Research Interests:
Olsson's research explores theoretical dimensions of education through the lens of British philosopher Iris Murdoch. Her doctoral thesis investigated moral development through Murdoch's concept of 'unselfing'—a process of transcending selfish concerns to perceive reality more clearly. In 2024, she launched a new research project examining assessment practices in teaching placements, aiming to bridge theoretical and practical components of teacher education.
Teaching & Development Projects:
She specializes in Operational Training and mentoring teacher education students. Olsson co-leads the Strengthened Professional Development of Teacher Students project, a collaboration between Örebro University, Hallsberg Municipality, and Sydnärke Education Association. This initiative integrates teacher education curricula with real-world school practices to enhance professional development for both teachers and students.
Publications:
Her scholarship spans philosophical pedagogy, imaginative learning environments, and comparative educational studies, with publications in journals like Journal of Philosophy of Education and Nordic journal for pedagogy and criticism, as well as book chapters and conference contributions.
