A notable exception is > the "messages" page at > http://graddsp.tau.ac.il/msglist.asp?faculty=3.Strangely, it even looks > different under IE and Firefox/Opera). > > Once you start your studies, however, the main problem becomes that a lot > of classes are given with PowerPoint presentations, which are then > available at the course website. I often ask the prof. about availability > of the lectures in a more open format (pdf for example)- some professors > realize the error of their ways ( ;-) ) and worry about finding a solution > for me while others simply tell me to go to the computer lab and look at > the presentations from there. > > Ideally, it would be officialy policy to have all course materials > available in an open format, but I would settle for having that as a > de-facto policy. > > Any ideas what can be done about this? > > > Alexander (aka Sasha) Maryanovsky. > > ================================================================= > To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with > the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command > echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > ================================================================= To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
