Om mig
I conduct research in the intersection between conversation analysis, ethnomethodology and the learning sciences. My interests concern formal education as well as workplace and everyday settings. I defended my PhD thesis (a study of design reviews in architectural education) in 2010, and has since been involved in various projects, including studies of dentistry education, professional radiology, participatory design, and workplace interaction and learning. The overarching theme of my research can be said to be the development, display and communication of knowledge and expertise in interaction. This implies an encompassing methodology - video-based analyses in combination with elements of ethnography - in which organizational, material, embodied and linguistic facets of interaction are taken into consideration.
