In addition to facilitating source conversions, workshop activities will include learning the use of GitHub as a way to accept contributions and corrections from instructors and readers. Source-level graphics languages will be presented as a way to include graphics in an editable format. Sage Cell instances and live WeBWorK exercises will be presented as interactive mathematical elements of HTML output.
