Yesterday I had presented some work on design friction and nudging during a seminar at SCSE @ NTU for the PhD candidates. The presentation was based on an extended version of the presentation done at the ECCE Conference earlier this year with a lot of added theory and discussion around friction in design. It also […]
Back at the School of Computer Science and Engineering at NTU. Have been here for a week now as a visiting scholar! Great to be back at the university ranked second in the world in computer science in 2019. I have had the chance to meet up with old colleagues and with the PhD students […]
In just a few hours we’re leaving for a 3 week stay at NTU in Singapore. I’m exited to meet up with old collegues at SCSE and engage in interesting discussions and research during this time. I will also meet with two of my students on the MSc program in Interaction Technology and Design at […]
During the last part of my stay at NTU under the STINT Teaching Sabbatical in 2018, we discussed a future invitation as a visiting scholar at NTU and the School of Computer Sience and Engeneering during 2019 or beginning of 2020. Now everything is set and I will go back as Visiting Scholar to NTU for a […]
One of my main tasks that we decided on before coming to Singapore, was that I would take part of planning and executing a new course called Physics for Computing. This is a course that had been in planning for years, but didn’t become reality until 2018. The idea is that the students in computer […]
Yesterday, I was, once again, back in the recording studio. This time to record short video lectures introducing Classical Mechanics. These videos are, in other words, just recordings of the LT lectures that had in the beginning of the course Physics for Computing. I had to redo the lectures a little bit to fit the […]
NTU have had a vision, for some time now, on working towards Flipped Classroom with having most of their material online and using the student-professor time for actually working with the material instead of delivering it. I believe that flipped Classroom is great. However, I do not believe that the traditional lecture is a waste […]
I had the privilege to be in charge of the content for the eLearning week on one of the courses that I’m teaching here at NTU. This meaning that the content had to be recorded and put up online as eLearning material. This was a huge opportunity to learn about the recording facilities at NTU. […]
According to the recent US News Education Ranking, NTU’s Computer Science, as subject, is ranked no. 3 in the World, before MIT, Stanford, Harvard and Berkeley. I must say that I feel a bit honoured to be chosen to work at the School of Computer Science and Engineering (SCSE) @ NTU next semester. It will be a […]
During the first couple of days of my recce trip, I choose to stay on the NTU Campus. This was a great opportunity to get a first glimpse of how I would be to live on campus during fall (ok, so they don’t really have seasons in Singapore, so let’s just call it the first […]
