This is Robert's teaching page. I have retired from active
service on September 30, 2022. My status as a Professorial Fellow implies that
my teaching from now on will be welcome but not mandatory. I am planning
to offer courses from time to time, but not in the current winter semester. For
the time being, I am keeping this page for reference.
It should contain course descriptions for all lecture
courses, some links to older material, and announcements
that serve as a means of communicating short-run changes.

Since
2012, course grades do not appear on these pages, for reasons of data
protection. Participants are always informed via e-mail.
Grades
from the era before 2012 can be accessed here.
Regarding the continuing coronavirus problem, of course I am obliged to
follow the rules and instructions that are being announced for the whole
university. Virtual meetings with students are possible, I suggest using skype.
Whereas distance teaching can be an interesting challenge, distance
examinations by construction do not really satisfy. I hope that tests and exams
in presence at the university will remain with us.
General information for all courses
If you
have any paper material for me (such as homework assignments or forms), please
leave it with our administration. Never leave any material with other faculty.
In case you cannot attend a test (not an exam; there are special
regulations for no-show at exams) for important reasons or you are unable to be
present at any other dated event within a course, please give me notice via
e-mail immediately. I expect such notifications to arrive within three days
after the event that you missed.
