During this academic year, as all my classes were taught online, I made sure the students had many possibilities available to them to interact amongst themselves and with me in each course. Toward that aim I organized discussion forums for each weekly class in each course I taught, both in the Spring and Fall semesters, for the students to exchange questions and ideas.
I also encouraged the students to hold, if needed, consultations with me online via Zoom, in lieu of in person office hours.
