Sebastian Geisler

Prof. Dr. Sebastian Geisler serves as Assistant Professor in the Institute of Mathematics at the University of Potsdam, leading the Didactics of Mathematics II working group. His research employs empirical methodologies to investigate mathematical learning processes across school and university settings, with particular emphasis on affective factors influencing educational outcomes.

His primary research domains include:

• Mathematics Education
• Empirical Educational Research
• Affective Factors in Learning
• University Mathematics Didactics
• School Mathematics Learning Processes

The working group actively engages in current projects such as AI integration in mathematics teaching, "Thinking Classroom" methodology workshops, and Open Educational Resources development. They organize specialized events including the 2024 Iceland Study Trip and 2022 Summer School, while providing supervision for Bachelor's and Master's theses in mathematics education.

Prof. Geisler maintains close collaboration with complementary working groups including Didactics of Mathematics (Prof. Ulrich Kortenkamp) and Didactics of Mathematics in Inclusive Contexts (Prof. Birte Friedrich). His team operates from the Golm Campus (Building 24, Room 2.24.0.15) with consultation hours by appointment.
