Mathematics Education Meets Digital Media: A Substantive Lecture at Bielefeld University
On Tuesday, June 23, 2026, the Mathematics Education Colloquium at Bielefeld University invites you to a lecture that focuses on current questions in mathematics teaching. Junior Prof. Dr. Daniel Walter from Dortmund will speak about comprehension-oriented learning with digital media and the impulses that arise from it for teaching and professionalization.
A Topic That Affects the Future of Teaching
Digital media shape the discussion on modern school development far beyond mere technology use. The lecture starts exactly there: How can learning processes be designed so that digital tools not only serve for practice but also strengthen mathematical understanding, argumentation, and communication? For teachers, students, and everyone interested in education and research, this creates a content-rich evening with clear practical relevance.
Scientific Exchange in a Calm Colloquium Atmosphere
The colloquium at Bielefeld University takes place on Tuesdays from 4:15 PM to 5:45 PM and is accessible online according to the event page.
