As a research assistant at the Chair of Methods in Political Science, I have continuously taught in the Institute’s degree programs, focusing on the practical teaching of empirical social research in the BA program in Social Sciences.
My interest in education is reflected in my experience training and supervising students (e.g., on final-year projects). My teaching roles have equipped me to impart knowledge successfully, prepare and present complex content effectively, guide discussions, and provide constructive feedback to facilitate learning.
In teaching, I have always developed courses further and designed, developed, and implemented several web-based training courses as larger teaching projects. In these projects, I set the planning and implementation as project manager and supervised and managed student assistants.
In addition, I have created several learning videos on statistics and its application in R for the Justus-Liebig-University and the FernUniversität Hagen over the last few years.
In application-oriented courses, I have always emphasized integrating project/collaboration tools (such as Git) and, for example, enabling automated checks of code submissions via Git (see CI project below).
