About Anna Otterborn
I am a Ph.D. student in natural sciences and technology didactics. I am also a licensed preschool teacher with extensive experience. My research is about how preschool teachers manage and design an increasingly digitalized STEM teaching with a particular emphasis on science and programming. In all four sub-studies of the dissertation, the teachers' perspective is highlighted.
I am part of the research school FontD5. I also belong to the research group ReCEL (Research on Children, Education, and Learning).
