First day of the new semester and teaching in an actual room with students in it, I like online but I have missed the energy of a live group. Honestly it feels great.

David Williams:
- too much focus on skills & short-term, learning outcomes
- need to develop graduates with life-long learning skills & ability to adapt to new tech & challenges
- need for in-depth skills & master's graduates
