Grading

Grading will be based on:

• Preparation phase.
• Presentation.
• Creation of the exercise sheet.
• Active participation during the discussion.
• Seriously attempting to solve at least 80% of the exercises.

Presentation + Exercise Sheets

All participants are expected to give a decent lecture. During and after every lecture there will be (a) discussion(s).

Every team is expected to prepare an exercise sheet with about 4-6 exercises (of varying difficulty). Every participant should make a "serious attempt at solution" for at least 80% of the exercises and hand in solution attempts to me (room 03.11.055 or email to schlund@model.in.tum.de).

Please send me your solution attempts uptil 17.02.2012.

Please prepare enjoyable slides! Use a clean layout and font and include appropriate figures. Feel free to use the blackboard or projector e.g. for highlighting important facts or developing examples. Before you start working on your presentation, please read the "Guidelines for Creating Presentations" from the LaTeX-beamer userguide. Please also prepare enjoyable exercise sheets---you can use the template provided.

• LaTeX-Introduction in 157 minutes (in english)
• LaTeX-Introduction Fernuni Hagen (in german):
  • LaTeX - eine Einführung und ein bisschen mehr ...
  • LaTeX - Fortgeschrittene Anwendungen
  • Verschlungene Anwendungen (Das X-Team: Xtem XEmacs LaTeX 2e AucTeX)
• LaTeX-packages to prepare slides: LaTeX Beamer

Supervision

We will provide some basic literature --- additionally we expect every participant to search for further literature! Every presentation will be supervised by one member of the chair who will always be happy to answer questions and provide guidance on how to give a good presentation.
