The TEFL department of the IEAS has welcomed a new professor this term, Stefanie Frisch. She moved to Frankfurt from the University of Wuppertal on 1 October 2024. Her research mainly focuses on early English language learning in the school context. She will make the Goethe University very visible in this area, firstly because she is organising an international conference on early foreign language learning every three years (ATFLY Conference), and secondly because she is in the editorial board of the journal 'Grundschule Englisch'. This year, she also founded a research network with her colleague Julia Reckermann (University of Münster) (FFF Network).

On 25 November 2024 Stefanie Frisch (Goethe University) and her colleagues from Freiburg, Kassel and Wuppertal presented a paper on the potential of picturebooks for fostering basic literary competences among early English language learners. The University of Rostock had invited to a symposium in which picture books were analysed from a literary and teaching perspective.
