Didaktik der Mathematik

Welcome to the AG Didaktik der Mathematik!

Dear visitor, 

Welcome to the website of the AG Didaktik der Mathematik (Mathematics Teacher Education) for Secondary Mathematics Education at the University of Bremen. 

The FB3 mathematics education working group brings together a wide range of experience in mathematics and mathematics education research. Collectively we have years of experience in schools, supporting learners and working with teachers. We apply our diverse skills in the contexts of mathematics teacher training and research, learning from and with each other. Our common research interest is gaining theoretical and practical insight into mathematical knowledge and its construction and better understanding the conditions that support learning. 

Our guiding principle in teacher training is a very tight integration of theory and practice. This means:

  • the earliest possible involvement of students in mathematics education research,
  • the application of research findings to practice,
  • gathering practical experience in elementary mathematics and mathematics teacher education, and
  • a didactically enriched elementary mathematics teacher education program.

As a part of the university, we work with other working groups by participating in a variety of university committees and other activities.

In the premises of the matelier, our math studio (MZH 2495), research days are offered regularly for school classes of different grades. During the opening hours, teaching materials, games and textbooks for mathematics lessons can be viewed, tried out and borrowed.

Under the direction of Dr. Reimund Albers, training sessions for the Mathematics Olympiad also take place on our premises.
