Current research

Language Socialization, literacy and narrative studies. I have recently completed a large monograph on the theoretical and methodological underpinnings of Language Socialization (2016). I have just completed a text book on linguistic approaches to narrativity. I am currently interested in researching the relationship between children's private speech, genre performance and literacy development.

Primary fields of research

Sproglig socialisation, narrativitets- og skriftsprogsforskning. Har skrevet ph.d.-afhandling om L.S. Vygotskys sprogpsykologi og den heraf afledte forskning i sammenhængen mellem (børns) tale- og skriftsprog. Har udgivet bøgerne Forskning og undervisning i skriftsprog (2002); Må vi skrive på vores historie? Børns organisering og udnyttelse af skriftsprog (2003); Pædagogisk sprogforskning (2004); Samtalen i psykoterapi (2007), Vær i verden. Intentionelle og interaktionelle mønstre i barnets hverdagsliv (2016), Narrativitet mellem sprog, handling og selv (2016) samt en række artikler inden for de emneområder, der indkredses nedenfor.

Teaching

I teach BA, Master's and PhD courses. I teach courses in language socialization, literacy development and narrativity. I offer supervision within these fields of study as well as in discourse analysis, the linguistic psychology of self, developmental psychology, classroom interaction, the social practices of everyday talk and institutional communication. I am also interested in different aspects of theory of science and history of science.
