Anna Breitwieser completed her master’s degree (M.Ed.) in Philosophy and Psychology (PP) and German at the University of Salzburg, with a master’s thesis on the significant role of philosophy in educational laboratories. After gaining experience teaching German and the elective subject “Philosophizing with Children” at a middle school, she is now pursuing her doctoral studies. She works on questions of the didactics of philosophy from a lifeworld-, problem- and science-oriented perspective. Under the supervision of Bettina Bussmann and David Lanius, her dissertation focuses on epistemic competences—specifically, what they are and how they can be fostered and developed across various subjects and diverse places of learning. Bridging theory and practice, she develops teaching materials that play a central role in making philosophical inquiry accessible.
