Description
Summary:The vital combination was using teaching methods for German as a foreign language in my math courses. This led to an entirely new structure of my lectures, which again made it possible to introduce new tools to help my students learn mathematics. These tools include the artworks I create for my lectures, which I create for my lectures – or more precisely, for my students. The purpose of these artworks is to make mathematics more human and to exhibit the inherent beauty of mathematics. They are mainly artworks which do not reveal their mathematical nature straightforwardly, since that is the mission of the students to find it. To achieve this, they will have to interact with both the artwork and their fellow students. This not only renders a deeper learning process possible, thanks to the active participation of the students, but also creates a stronger bond between the students and the mathematical topic. This is why I call my work interactive art. To tap the full mathematics of each work you have to touch it, play with it and manipulate it.
