How can we work together and learn? And what skills must we posess to connect the physical and virtual worlds? In this session, you will meet three different perspectives on the future of collaboration and learning.

She divides her time between an associate professorship at the University of Bergen where she teaches software craftsmanship, and developing software as a consultant for Kantega. She’s been involved in teaching several courses and is a co-founder of Nerdschool, one of Bergen’s largest meetups which teaches basic software craftsmanship skills.
