I work as a teacher at the landscape architecture program.
As a teacher at the landscape architecture program, I plan and teach in courses mainly in year 1 and 2 (urban planning, space analysis, design, model building, drawing technique and general skills). I also tutor in studio courses and the bachelor's thesis course in year 3, and studio courses at advanced level.
In coopreation with Åsa Bensch, SLU Alnarp, I have initiated the project Talking About Teaching. During 2017-18, workshops were conducted where teachers from Alnarp and Ultuna met to exchange experiences. From the project a new forum has been created: SLU LANDSCAPE Teaching Synergy Forum. The purpose is to discuss teaching, exchange ideas, share work materials and explore collaboration opportunities.
The teachers' teams from Alnarp and Ultuna meet each year during SLU LANDSCAPE Days, and as of 2018, Talking About Teaching workshops will be conducted annually.
