Anna Breitwieser completed her master’s degree in the subjects Philosophy and Psychology (PP) and German at the Paris Lodron University of Salzburg. After gaining experience teaching German and the elective subject “Philosophizing with Children” at a middle school, she completed her doctoral degree at the School of Education in Salzburg with a thesis on interdisciplinary philosophizing. She is now pursuing a second doctoral project in Philosophy within the FWF Cluster of Excellence Knowledge in Crisis.
She works on questions of philosophy education 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.
