[BlindRUG] Any plans on making tutorials for BrailleR's functions?

[Godfrey, Jonathan]

Hello,

I have delivered workshops a few times and the material should be somewhere public. That probably means I ought to make it more public! I'll add that to my to-do list.

I haven't thought to create tutorials myself. I'd rather get on with the development when the time permits. I'd love someone else to do something, but I fear development might outpace the tutorials. For example, I made some minor changes to the VI() commands in the last few weeks so that the text they use is in common with the latest development to add content to a web-mounted graph. (More on that topic coming quite soon)

I'll help anyone wanting to create a starter kit though. It might come across better if it came from someone at a similar level of experience as against coming from me.

I welcome ideas and offers.

Cheers,
Jonathan

  Hello Dr. Godfrey,

  I was wondering if you had any plans on making either written or audio/video tutorials for some useful functions of BrailleR package.
 I know some functions like VI() were introduced in your book, LURN, but I felt it would be more than instrumental for those new to R with a screen reader if you could present some other updated useful functions of BrailleR.
 Even if people could refer to the package description files, it would be hard for new comers to fully benefit from each function (e.g., where to use, when to use).
I thought some scenario-based how-to function tutorial could greatly lower the stumbling blocks for prospective blind R users.
  If there is anything I can be of help, please let me know.

 Best wishes,

  JooYoung
