Re: tugindia Digest, Vol 128, Issue 1

Thank you very much!

The training is as per the LaTeX Tutorials prepared by TUG India - this
book is freely available on the net. We are using it as our resource book.
In addition we are also giving the Mathmode of Voss.

I wrote an article on the method of my Teaching LaTeX which was published
in The PracTeX journal - along with some other articles + my students
experience.

The DVD we distribute contains - ProTeXt, documents freely available on net
regarding TeX and LaTeX - and some free software like TpX (for drawing
figures), TeX Cad, wBibDB (for creating Bibliography databases), PSPP, R,
gnuplot, geogebra, GIMP etc.

Generally we conduct training 3 - 4 times so that all the applicants are
benefited. Because most of them are from BHU. For outsiders we are facimg
accommodation problem. But we may shortly conduct training of 3 days
duration for outstation applicants also (we received some).

In addition on invitation I conduct LaTeX training in other parts of the
country also - I already conducted training at - Delhi Technical
University, Banasthali Vidyapeeth, DAVIET (Jalandhar), Baba Farid
Institutions (Bhatinda), SR engineering College (Warangal), DIAT (Pune),
Bhaskaracharya Pratisthan (Pune).

If you are interested in getting the DVD please write your address to me

with best wishes

DVG
