Short presentation
I am a senior lecturer at the Department of Education. My research interests focuses primarily on language use in mathematics and science. I am a member of the research groups Studies of Language Practices (STOLP), Comparative Didactics and Mathematics Education. I mainly teach courses in mathematics and education for primary and secondary teachers but also in-service courses for teachers. I am also an experienced primary and secondary teacher in mathematics and science.
