Changing societies also place requirements on education: the number of atypical learners is growing all the time, and lifelong careers have been changed to lifelong learning. Traditional education approaches do not support part-time learners or lifelong learning; personalizing the learning process for every student separately is too laborious. In this paper, we study a flexible, personalized learning approach and an information system (Wihi) to support it. Wihi is a thesis management tool for students to plan and schedule their theses and for the thesis supervisor to centrally monitor the progress of different theses. In addition, it allows curriculum management to follow the whole thesis situation. Although Wihi was developed for a specific need, the personalized learning assumptions behind it are also applicable in other education cases.

As always in a digital transformation, the tasks, practices, rules and processes must also be changed. The problem is that too often the technology point of view is stressed, and pedagogical management and organizational change are neglected [1]. However, especially in developing economies, to make successful and sustainable digital transformation in education, even having technological, pedagogical and organizational change is not enough. There must be supporting organizations taking care of implemented solutions and further developing them whenever needed. In developing economies, there are examples of successful education digitalization projects where new information systems have been taken into use, and the schools have changed their organization and pedagogical approaches. However, after the funding of the development project ends, no one is left to support and maintain the systems. Over time, when problems occur, the system gradually deteriorates. In the worst case, classrooms full of computers are abandoned, although the teachers found the system useful. As a solution, we propose an alternative approach to make sustainable and persistent digital transformation in education. We consider it important to take care of not only information system development (or acquisition) and changes to pedagogy and organization but also the ecosystem supporting the change. The education ecosystem must include organizations getting financial benefits (profits) from taking care of the digitalization operations implemented but also should include those receiving benefits from supporting further development of education digitalization. Therefore, our main research question is: “What is the role of the education ecosystem in education digitalization, and how should it be taken into account in education digitalization projects?” Building a completely new ecosystem is challenging, and in our proposition several approaches are used to accomplish only the most critical objectives with minimal effort. Firstly, the steps of education digitalization must be understood: not everything is needed at once. In the very beginning, when schools are taking their first steps with education digitalization, there is limited need for expertise and skills. Secondly, supporting organizations do not have to start from scratch. Although there might not be any companies already supporting education digitalization, there might be organizations with enough knowledge to help. Those organizations should be persuaded to test new business models. Thirdly, there are several ways to support local startups and encourage them to find business in the education sector, and here the experiences from other countries can be applied. In the Eduditra (education digital transformation) project, we have cooperated with two education organizations, Eduix Ltd. (Finland) and Glowdom (Namibia) to start education digital transformation in Namibia. Here we introduce preliminary results and experiences from the first year of our project. We also present preliminary information about new stages of the project.

Rapid urban growth has influenced the Land Surface Temperatures (LST) causing Urban Heat Island (UHI) effect. The present research is an effort to estimate the LULC changes and their influence on the Land Surface Temperature mainly using remotely sensed satellite data and Geographic Information System (GIS). Satellite data from Landsat 5 TM data was considered for the year 2010 and Landsat 8 OLI/TIRs data was taken for years 2015 and 2020. Supervised LULC classification was performed for May 2010, May 2015 and May 2020 using the QGIS-SCP plugin. LST temperatures were estimated using thermal infrared bands of the satellite imagery. Comparison of LULC classification of 2010, 2015 and 2020 reveals that the built class is increasing and vegetation is shrinking. A positive correlation has been noticed between increasing population and urbanization. Population density and area of built class/person is increased over the decade. The study of the LST reveals that the built class has the highest temperatures and several hot spots denoting the highest temperatures are observed over the built class showing that it is the biggest contributor to UHI effect. The integration of remote sensing techniques and GIS is an efficient tool for monitoring and evaluation of urban expansion and its influence on LST.

Digital transformation (DT) is used to describe the fundamental realignment of business due to digitalisation. Many heavy engineering companies geared towards process-driven manufacturing of hardware have chosen to rely on external expertise to help them realise new business models through software solutions and technologies. In contrast to some years back, IT consultancies are no longer in the business of providing ‘pairs of hands’, but coherent solutions developed by teams of experts. This thesis wishes to analyse the current state and the elements of the offering defined as a team model, with the purpose of looking into the future and providing insight into potential improvements, so as to fuel growth. The theoretical section explores the concepts of digital transformation and Industry 4.0 in the context of heavy engineering. The team model is then introduced and analysed against the theories of team composition. Based on the literature, a conceptual framework is constructed. The empirical part consists of gathering data in the form of semi-structured interviews and questionnaires to gain an understanding of the landscape the commissioning company operates in. The data is validated by a comparative study between two heavy engineering companies, both clients of the commissioning IT consultancy. The study then proposes DT maturity index for measuring and acting on. To conclude, the thesis investigates certain parameters of the team model, which can be adjusted to respond to the issues raised by the DT maturity index. The objective of this study is to discover whether measuring the DT maturity of clients of IT consultancies can improve the implementation of the team model and consequently add value to all parties concerned. In conjunction with the applied approach of the research, this thesis puts to the test the notion that while DT might be an elusive concept, a consistent, structured, and people-centric change management yields the most sustainable results.

