A tool for formatting computer science lectures in HTML
Hugh McGuire · Journal of computing sciences in colleges · 2004
This paper advocates using HTML for representing Computer Science lectures. This technology should be at least as good as popular presentation-packages such as Microsoft PowerPoint, being able to handle multimedia. Beyond that, HTML can conveniently handle material in chunks larger than a screenful, it can be used in more computer-systems, and it is more extensible.This paper further presents a package which formats lectures in HTML. Features of this package particularly suited for lectures include. (i) enabling private lecture-notes to be interspersed with the lecture-materials that will be publicly displayed, and (ii) arranging for some texts to be filled in during presentations of lectures, which induces students to be somewhat involved.
