Rolf Monnerjahn (born October 28, 1942 in Munich ) is a German teacher , didactic author and e-learning pioneer.

Life

Rolf Monnerjahn grew up as the son of the bricklayer Alwin Monnerjahn in Upper Bavaria and in the Hunsrück . He is married and has two sons.

After graduating from high school in Boppard , he studied to become a teacher at elementary schools ( pedagogical universities in Munich and Koblenz ) and in 1963 at the age of 20 became headmaster at a poorly structured village school (two classes, grades 1-4 and 5-8) called. From 1968 to 1973 he studied mathematics and physics as a guest student at the Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz, and in 1973 passed the advancement examination for teaching at secondary schools in these subjects . From 1973 he taught at the Realschule in Emmelshausen and was appointed Realschule Konrektor there in 1975.

From 1980 to 1984 Monnerjahn participated as a member of the scientific support in the pilot project (MINA - mathematics and integrated natural sciences) in the development of the innovative curriculum for the elective mathematics and natural sciences in grades 9 and 10 of the Rhineland-Palatinate secondary schools. This was about the consideration, description and modeling of control and regulation processes in nature and technology ( cybernetic approach). From 1980 Monnerjahn was used in numerous events for teacher training for this new subject, for the development of teaching materials and handouts. Between 1978 and 1983 he took part in further training courses for the subject of computer science and until 1983 acquired the license to teach in both qualification levels.

Since 1976 he had gained experience in introducing students to programming at the Emmelshausen secondary school . From 1985 to 1990 he was a member of the project group for basic information technology education in Rhineland-Palatinate, headed by Alfons Rissberger , and from 1987 to 1989 he was a member of the central work group for information technology basic education at Südwestfunk Baden-Baden, where he was also a member of the central work group from 1988 to 1992 in the pilot project "Media network for teacher training in basic information technology education".

From 1980 to 1987 he was the editor of the Rhineland-Palatinate regional board of the Association of German Realschule Teachers (VDR, today VRB) and was in charge of the association's magazine “realschulblätter”. From 1983 Rolf Monnerjahn dealt with the production of programs to support math practice in his own lessons. In 1988 he was included in the CLiP pilot project (computer-aided learning in primary education); Here he wrote the program "Rechnen mit Felix", which covered the entire mathematics exercise material of school years 2 to 4 and was revolutionary in terms of individualization through case-differentiating learning aids, requirements adjustment and extensive graphical illustrations of arithmetic. The companies COMMODORE (Amiga-PC) and IBM-Germany supported the school experiment.

In 1990 Rolf Monnerjahn was appointed project group leader in the CULAS pilot project (computer-aided learning in general schools). At the same time he participated in the development of a learning program for fractions ( FWU with Fritz Nestle and B. Brockmann; pilot IBEC to develop exemplary learning software) and participated in a training course in cooperation of IPN in Kiel and King's College London to software author part. In this context, he and Fritz Nestle developed the mathematical learning game "Ziel 2000", which was later published by Cornelsen Verlag . Between 1994 and 2002 he was involved in the development of universal software for learning mathematics (arithmetic, algebra, geometry) in secondary school at Cornelsen-Verlag in Berlin (Mathlantis project).

From 2006 Monnerjahn dealt with the use of computer algebra systems (CAS) in mathematics lessons, published (2007) a textbook on this and a series of lesson proposals at Lehrer-Online. In 2013, together with Hans-Martin Bossert, on the occasion of the 150th birthday of the writer Helene Pagés, he arranged for the new edition of her stories "The Ringing Chain" and their presentation at a memorial service in his home town of Emmelshausen.
