معرفی
Dr. Lars Jenßen is a Researcher at Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin, affiliated with the Institut für Erziehungswissenschaften within the Kultur-, Sozial- und Bildungswissenschaftliche Fakultät. His primary focus is on emotions in mathematics education, professional competence development, and early childhood mathematics pedagogy. He serves as Project Manager for icMAPS (international comparison of mathematics anxiety in pre-service teachers) and SHAME (exploring shame in mathematics education), and contributes to the Pro-KomMa and MaTe projects. His office is located at Friedrichstraße 194-199, Room 211/212, with contact via email.
Research interests emphasize the interplay between emotions (e.g., math anxiety, shame) and professional development in mathematics education. He investigates how early childhood educators' competencies influence children’s mathematical growth and the role of socio-emotional factors in teacher training. Projects like Pro-KomMa validate models assessing early childhood teachers’ professional competencies, while icMAPS explores cross-cultural differences in pre-service teacher anxiety.
No scientific awards are explicitly mentioned in the text. However, his involvement in high-impact projects and prolific publication record (over 50 articles since 2015) indicate significant scholarly contribution. He advises no named students, but actively collaborates on grants related to emotional dynamics and teacher training. Lab/teams affiliation includes the Primary Mathematics Education research group under Prof. Katja Eilerts.
