Curriculum vitae

Corinne Büching is Senior Consultant for Educational Technologies and Science at the Institute for Innovation and Technology (iit). Her work focuses on how digital technologies and artificial intelligence are transforming education – and how this is giving rise to new opportunities for learning, knowledge and innovation. Her work centres on AI in education, digital education and innovation, as well as digital educational ecosystems, platforms and infrastructures. In doing so, she combines academic perspectives with an understanding of societal developments and practical implementation. She advises, designs, conducts research and brings people and ideas together – including at conferences and workshops. Corinne Büching completed her PhD at the University of Bremen on ‘Digitised Educational Artefacts’. Prior to this, she studied social sciences at the Universities of Göttingen and Leiden in the Netherlands. As a research assistant in the Digital Media in Education research group at the University of Bremen and at the Centre for Technology and Society at the Technical University of Berlin, she gained many years’ experience in research, project management and the clear communication of scientific findings. She thus combines academic depth with a passion for creativity and an eye for the opportunities offered by digital education.
