Anna is a researcher and practitioner in education, with a particular focus on digitalisation, learning, and assessment.

A recurring theme in her work is the relationship between didactics and technology — not just how technology is used in classrooms, but how it reshapes roles, interactions, and learning outcomes. She is especially interested in how digital tools can be meaningfully integrated into education in ways that support both equity and quality.

Currently, she works with Ifous (Innovation, forskning och utveckling i skolan) where she leads and supports initiatives involving testbeds — structured collaborations between schools and edtech companies.

Within the EmpowerEd project, she is involved in building a European network of edtech testbeds, working closely with GETN (Global Edtech Testbed Network). These networks aim to create knowledge exchange and shared practices for evaluating and improving digital tools in authentic educational settings.

Her work is always grounded in close collaboration with teachers, school leaders, and other practitioners. Her continued goal is to ensure that digital tools used in education are relevant, research-informed, and aligned with the classroom needs.

Teach For Bulgaria’s mission is to provide equal access to quality education for every child in Bulgaria, regardless of where they live, which school they attend, or their family’s financial capabilities.
