Frank Reinhold is Professor of Mathematics Education at the University of Education Freiburg. His research lies at the intersection of mathematics education, educational psychology, and digital learning, with particular interest in instructional design, learning processes, and the professional development of teachers.
Our study shows that some boxplot elements can be processed extrafoveally, revealing when students interpret statistical graphics simultaneously rather than sequentially.
Our new study shows how differently mathematics teachers integrate the same digital tool-revealing four distinct teaching approaches that shape technology-enhanced learning.
My research is structured around three mutually reinforcing themes.
I investigate how digital learning environments transform mathematics education—from interactive tasks to adaptive learning pathways—bridging mathematics education with educational psychology.
I analyze cognitive strategies, motivation, and emotions in mathematical learning to understand the processes that support successful learning trajectories.
Using advanced quantitative methods, process data, and learning analytics, I model learning processes and intervention effects, including GLMMs, response time analysis, and eye-tracking.
Key works that highlight the focus and direction of my research.
