Academic career and teaching activities

01/08/2021 – 31/10/2022
UNIVERSITY RESEARCH ASSISTANT – AALBORG UNIVERSITY

My main employment after obtaining my Master's degree was with the cross-department research centre on Sustainable and Digital Transformations (TECH4SDT), where we were developing new approaches to research and innovation. Additionally, I took part in an Erasmus+ project with multiple international partners under the project title "The Post-Human Architect: A Methodology for Educating to Sustainable Social Innovation in Decentralized Areas".

My position also involved teaching responsibilities for both bachelor's and master's students at the Techno-Anthropology education. The following constitutes my teaching portfolio:
First-semester bachelor course in "Socio-technical technology understanding", with lectures on "Sociology of Scientific Knowledge and Social Construction of Technology (SCOT)" and a case on "Welfare technology".
First-semester bachelor course in "Problem-based learning", with three lectures focused respectively on: 1) Study techniques and academic craftmanship; 2) Philosophy of Science; 3) Technology assessments and sustainable technology development.

At Aalborg University the students carry out a project each semester for 10 or 15 ECTS in small groups, where they hand in a report which they have to defend at an oral exam at the end of the semester. It is the supervisor's task to guide them through this process and carry out the final exam. During my employment, I have supervised multiple groups in the first semester of the bachelor's programme and the second semester of the master's programme. Thus, I have experience with supervising students both regarding the content of their problem-based work and how to write academically while conforming to the proper formalities.
