Research
My research interests concern educational work, language education, minority language revitalisation, and applied linguistics. In my dissertation, I studied Swedish upper secondary school pupils' use of machine translation and other online resources during essay writing in Spanish L3.
Currently, my research focuses on the revitalisation of Ladino or Judaeo-Spanish, an endangered minority language spoken by members of the Sephardic diaspora. Further information about this research can be found on the KAU Ladino website.
I have also conducted research on the development of school libraries, internationalisation of teacher training programmes, and general working conditions for language teachers.
