I don’t know if it’s just my field or if I’m searching wrong, but I get almost nothing when I look for papers about German grammar and language instruction. Is this mostly for more mainstream/hard science papers?
I have tried it, but also not had any luck. I am looking for research, but it’s still a really narrow field, tbh. Even in Germany, I think there are only a handful of DaF/aZ postgrad programs.
So yeah it’s probably your field! Sorry about that. Fwiw I don’t think the problem is that it isn’t ‘hard science’, I find it easy to find philosophical works (German, English and French language ones). It’s probably just too niche.

Idk if itll help but have you tried annas archive? It mirrors multiple science piracy sites.
Edit:do you mean pedagogical materials or research? Cause I don’t think you’ll be lucky if it’s the former.
