Exterme users (25.5.2023). "Extreme User Interviews is a method employed to understand user responses and insights at two opposite ends of the usage spectrum. An ‘extreme’ participant should exhibit sharpened traits of your target users.

Lean Canvas (25.5.2023). "Business plans take too long to write, are seldom updated, and almost never read by others.

It’s always important to distinguish amongst these two levels (project and final service outcomes) as they generate different types of values. Once the metrics are defined, it’s also important to identify a strategy for their measurement (how data is collected and when), keeping in mind the importance of accessing that information in several moments of the process, and being able to use it to adjust the workflow and features developed." ( SDR 25.5.2023.)

Oikeustapausharjoitusten ja -analyysin ratkaisuohjeet

  Kuvat Margit Mannila Oikeudellisen ratkaisutoiminnan perusrakenne Oikeudellista ratkaisutoimintaa eli oikeudellisten ongelmien tai tapausten ratkaisemista voidaan yksinkertaistetusti kuvata niin sanotun subsumption avulla. Tämä subsumptiopäättely rakentuu seuraavasti: Kuvataan oikeudellisen normin (esim. lain) oikeusohje. ( ylälause ) Kuvataan ongelmatilanteen tosiasiat. ( alalause ) Sovelletaan oikeusohjetta kyseiseen tapaukseen sijoittamalla alalauseen sisältämät tosiasiat ylälauseen tunnusmerkistöön jolloin saadaan johtopäätös. (Anni Tuomela 7.6.2017) Tämä on ns. syllogismimalli (ks. Virolainen & Martikainen 2010, 229).
