*  how can teachers can get involved?
* Pandoc - https://github.com/jgm/pandoc/releases/tag/1.16.0.2 the file pandoc-1.16.0.2-osx.pkg (for Mac OsX). (Pandoc is a Markup (file) converter. It does not have a graphical interface, instead runs on you computer's terminal.
Due of this, once you install Pandoc you wont see its icon in the Application menu. To confirm it is installed you can type "which pandoc"  in your computer terminal and press enter; if installed it will reply something like "/bin/pandoc")

    *
    * Gedit https://wiki.gnome.org/Apps/Gedit
    * (Note: MS Office, LibreOffice, OpenOffice, etc are NOT Plain-text editors, but text processors that add style to the text. Plain text editors are often used by programmers, who need text to be plain text, without formatting).


* Goal: have more systems to publish in wdka?
If you don't have a laptop, around 10 Mac desktop computers are available in the room where the workshop will that place.

See you next week

It might be interesting to use the opportunity to ask:
* how teachers see electronic publishing in arts education context
* can it function a learning tool/incentive, while also serving to communicate the work developed by students and tutors?
 
* how do they see the epub format?
* does it have any advantage over web?
* should it exist only as the off line version of a website, or there other reasons for its existence?
* is it an interesting format for publishing?
* where are the difficulties in adopting (electronic) publishing?
