Teaching online during the summer semester 2020
Dear students,our summer semester has been a forced, but nevertheless quite successful test run for completely digital teaching. It has shown us all what can be achieved in a short time, if necessary. The issue of digital exams arose with something of a delay and all sides involved are still learning a lot here.
I would like to convey my utmost gratitude to our students for their enthusiasm, resilience, their creative and constructive approach and their intensive participation. Another big thank you goes to all colleagues for their immense commitment and creativity.
As of now (July 2020), we are planning for a predominantly digital winter semester 20/21 with carefully reintroduced face-to-face teaching elements wherever feasible according to the infection situation at the time. More detailed planning will only be possible as the semester comes closer and the legal and medical situation will be more safely predictable.
Until then, we wish you success in the ongoing examinations and a healthy and recreative summer.
Andreas Butz (dean of studies, speaking for the institute)
