Research
My Ph.D. project was about computer-driven tools used for language research and how they could be applied to English subject teaching in Swedish upper-secondary schools. The focus was on the use of corpus-linguistic methods in combination with didactics, and how the data produced by these methods could be used for formative assessment and lesson planning.
I am currently active within the Digital Humanities where I do research aimed toward the literature subject, amongst other topics. I look at linguistic trends, stylometrics, and representation in text. My work within this field mainly deals with the American 1920s and the Jazz Age, focusing on authors such as F. Scott Fitzgerald and Ernest Hemingway.
