This a short course (3 to 5 sessions) giving a short example-based
introduction to [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LaTeX][LaTeX]]. The goal is to explain the basics of LaTeX and
then to have the students explore the language and the ecosystem on
their own. The subjects covered in the slides include sectioning,
paragraph formatting, tables, figures, and mathematical notation. At
the end of the presentation, Beamer and TikZ are mentioned as possible
further study directions.
After going through the slides, the teacher shows three documents
prepared with LaTeX (typically, an assignment text, some slides, etc.)
and explains how to typeset them. On completing the guided part of the
course, the students pick technical subjects within their domain and
write up a one-page LaTeX document briefly presenting the subject.
This course is taught in French to the students of [[https://www.univ-evry.fr/formation/loffre-de-formation/domaines-de-formation/domaine/sciences-technologies-sante/programme/licence-mention-informatique-1.html][L3 informatique]]
