Several of my experiences (including building PDF slides of plots and other forms not mentioned here) are captured in the talk I gave during the Wolfram Technology Conference this past October. I am fortunate enough to have a classroom full of motivated individuals who volunteered for the challenges of a West Point education and show up daily ready to perform.

At other times it meant putting quiz-style questions on a website so that students could submit answers via forms that were easier to grade while allowing everyone to work at a safe distance on individual devices.ĭespite the obstacles, every opportunity to develop leaders is still a privilege, and part of my journey toward self-improvement as well.

Sometimes this meant carrying a large whiteboard with a tripod out to the stadium. While such adjustments were voluntary, to enhance the discussion I chose to teach several lessons outside under large white tents and even in stadium bleachers to safely enable larger conversations with my cadets. In addition to masks in the classroom, reduced class sizes to allow for social distancing, rigorous testing and tracing efforts, and precautionary remote video classes, we have also needed to adjust aspects of our teaching styles. The past year of learning ushered in a variety of new experiences for instructors and students alike, and the United States Military Academy at West Point was no exception.