As always in a digital transformation, the tasks, practices, rules and processes must also be changed. The problem is that too often the technology point of view is stressed, and pedagogical management and organizational change are neglected [1]. However, especially in developing economies, to make successful and sustainable digital transformation in education, even having technological, pedagogical and organizational change is not enough. There must be supporting organizations taking care of implemented solutions and further developing them whenever needed. In developing economies, there are examples of successful education digitalization projects where new information systems have been taken into use, and the schools have changed their organization and pedagogical approaches. However, after the funding of the development project ends, no one is left to support and maintain the systems. Over time, when problems occur, the system gradually deteriorates. In the worst case, classrooms full of computers are abandoned, although the teachers found the system useful. As a solution, we propose an alternative approach to make sustainable and persistent digital transformation in education. We consider it important to take care of not only information system development (or acquisition) and changes to pedagogy and organization but also the ecosystem supporting the change. The education ecosystem must include organizations getting financial benefits (profits) from taking care of the digitalization operations implemented but also should include those receiving benefits from supporting further development of education digitalization. Therefore, our main research question is: “What is the role of the education ecosystem in education digitalization, and how should it be taken into account in education digitalization projects?” Building a completely new ecosystem is challenging, and in our proposition several approaches are used to accomplish only the most critical objectives with minimal effort. Firstly, the steps of education digitalization must be understood: not everything is needed at once. In the very beginning, when schools are taking their first steps with education digitalization, there is limited need for expertise and skills. Secondly, supporting organizations do not have to start from scratch. Although there might not be any companies already supporting education digitalization, there might be organizations with enough knowledge to help. Those organizations should be persuaded to test new business models. Thirdly, there are several ways to support local startups and encourage them to find business in the education sector, and here the experiences from other countries can be applied. In the Eduditra (education digital transformation) project, we have cooperated with two education organizations, Eduix Ltd. (Finland) and Glowdom (Namibia) to start education digital transformation in Namibia. Here we introduce preliminary results and experiences from the first year of our project. We also present preliminary information about new stages of the project.

Rapid urban growth has influenced the Land Surface Temperatures (LST) causing Urban Heat Island (UHI) effect. The present research is an effort to estimate the LULC changes and their influence on the Land Surface Temperature mainly using remotely sensed satellite data and Geographic Information System (GIS). Satellite data from Landsat 5 TM data was considered for the year 2010 and Landsat 8 OLI/TIRs data was taken for years 2015 and 2020. Supervised LULC classification was performed for May 2010, May 2015 and May 2020 using the QGIS-SCP plugin. LST temperatures were estimated using thermal infrared bands of the satellite imagery. Comparison of LULC classification of 2010, 2015 and 2020 reveals that the built class is increasing and vegetation is shrinking. A positive correlation has been noticed between increasing population and urbanization. Population density and area of built class/person is increased over the decade. The study of the LST reveals that the built class has the highest temperatures and several hot spots denoting the highest temperatures are observed over the built class showing that it is the biggest contributor to UHI effect. The integration of remote sensing techniques and GIS is an efficient tool for monitoring and evaluation of urban expansion and its influence on LST.

Digital transformation (DT) is used to describe the fundamental realignment of business due to digitalisation. Many heavy engineering companies geared towards process-driven manufacturing of hardware have chosen to rely on external expertise to help them realise new business models through software solutions and technologies. In contrast to some years back, IT consultancies are no longer in the business of providing ‘pairs of hands’, but coherent solutions developed by teams of experts. This thesis wishes to analyse the current state and the elements of the offering defined as a team model, with the purpose of looking into the future and providing insight into potential improvements, so as to fuel growth. The theoretical section explores the concepts of digital transformation and Industry 4.0 in the context of heavy engineering. The team model is then introduced and analysed against the theories of team composition. Based on the literature, a conceptual framework is constructed. The empirical part consists of gathering data in the form of semi-structured interviews and questionnaires to gain an understanding of the landscape the commissioning company operates in. The data is validated by a comparative study between two heavy engineering companies, both clients of the commissioning IT consultancy. The study then proposes DT maturity index for measuring and acting on. To conclude, the thesis investigates certain parameters of the team model, which can be adjusted to respond to the issues raised by the DT maturity index. The objective of this study is to discover whether measuring the DT maturity of clients of IT consultancies can improve the implementation of the team model and consequently add value to all parties concerned. In conjunction with the applied approach of the research, this thesis puts to the test the notion that while DT might be an elusive concept, a consistent, structured, and people-centric change management yields the most sustainable results.
