Research related to "The Digital Society"
My research interests relate to Østfold University College's PhD-programme "The Digital Society". In particular, I am interested in studying learning and teaching with Artificial Intelligence, formative feedback with Artifical Intelligence, learning and teaching in digital learning environments, such as MOOCs and smaller-scale online courses. Such a new form of educational delivery influences and challenges learning and teaching practices. Digitalisation provides valuable opportunities for learning, however, it requires teachers to develop new skills and competencies. Teachers are expected to develop their professional digital competence (PDC) to become profound users of digital technology. In addition, educators need to engage in the design of digital learning environments to enhance the development of digital competency with their students. I am interested to study how teachers develop and enact their professional digital competency (PDC), digital agency and identity. Feel free to contact me if you are interested in doing research related to learning and teaching with AI, digital resources and/ or in digital environments.
