About
I am associate professor of education at the Department of Primary and Secondary Teacher Education. Before joining Oslo Metropolitan University, I held positions at the Department of Pedagogical, Curricular and Professional Studies, University of Gothenburg (Sweden) and the Department of Pedagogy and School, University College Copenhagen (Denmark). I hold a PhD (2017) from the Department of Nordic Studies and Linguistics, University of Copenhagen (Denmark).
I research the roles of teachers and teaching in school and society. My main areas of work are: teacher professionalism, teachers' learning, identity and activism; multilingualism in education, multilingual literacies, language and literacy pedagogy; classroom discourse, participation and learning. I use comparative and ethnographic methodologies which I combine with other research methods, including collaborative approaches.
