Areas of responsibility

Teaching, research and development work connected to biology and science education in both teacher education and school. I am subject coordinator for the Natural Sciences in the Teacher Education program (years 1 -10) and leader of the Research group in Science Education.

I am also a participant in the group working to preserve and promote biological diversity on campus. I have been a co-editor of the report BIOMANG - Measures to preserve and promote biological diversity on campus Gimlemoen and led the related student project Hotspot-UiA.

Teaching

I teach science education and biology in several subjects at the Department of Natural Sciences, mainly for students in our teacher education programs. I also participate in development project in collaboration with local schools.

Research

I am interested in historical and phenomenological approaches to science teaching and, in addition, how we can work with diverse scientific practices in meaningful ways  in school. In particular, I am interested in how children and young people can learn about biological diversity through experience and various observational practices. I am curious about questions such as: What does it mean to learn to see nature? What is being given attention? What do the students have to practice and what is significant in these experiences?
