معرفی
Dr. Thomas Krohn is a Researcher in the Department of Didactics at the Mathematical Institute of the University of Leipzig since October 2012. His work bridges mathematics education, probability theory, and the history of early modern mathematics and astronomy, with a focus on integrating historical methods into contemporary teaching through projects like LUPI (Lowest Unique Positive Integer Game) and GeoGebra applications.
- Education: Teacher training (2003–2008) at the University of Rostock and Martin Luther University Halle-Wittenberg; Doctorate (2014) at Halle-Wittenberg on 17th-century Wittenberg mathematical teaching.
- Research: Explores intersections of chance/strategy in stochastics education, historical astronomical data, and didactic reconstruction of logarithmic understanding and proportionality concepts.
Article Trends show recurring engagement with:
- Probability education through interactive games like LUPI
- Historical instruments (Organum mathematicum, Jacob's staff) for geometric and astronomical teaching
- 17th-century Wittenberg scholars' contributions to heliocentric theory and observatory development
- GeoGebra integration for digital learning paths in elementary and secondary education
- Didactic reconstruction of historical algorithms and misconceptions
- Interdisciplinary projects merging mathematics with cultural-historical contexts
Collaborates frequently with S. Schumacher (Bielefeld) and S. Schöneburg-Lehnert (Leipzig) on didactic innovations. Office hours available in-person or digitally by arrangement for summer semester 2025.
