My current research explores how the right to education can be ensured for students who, for various reasons, are unable to physically attend school. One method tested with students experiencing problematic school absenteeism鈥攁bsences that may jeopardize their ability to meet academic standards鈥攊s the use of an AV1-robot. The idea is that digital participation through the AV1- robot will support the student鈥檚 journey back to school. One key question is how teachers design their instruction when an AV1 robot is in the classroom and a student participates digitally. I also investigate students鈥� experiences of joining classroom instruction through the AV1-robot and how this might either foster a connection with or alienation from the school鈥檚 physical environment
Teaching
Since the early 2010s, I have been actively teaching educational science courses within the Primary Teacher Program. My teaching focuses on issues related to democracy, human rights, and sustainable development. I also supervise degree projects in the Preschool Teacher Program, the Primary Teacher Program, the Special 一本道 Program, and the Master鈥檚 Program in 一本道al Work with a focus on early childhood learning.
