My teaching history started in 1997, when I joined a secondary school as a part-time teacher (teaching math and social science) while I was studying for my Bachelor’s degree in Nepal. After I got a Master’s degree in Geography, I worked as an Assistant Lecturer\u00a0in the Department of Geography Education, Tribhuvan University, Nepal for 18 months (2003 \u2013 2004). There, I was responsible for, and main teacher on,\u00a0courses in GIS, Remote Sensing, Physical Geography,\u00a0and Climatology. In 2004, I moved to Norway to study for my M. Phil. degree. As a student, I was supervising undergraduates in GIS practical lab sessions. As a PhD student, I gave presentations at conferences and the occasional lecture in my field of study for students at UiB.<\/p>\n
During my post-doctoral research period at the University of Bergen, I began to teach GIS and Quantitative Methods courses at the undergraduate\u00a0level in 2012. I played a major role in re-designing the GIS course, in particular to include\u00a0a remote sensing\u00a0module and to prepare hands-on exercises and assignments. In the autumn of 2013 and 2014, I was the course coordinator and main lecturer for the GIS course. I was also involved as a lecturer in a PhD course, The Global Food System, at the Bergen Summer School, UiB in 2013.<\/p>\n
In 2016, I began\u00a0teaching at UiT The Arctic University of Norway. Now, I am teaching GIS and Research Methods\u00a0courses at the undergraduate and Master’s levels, and\u00a0am also responsible for the GIS course. I have also been involved in teaching GIS-related topics\u00a0as part of other Master’s level courses, such as Coastal Planning and Governance and Advances in Aquaculture.\u00a0 I have designed and developed a Master\u2019s-level GIS course (FSK-3012: Geographical Information Systems for Coastal and Marine Resource Management<\/a>), which\u00a0started running in autumn 2018.<\/p>\n An overview of my teaching history\u00a0can be\u00a0found here,<\/a> in tabular form.<\/p>\n Teaching history| Basic repertoire <\/a>| Assessment methods<\/a> | Ethical dimension<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" My teaching history started in 1997, when I joined a secondary school as a part-time teacher (teaching math and social science) while I was studying for my Bachelor’s degree in Nepal.
