Cornelia Große

Cornelia Große serves as a Privatdozent (Associate Professor) at the Department of Educational Research within the Linz School of Education at Johannes Kepler University Linz. Her academic profile demonstrates a strong commitment to advancing educational research with particular emphasis on mathematics education, digital learning environments, and assessment methodologies.

Her research interests span multiple interconnected domains of educational science. Große specializes in understanding how students approach mathematical problem-solving, particularly examining how real-world contexts influence solution strategies and where common misconceptions arise. She has conducted extensive research on digitalization in educational settings, investigating both teacher adoption of technology and student experiences with digital learning tools. Her recent work has focused significantly on pandemic-related learning losses and the subsequent recovery in educational settings, as evidenced by her meta-analysis on COVID-19's impact on academic achievement.

Analysis of her recent publications (2024-2025) reveals a clear trajectory focusing on practical educational applications. Große has led the JKU Education Barometer series examining classroom practices in Austrian schools, produced research on mathematics education that connects theoretical frameworks with practical classroom applications, and explored the complex relationship between technology integration and teaching effectiveness. Her work consistently bridges educational theory with practical classroom implications.

Große actively contributes to the academic community through her service as a reviewer for prominent journals including 'Learning and Instruction,' 'Instructional Science,' 'Educational Psychology Review,' 'Applied Cognitive Psychology,' and 'Journal of Educational Psychology.' She has also served as a reviewer for the book series 'Educational Psychology and Developmental Psychology' published by Waxmann.

Her research leadership is demonstrated through projects such as 'View into the classroom' (2023-2024), which examined educational practices in Austrian schools, and the 'Validation study on the DiWi Pass' (2020-2021). According to her Scopus profile, she has supervised 12 student works, indicating an active mentoring role in developing the next generation of educational researchers.

Große collaborates extensively with colleagues, particularly with Helm, C., with whom she has co-authored numerous publications and research projects. Her work appears across multiple research platforms including ORCID, ResearchGate, and Google Scholar, demonstrating her active engagement with the international educational research community.
