It involved a hands on session where people had to interactively use computers to do computational tasks in the R programming language. 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 a wiki all the relevant information was delivered over the web to everyones individual machine, and the dynamic content had history and change control. 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. Links: Notes:
