About me

I am a professor of history education at the University of Cologne, Germany. I have studied history, philosophy, and special education, and worked as a teacher for several years before joining the university as a researcher. My research focuses on inclusive teaching, professional research on teachers, critical data literacy in the context of the humanities, and the history of disability. I am a member of several national and international professional associations and serve as a consultant to research and educational institutions.”
