Teaching

Iris Eisenberger conducts research at the intersection of public law, innovation and society and  implements these topics in research-led teaching.

I use innovative teaching methods to ensure excellent education also during times of COVID-19. To this end, I provide, among other things, commented Power Point slides, additional exercise modules, and other materials on the Moodle learning platform. I use live polling and other interactive methods during classes. In this way, I am able to motivate the students to actively participate in the courses.
