Was ist meine Rolle in CATALPA ?

Als kognitive und pädagogische Psychologin leite ich die Nachwuchsgruppe Multimedia und forsche über verschiedene Themen in Multimedia-Lernen und Multitasking.

Warum CATALPA ?

Das Forschungszentrum CATALPA bietet ein interdisziplinäres Forschungsfeld, wo ich potentielle Forschungspartner finden kann. Es finanziert meine Nachwuchsgruppe und erweitert meine akademische Karriere.

    • Nachwuchsgruppenleiterin Nachwuchsgruppe Multimedia im Forschungszentrum CATALPA (vormals D²L²) FernUniversität (seit April 2021)
    • Wissenschaftliche Mitarbeiterin in Psychologie, FernUniversität in Hagen (2016-03.2021)
    • Wissenschaftliche Mitarbeiterin in Psychologie, University Koblenz-Landau (07.2015-12.2015)
  • Ich interessiere mich für verschiedene Themen in Multimedia-Lernen:

    • Text-Bild-Integration,
    • Lernen mit Grafiken,
    • Videos und interaktive Simulationen, sowie
    • das Thema Sequenzlernen unter Multitasking.
