Dr. Anja Böhnke serves as a Researcher at the Department of Education and Psychology, Free University of Berlin since 2010, with current project leadership in ViFoNet (2023–present) and scientific coordination of the FOCUS Video Portal (2019–present). Her work bridges educational psychology and practical teacher development within Germany's school system.
Her academic credentials include:
- Doctorate in Education and Psychology, Free University of Berlin (2018)
- Diploma (Master's equivalent) in Psychology, Free University of Berlin (2010)
Böhnke's research centers on transforming teacher professionalization through video-based methodologies, examining motivational dynamics in educational settings and institutional approaches to error management. She investigates how structured video analysis cultivates teacher responsiveness to classroom disruptions while advancing school quality frameworks. Her error-culture studies reveal critical links between teacher self-efficacy and constructive handling of instructional mistakes.
Analysis of her publication trajectory shows consistent innovation in video-tool development for teacher education, with recent work emphasizing staged classroom scenarios and disruption-noticing metrics. These studies integrate cognitive psychology principles with practical training needs, particularly for novice educators navigating complex classroom dynamics.
Her project portfolio includes BMBF-funded initiatives like SteBis (evidence-based governance) and CueVis (video-based self-learning modules), demonstrating sustained engagement with Germany's educational infrastructure. Collaborative work spans university-school partnerships focused on measurable improvements in instructional quality.
As core team member of the FOCUS Video Portal, Böhnke develops digital resources connecting pre-service and in-service teacher training phases. Her media-psychology informed designs prioritize authentic classroom reflection while addressing systemic challenges in teacher professionalization.
