Affective states:
Terror when asked to explain a specific comment on the report I could not recall.
Stimulation when a conference went strictly 'by the book' (i.e. no challenging questions were asked)
Indignation when accused of poor hybrid Zoom/live teaching practice
Trepidation when asked to explain the rationale for the "Enrichment" course
