Teaching

In addition to teaching, I have a university pedagogy training from 2019, from the University of Oslo. The pedagogy training, known as the teaching and learning in higher education, is a foundational program for academic staff in Norway. The training program aims at improving teaching and pedagogical skills. It is planned over 150 hours, and is composed of an introductory module of 120 hours, and an elective module of 30 hours covering research supervision.
