Call just with DB (SB absent) during which we reviewed and edited each other's material and clarified the next batch of homework.
- Tweaked and integrated my new ruleset graphics.
- Created a CSS cheatsheet.
- Added more detailed instructions for the first task.
- Integrated the second task from our CASTA presentation.
- Printed out model doc and cheat sheet.
We're ready to go.
Read through the existing materials, and made a plan with GN to integrate some of the stuff I've been writing for the XSLT class to make it a bit more graphically interesting, as well as integrating a second task (taken from the original CASTA presentation).
Progress on the XSLT workshop materials:
- Completed XPath predicate material.
- Wrote new presentation on CSS for XHTML.
- Updated topics table with progress.
Some of the CSS material can be re-purposed in Friday's English 500 class.
Skype call with other presenters, followed by completion of my first full presentation block, on XPath predicates, which also required some tweaking of CSS.
GN and I worked through the existing presentation materials in preparation for Friday's class, and tweaked a few bits, adding screenshots from the lab machines we'll be using, and simplifying some of the schema stuff so it's going to be easier for students to get started with a tei schema.
Finished a CSS cheat sheet, although I'm still not happy with it, and created a series of six illustrations for a presentation, showing the components of a ruleset.
Went to an excellent presentation by Lansdowne Lecturer Mark Olsen, which will probably lead to some project work using ARTFL's text-analysis tools for HC in French.
Did two of a sequence of SVG illustrations we can use to introduce the basics of CSS quickly in the DHSI XSLT course.
Workshop on XHTML and CSS for Hist 516 class.
