معرفی
Mr. Patrick Bulthaup is a Research Associate at the IDM Bielefeld within the Faculty of Mathematics at the University of Bielefeld since April 2024. He previously served as a Research Associate at the Mathematics Didactics Group at the University of Osnabrück (2021–2024). He holds a Master of Education in Mathematics and Biology from the University of Bielefeld (2018–2020) and a Bachelor of Science in Mathematics (core subject) and Biology from the same institution (2014–2018).
- Education: B.Sc. and M.Ed. in Mathematics and Biology
- Current Role: Research Associate in Mathematics Education
- Key Research Interests: Digital tools, self-directed learning, geometry didactics
His research focuses on integrating digital mathematics tools into secondary school education, particularly through virtual-enactive approaches and self-directed learning frameworks. He explores applications of Dynamic Geometry Software (DGS) in differential calculus, flexible problem-solving with right-angled triangles, and contextualizing mathematics education within societal issues like the climate crisis. Publications from 2021–2024 highlight his work with MathCityMap in extracurricular settings and cooperative teaching strategies.
