Background: School and university education. I have university teaching and research experiences from Denmark and the UK.
I am particularly interested in how we can internationalise the university curriculum and develop international collaborations which enhance the teacher and learner experience, how we can address bias in our courses and interactions, how we can enable staff and students to experience inclusive teaching and learning experiences and how we can leverage critical and creative thinking through AI.
I provide support in my role as a cohort leader for the Lecturer Training Program (LTP), through shorter staff development courses and as a consultant. As the latter, I especially value opportunities to collaborate with teachers and leaders on ways to integrate inclusive, international and bias-aware teaching and learning and to facilitate ways teachers can leverage students’ critical and creative thinking using AI. An example: I support SDU teachers developing international and intercultural courses and learning experiences for SDU and European students through EPICUR, the University European Alliance.
My engagement with university pedagogy and internationalisation leads me to work with teachers like Steffen Kjær Johansen. Steffen has among other things collaborated with SDU UP and EPICUR regarding developing international collaborations with European colleagues and students. He mentions that the collaboration with SDU UP and EPICUR has been very rewarding:
A further example: In my consultant role, I support teachers with a wide range of pedagogic challenges. Saida Soltani (SAMF, Sønderborg), a recent LTP participant has drawn on input from courses on facilitation and revised her course on enabling students to be actively engaged through flipped learning and facilitation approaches.
