Hey All,

So we are about to kick off round of discussions about different courses. We’re going to start with the security course and we’ll play it by ear for now about a schedule for the rest. I’ll admit, it’s been a long time since I’ve had talks about the courses (beyond the informal course tutor to commandant type of chats), so I really don’t want to commit to a schedule yet until I have feel for how much interest there is and how much chatter we’re going to have.

So I’ve taken a google drive copy of the course Cale has graciously written. It is read only, just to avoid a lot changes that we lose track of.

Let the discussion begin! :)

Well first thing, there are both spelling and formatting issues to be addressed. Perhaps for ease and expediency commenting should be enabled so these can be pointed out, or specific passages addressed in the doc.

Reviewed most of it. It actually looks pretty good. Obviously haven’t gone over it with a fine-toothed comb yet. I will say it gives me sim ideas as well as ideas for other documentation that would supplement the course, but not directly.

I’m a little confused by the assessment section and the table layout. Is it supposed to indicate the “old” test and the “new” one proposed, or..something else? (There’s no language that i see regarding each column, so I can only infer.)

Thanks Sam for your suggestion. I’ve enabled commenting. Keep in mind that the end goal of these courses is to have them kept somewhere here on the STF server (likely the Library as that’s where all the others are kept), so formatting suggestions need to take that into account.

That table is one thing I was looking at. We could look at adding headings “Question 1” & “Question 2”. That might make it clearer to takers that there’s two questions per section that need answers to.

The table stuff I have to go over with the Librarian at one point just to see if there’s a better way to format that.
