Degree factors

"Säg mig hur de klarade första året och jag skall säga dig hur många som kommer att ta examen" (pdf). LTH:s 2:a Pedagogiska Inspirationskonferens 2004.

Forms for time reporting (Mathematical statistics)

Teachers/examinators should fill in these and hand to me at the end of a course:

• Timrapportering för undervisning och utveckling av kurs (ps)
• Timrapportering för tentamen (ps)

LaTeX-files

See also the mccovers et al help page.

I have constructed a LaTeX package, named mcfonts, which changes the fonts to Garamond and Frutiger, replaces the Greek font in math-mode with another one, and provides commands for easy access to boldface, sans serifs, etc., in math-mode. The garagrek-package is a beta-version for use with the old TeX-version. It has some known problems and no Frutiger.

Further, there is a file with commands that I have found useful, designed to be used together with the mcfonts-package.

Please report problems and suggested improvements to me so that I can incorporate them in future versions. Centrally installed packages:

• mcfonts.sty v1.0. Obsolete. Requires the new TeX-version. Changes the fonts to Garamond and Frutiger.
• mcfonts.sty v1.1. Obsolete. Provides the old lost variant forms of epsilon, etc; See page 9 in the manual.
• mcfonts.sty v1.2. Resets the math-accents to the old version (\acute, \grave, \ddot, \tilde, \bar, \breve, \check, hat, \dot)

Get-your-own-copy packages and input-files:

• defsII.tex. Some useful commands. Requires mcfonts and the new TeX-version.
• garagrek.sty. Changes the fonts to Garamond. Works with the old TeX-version and should be placed where your LaTeX will find it. If you use the new TeX-version you should use mcfonts instead.
• LGRenc.def, LGRcmr.fd, LGRcmro.fd, LGRcmss.fd, LGRcmtt.fd. For use with garagrek. Redefines some Greeks fonts and must lie in the same catalog as the main document if you want to use sans serifs Greek letters, otherwise you can skip them.

Manuals:

• Manual for all five centrally installed classes/packages is located at a page of their own.
• A list in Swedish (ps), with examples, of the useful commands in defsII.tex.
• Swedish manual for garagrek (ps).

Exams

The following is a list of my theme examinations constructed for the entertainment of myself and my students. Unfortunately, all are in Swedish. (The html versions are but poor substitutes for the use of people who cannot read postscript; they lack pictures and the math-layout is primitive.)
