What made this workshop interesting was that I delivered it using a MediaWiki installation I had on a local area network server. I chose this approach as I noticed other presenters using powerpoint and then having trouble with interactive session parts involving computer work.

By using the printable version link I could use browser rendering to infinitely scale text information for projector delivery, and make an electronic pdf for attendees.   (more...)
