// the engineer and the educationalist

I have been working in Frankfurt am Main for ten years as a project director and for fourteen years as an assistant lecturer at the University of Applied Sciences. Since my early days I have been fascinated with both engineering and education. These rather different interests have accompanied me through my entire career. Consistently, I studied both subjects and dedicated my dissertation to a topic combining both fields (digital technical media in education). This is the subject matter I deal with professionally and that influences my research interests.

// the topics

Currently, I am dealing with both didactical questions, the use of (technical) media in the classroom as well as with concept development and evaluation of Information- and IT-Management and IT-Organization. I personally find creative methods in empirical social sciences and nondirective supervision of group processes (moderation) as well as their further development are key. Altogether, the technical disciplines such as engineering and computer sciences as well as education sciences provide me with a broad and exciting range of professional and research areas.

// the person

My exciting work sometimes leaves me only little leisure time. This time, however, I like to spend in the kitchen cooking (and eating ;-)) and in the Frankfurt city forest: For me running is the best way to mentally balance the many hours I sit at my writing desk. And if time allows I visit the world's interesting places. I am especially fascinated by Aotearoa.
