I have had experience in most forms of teaching at the university level. I have been a teaching assistant, a thesis instructor and even a lecturer.
While I do like all forms of teaching, given the choice I tend to enjoy supervising theses the most.

Formal education in pedagogy

Currently I have completed 15 credits in university pedagogy (the basic course).
I aim to continue my studies in the subject.

Science Education

As of 2020 I have been a member of the steering group of UniJunior, a cross-disciplinary project funded by Svenska Kulturfonden and Stiftelsen Brita Maria Renlunds minne and led by Professor Gunilla Holm.
The aim of the project is to increase the curiosity of children in elementary school towards science and research by organising a series of interdisciplinary workshops in Swedish once per month during the fall and spring of 2021-2022.

My part in the project consists of approving and giving feedback on the planned workshops and organising about one per term. This blog post talks a bit more about the first workshop that I was in charge of organising.

Master’s Thesis

I have supervised and instructed the following master’s theses:
