About

CV
I am an associate professor in software engineering. I do research in digitalization in service organizations, in particular within healthcare and social and welfare services. I publish within the fields of CSCW (computer-supported cooperative work) and information systems. I mainly use interpretative qualitative methods in my research. I also teach courses in research methods for computer science students at MSC and PhD levels, and do research on pedagogical aspects of my teaching. Please contact me for cooperation. If you are a student you can see a link to my master's degree projects in the teaching section of my profile.

Competencies

  • Computer supported cooperation
  • Digitalization
  • HCI
  • Health informatics
  • Human machine interaction
  • Inclusive design
  • Information systems
  • Innovation in the public sector
  • Multi-sided Platforms
  • Welfare technology

Research

I have been doing research in digital transformation (under different banners) since 1995. My research falls within the research fields of CSCW (computer-supported cooperative work) and information systems. I use mainly interpretative qualitative research methods. I am involve in large case studies with our partners within service organizations, in particular public healthcare and social services. I am also involved in NTNU programs that promote collaboration between NTNU and public sector, see NTNU-NAV-HMN samarbeidsprogram, and TRD 3.0. You can find out more about my research by visiting the web pages of our research group Digital Publics (see below).

Research groups:

  • Digital Publics: This is our research group’s web pages. You will find the most updated information about our research and other activities here.
  • ISSE: ISSE (Information Systems and Software Engineering) group is my research unit at the department of computer science.

Research projects:

  • SustainDiT: SustainDiT is a multidisciplinary project about sustainable digital transformations.
  • DICO: Building employee competences for digital transformation.
  • PlatVel: PlatVel is a project about the implementation of a healthcare information system, called Helseplattformen, in the region of central Norway.

For a more complete list of my projects see Digital Publics.

Teaching

I teach research methods at master’s and PhD levels. I supervise master and PhD students within digital transformation, information systems, and CSCW (computer-supported cooperative work). I do research on pedagogical aspects of teaching research methods. Contact me if you teach research methods, or if you are a student who wants to do a master’s project within my areas of research.

  • Research methods courses IT3010, DT8111, og TDT39: I teach these course with colleagues Marius Mikalsen and the Digital Publics group.
  • Software engineering course TDT4140: I am involved in some assessment work in this coures that is taught by my colleague Torgeir Dingsøyr.
  • Master project supervision: I supervise several master students each year. See my master projects, and contact me if you are interested in my projects or have a relevant idea for a master’s degree project that you think can interest me. See this page for some examples of master projects we have supervised earlier.
  • Supervision of PhD students: I supervise several PhD students in Digital Publics.
