| - | ====== SLUUG Steering Committee - Potential Tutorials, Topics and Speakers ====== | ||
| - | NOTE: Items posted on the wiki are always unofficial. | ||
| - | |||
| - | Schedules for upcoming tutorials and presentations are always tentative. | ||
| - | (Some more tentative than others!) | ||
| - | |||
| - | These lists are used during Steering Committee meetings, when planning presentations. | ||
| - | A version of these lists was posted to our DISCUSS mailing list on 25 May 2009, asking for volunteers. | ||
| - | |||
| - | ====== Potential Tutorials ====== | ||
| - | |||
| - | A short period (30 to 45 minutes) prior to each main presentation at the SLUUG general meetings is | ||
| - | dedicated to basic subjects. These tutorial sessions often are more hands on and less formal in nature. | ||
| - | They are mostly targeted at newbies, although everyone attending usually learns something. | ||
| - | Sometimes the focus can be on a single unique command, application feature, concept or technique. | ||
| - | Live demonstrations of new hardware or specific application software are welcomed. | ||
| - | |||
| - | In general, the tutorial subject should differ from the theme of the main presentation topic. | ||
| - | We can repeat these tutorials every few years, as not too much changes with the basics. | ||
