Anna Augusta Fornø

Profile

I am a PhD fellow at DTU Engineering Technology (Section for Engineering Education Research) and DTU Entrepreneurship.

My PhD project is investigates interdisciplinary teams and their collaborative practices, with a focus on how diversity is connected to and impacts inclusion, equity and participation in the team. The project is in collaboration with TU Eindhoven.

I have many interests within the field of pedagogy, teaching and learning. My work is mostly focused on how we can develop more democratic and inclusive teaching practises to improve students' participation and learning, as well as boost diversity, equity and inclusion at the university. Another focal point for me is interdisciplinarity and the development of interdisciplinary competencies for future engineers.

I have a Bachelor's in Pedagogy from the University of Copenhagen and a Master's degree from Aalborg University in Learning and Innovative change.

I am responsible for the Teaching Assistants' Education at DTU (offered through DTU LearningLab), where I teach and introduce new TA's at the university to the science behind teaching and learning as well as what it means to be a TA.
