Katharina Scheiter studied psychology at the University of Göttingen from 1993 till 1999. After having worked as a research associate at Saarland University, she completed her Ph.D in 2003 at the University of Tübingen. She received her habilitation in psychology for her work on the "Theoretical and empirical foundations of theories of multimedia learning: A critical reconsideration" in 2009 and was honored with the Erik de Corte Award for Young and Promising Scholars in the Science of Learning and Instruction of the European Association for Learning and Instruction (EARLI). Katharina Scheiter initially held a temporary research professorship. In 2011 she was appointed full professor at the University of Tübingen.

Research

Together with her research group at the Leibniz-Institut für Wissensmedien, Katharina Scheiter investigates cognitive processes underlying learning from multiple representations as well as means of supporting these processes. Results from this research are used to design digital textbooks and tablet-based applications for education. Katharina Scheiter has conducted multiple projects on learning with multimedia funded by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG, German Research Foundation). She is applicant and member of the DFG Research Group Analysis and Facilitation of Effective Learning and Teaching Processes ("Analyse und Förderung effektiver Lehr-Lernprozesse", FOR738) and of the LEAD Graduate School and Research Network (Learning, Educational Achievement, and Life Course Development; GSC 1028), financed by the German Excellence Initiative. Moreover, she serves on the board of the Tübingen School of Education , where she is also responsible for the Tübingen Digital Teaching Lab (TüDiLab) that is located at the IWM.
