What is my role within CATALPA?

As a computer scientist, I am investigating concepts for adaptive reading comprehension support in digital course texts as part of the APLE II research project.

Why CATALPA?

CATALPA offers me the opportunity to follow up my professional activities with a scientific career. My goal is to support the research in the APLE II project with my PhD.
