About
I teach physics, technology, and science education in the teacher education programme, and supervise bachelor- and master students. My research interests include use of models, modelling, simulation, and programming in science education as well as research-based science teacher education. My research is part of the TRELIS (Teachers’ Research Literacy for Science teaching) and MASCOT (Mathematics, Science and Computational Thinking) projects. Before teacher education, my background is in scientific modelling, and I have a PhD in physics from the University of Oslo working with simulation of radiation damage to biomolecules.

Ongoing research projects
-
Empowered
The research project aims to develop innovative practices, methods and tools that promote ‘digital empowerment’ in schools and teacher education.
Completed research projects
-
Flipped classroom in science education (FiNa)
Flipped classroom in science education (FiNa) aims at developing and investigating learning design based on digitally supported flipped classroom in order to facilitate student active learning.
-
Mathematics, Science and Computational Thinking (MASCOT)
MASCOT is an interdisciplinary, collaborative and innovative research collaboration that aims to develop knowledge about teaching, learning and assessment processes of computational thinking in teacher education and school.
-
Teachers’ Research Literacy for Science teaching (TRELIS)
Project TRELIS aims to prepare research literate science teachers who are able to integrate research-based knowledge with classroom experience to develop rich science learning opportunities for pupils.
