In a class of my own

Tuesday was the last Zoom meeting for my class (US History I) for this semester. There will still be a few weeks of grading let, but it’s done for new content.
This was the first fully-online class I’ve taught (not counting the spring 2020 one, that the pandemic turned into an online class halfway through). I definitely like teaching in person better, but this was probably a good experience, and it’s what was available this term. This school - the community college I went to myself, before transferring to New Paltz - is kind of known for being hard to get in with, so at least it’s a foot in the door.

It doesn’t look like I’ll have a class in the spring due to enrollment, but hopefully can get another one in the fall. In the meantime the break will be nice, since I’d been teaching it on one of my days off from my day job. The extra money would’ve probably been even nicer though…
