Hannes Seifert

Hannes Seifert is a Research Scientist and Doctoral Student at Friedrich Schiller University Jena's Department of Education within the Faculty of Mathematics and Computer Science, holding a concurrent position at the University of Erfurt's Department of Mathematics Education since 2025. His academic trajectory includes dual teacher certification in Mathematics/Computer Science (2021) and Spanish (2022), with ongoing doctoral research focused on digital competence development for mathematics educators.

Seifert's research centers on the integration of digital mathematics tools in classroom instruction, with particular emphasis on assessment frameworks for measuring pre-service teachers' digital competence. His work investigates the application of Computer Algebra Systems (CAS) and Dynamic Geometry Software (DGS) in mathematics education, developing performance-based evaluation methods and reflection instruments to enhance teacher training programs. Current projects include longitudinal studies on technology's impact on professional knowledge development and validation of assessment instruments through the ProfJL² research initiative.

• Developed performance-based assessment frameworks for digital competence measurement
• Conducted pilot studies on self-regulation in digital competence acquisition
• Investigated teacher-student interactions with dynamic geometry systems
• Analyzed future scenarios for digital technology integration in mathematics education

As an active academic contributor, Seifert serves on the Commission of Study Affairs at Jena's Faculty of Mathematics and Computer Science and provides academic advising for teacher training programs. His research outputs demonstrate consistent publication in leading mathematics education venues including the Journal for Didactics of Mathematics and proceedings of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education.

Seifert's professional activities extend to public relations within his faculty and specialized training for dual mainstream school teaching programs at the University of Erfurt. His collaborative work with researchers like Anke Lindmeier demonstrates strong interdisciplinary connections within the mathematics education research community.
