Idag har vår faglærer, også kalt Norges første VR-professor bursdag! 🥳🥳🥳

Ekaterina er adrenalinjunkie, sci-fi fan og sertifisert dykker. 🐠

Hun sier at det beste med å jobbe med videreutdanning er at hun elsker å lære av studentene sine, deres unike historier og perspektiver til feltet hun jobber med. 🕹️

Hennes anbefaling til voksne studenter er; "Det er aldri for sent å følge dine drømmer og lære noe nytt!" 💡
Hun tok først vanlig dykkersertifikat og senere 'Advanced Open Water Diver' i den flotte alderen av 47. 🤿
Hennes neste utfordring er å få førerkort, helst før hun fyller 50. 🚗

Ekaterina Prasolova-Førland er spesialist i virtuell og utvidet virkelighet (VR/AR) for læring og trening, leder for forskningsgruppa IMTEL (Innovative Immersive Technologies for learning) og professor ved Institutt for pedagogikk og livslang læring.

Gratulerer med bursdag! 🎉 Bildet viser Ekaterina dykke i Madeira-akvariet, juni 2024.
