Learning with AI

Research, teaching, and outreach on generative AI and learning

Since 2023 I've worked across research, teaching, and public outreach on one question: how does generative AI change learning? This page collects the different threads of that work — a forthcoming book, a research article, a course for teachers, a blog, and a podcast.

Book

Lære med KI (forthcoming, Universitetsforlaget)

A book on AI and learning, co-written with Andreas D. Haraldsrud, aimed at teachers. It draws on cognitive learning psychology — cognitive load, scaffolding, metacognition — to give a grounded, classroom-relevant account of what generative AI changes and what it doesn't.

Research

How Physics Professors Use and Frame Generative AI Tools

Skogvoll, V., & Odden, T. O. (2026). Based on interviews with 12 physics professors at UiO, this study identifies 19 distinct practices for using AI in teaching and research, organized into epistemic frames. Published in European Journal of Physics, 47(2), 025713.

Teaching teachers

Profag KI-kurs

A four-part course for teachers, developed with Andreas Haraldsrud at KURT (UiO). Covers generative AI fundamentals, teaching activities and differentiation, programming with AI, and assessment. Run each semester since 2025, with strong participant feedback on its classroom relevance.

Blog

LæreMedKI.no

A blog where I write, in Norwegian, about AI and learning — for teachers, in plain language.

Podcast

KIosk

A podcast where I talk to teachers who have actually tried something with AI in their own classroom — what worked, what didn't, and what they'd do differently.
