About
About Me
I am the program director and lecturer for the three-year vocational teacher education program at NTNU in Trondheim, affiliated with the Department of Teacher Education. My vocational background is rooted in carpentry, where I have worked as a skilled worker and construction manager on various projects. I have extensive experience from secondary school as a subject teacher, contact teacher, and department head.
Areas of Interest
My vocational didactic approach combines theoretical knowledge and practical experience to create a meaningful learning process. I place great emphasis on developing relationships, trust, and communication to support students' learning and development.
Research and Development
I have contributed to several development projects and restructuring of study programs at NTNU and have participated in international projects that have provided me with insights into interdisciplinary and intercultural competence. My research focuses on linking theory and practice, and I have published several scientific articles and given presentations at international conferences.
Goals
My goal is to promote a learning culture where students see the value of linking theory and practice and are encouraged to be critical thinkers, creative problem solvers, and independent professionals. Furthermore, I aim to contribute to the sustainable development of all vocational teacher education in Norway.
