description, explanation and improvement of learning and teaching 
processes in learning situations embedded in institutionalized 
contexts (schools). Special aspects of interests are empirically

multicultural context of the workplace of the future teachers is taken 
into account. The professor will play a central role in the University's 
research priority "Education and learning in multilingual and
