Research Interests
Fischer investigates criteria for selecting mathematics textbooks, domain-specific learning in early education, and methods to secure foundational knowledge for arithmetic transitions (e.g., mastering tens in numeracy). Her projects align with educational psychology and pedagogical resource design.

Recent Publications
Her 2025 publication in the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education proceedings highlights efforts to create standardized textbook evaluation tools. Earlier works (2024) in German conferences emphasize curriculum implementation and cognitive prerequisites in primary mathematics education.
