All my slides are presented using [reveal.js](http://revealjs.com), and do not exist as Powerpoint or PDF, but instead, as websites. To navigate my slides, use the arrow keys, the onscreen controls, or swipe on mobile. To scan through slides, hit 'Escape'. To print or make a PDF, add ?print-pdf to the URL after .html in Google Chrome and then 'Print' as usual. (Please note that PDF/printing is not 'officially supported' by the instructor, and the results may be very strange in places) --- ### Handout Mode - You can also turn slides into a handout by adding "_handout" before .html - This may cause formatting errors, as this is automatically generated.
