Personal profile
Teaching profile
I teach digital history at the bachelor's and master's level in the History program at Aalborg University. Digital history deals with the opportunities and challenges that arise when historical material is digitized, particularly in relation to archival science, dissemination, and research. I am especially interested in the methodological and epistemological considerations that follow when source material is transformed into digital data. My teaching therefore relates to the use of digital methods such as programming within the field of history.
