvesilaitoksella. Työssä tutkittiin LPRM-detektorien kalibroinnin jälkeisen datan käsittelyä, palamapäivitystä, stabiilisuuslaskentaa ja adaptiivisia menetelmiä. Järjestelmien vertailuun käytettiin Olkiluoto 2 -laitosyksiköltä käyttöjaksolta 31 (2011–2012) saatuja laskentuloksia. Tulosten perusteella havaittiin uuden järjestelmän laskennassa yksittäisiä virheitä, jotka tulee korjata. Lisäksi uuden järjestelmän toiminnasta tarvitaan lisäselvitystä.

Competence in intensive and critical care nursing - development of a basic assessment scale for graduating nursing students

Intensive and critical care nursing is a speciality in its own right and with its own nature within the nursing profession. This speciality poses its own demands for nursing competencies. Intensive and critical care nursing is focused on severely ill patients and their significant others. The patients are comprehensively cared for, constantly monitored and their vital functions are sustained artificially. The main goal is to win time to cure the cause of the patient’s situation or illness. The purpose of this empirical study was i) to describe and define competence and competence requirements in intensive and critical care nursing, ii) to develop a basic measurement scale for competence assessment in intensive and critical care nursing for graduating nursing students, and iii) to describe and evaluate graduating nursing students’ basic competence in intensive and critical care nursing by seeking the reference basis of self-evaluated basic competence in intensive and critical care nursing from ICU nurses. However, the main focus of this study was on the outcomes of nursing education in this nursing speciality. The study was carried out in different phases: basic exploration of competence (phase 1 and 2), instrumentation of competence (phase 3) and evaluation of competence (phase 4). Phase 1 (n=130) evaluated graduating nursing students’ basic biological and physiological knowledge and skills for working in intensive and critical care with Basic Knowledge Assessment Tool version 5 (BKAT-5, Toth 2012). Phase 2 focused on defining competence in intensive and critical care nursing with the help of literature review (n=45 empirical studies) as well as competence requirements in intensive and critical care nursing with the help of experts (n=45 experts) in a Delphi study. In phase 3 the scale Intensive and Critical Care Nursing Competence Scale (ICCN-CS) was developed and tested twice (pilot test 1: n=18 students and n=12 nurses; pilot test 2: n=56 students and n=54 nurses). Finally, in phase 4, graduating nursing students’ competence was evaluated with ICCN-CS and BKAT version 7 (Toth 2012). In order to develop a valid assessment scale of competence for graduating nursing students and to evaluate and establish the competence of graduating nursing students, empirical data were retrieved at the same time from both graduating nursing students (n=139) and ICU nurses (n=431). Competence can be divided into clinical and general professional competence. It can be defined as a specific knowledge base, skill base, attitude and value base and experience base of nursing and the personal base of an intensive and critical care nurse. Personal base was excluded in this self-evaluation based scale. The ICCN-CS-1 consists of 144 items (6 sum variables). Finally, it became evident that the experience base of competence is not a suitable sum variable in holistic intensive and critical care competence scale for graduating nursing students because of their minor experience in this special nursing area. ICCN-CS-1 is a reliable and tolerably valid scale for use among graduating nursing students and ICU nurses Among students, basic competence of intensive and critical care nursing was self-rated as good by 69%, as excellent by 25% and as moderate by 6%. However, graduating nursing students’ basic biological and physiological knowledge and skills for working in intensive and critical care were poor. The students rated their clinical and professional competence as good, and their knowledge base and skill base as moderate. They gave slightly higher ratings for their knowledge base than skill base. Differences in basic competence emerged between graduating nursing students and ICU nurses. The students’ self-ratings of both their basic competence and clinical and professional competence were significantly lower than the nurses’ ratings. The students’ self-ratings of their knowledge and skill base were also statistically significantly lower than nurses’ ratings. However, both groups reported the same attitude and value base, which was excellent. The strongest factor explaining students’ conception of their competence was their experience of autonomy in nursing. Conclusions: Competence in intensive and critical care nursing is a multidimensional concept. Basic competence in intensive and critical care nursing can be measured with self-evaluation based scale but alongside should be used an objective evaluation method. Graduating nursing students’ basic competence in intensive and critical care nursing is good but their knowledge and skill base are moderate. Especially the biological and physiological knowledge base is poor. Therefore in future in intensive and critical care nursing education should be focused on both strengthening students’ biological and physiological knowledge base and on strengthening their overall skill base. Practical implications are presented for nursing education, practice and administration. In future, research should focus on education methods and contents, mentoring of clinical practice and orientation programmes as well as further development of the scale.

Ion selective electrodes for determination of low and ultra low concentrations of lead (II) in natural waters

Att övervaka förekomsten av giftiga komponenter i naturliga vattendrag är nödvändigt för människans välmående. Eftersom halten av föroreningar i naturens ekosystem bör hållas möjligast låg, pågår en ständig jakt efter kemiska analysmetoder med allt lägre detektionsgränser. I dagens läge görs miljöanalyser med dyr och sofistikerad instrumentering som kräver mycket underhåll. Jonselektiva elektroder har flera goda egenskaper som t.ex. bärbarhet, låg energiförbrukning, och dessutom är de relativt kostnadseffektiva. Att använda jonselektiva elektroder vid miljöanalyser är möjligt om deras känslighetsområde kan utvidgas genom att sänka deras detektionsgränser. För att sänka detektionsgränsen för Pb(II)-selektiva elektroder undersöktes olika typer av jonselektiva membran som baserades på polyakrylat-kopolymerer, PVC och PbS/Ag2S. Fast-fas elektroder med membran av PbS/Ag2S är i allmänhet enklare och mer robusta än konventionella elektroder vid spårämnesanalys av joniska föroreningar. Fast-fas elektrodernas detektionsgräns sänktes i detta arbete med en nyutvecklad galvanostatisk polariseringsmetod och de kunde sedan framgångsrikt användas för kvantitativa bestämningar av bly(II)-halter i miljöprov som hade samlats in i den finska skärgården nära tidigare industriområden. Analysresultaten som erhölls med jonselektiva elektroder bekräftades med andra analytiska metoder. Att sänka detektionsgränsen m.hj.a. den nyutvecklade polariseringsmetoden möjliggör bestämning av låga och ultra-låga blyhalter som inte kunde nås med klassisk potentiometri. Den verkliga fördelen med att använda dessa blyselektiva elektroder är möjligheten att utföra mätningar i obehandlade miljöprov trots närvaron av fasta partiklar vilket inte är möjligt att göra med andra analysmetoder. Jag väntar mig att den nyutvecklade polariseringsmetoden kommer att sätta en trend i spårämnesanalys med jonselektiva elektroder.
