  • I find it very easy to develop then deliver lectures with Mediawiki
  • Mediawiki has well tested, powerful features, (It runs Wikipedia),

Including:

  • Tex formula, e.g. fundamental theorem of calculus:
Let ƒ be a continuous real-valued function defined on a closed interval [a, b]. Let F be the function defined, for all x in [a, b], by
F(x) = \int_a^x f(t)\, dt\,.
Then, F is continuous on [a, b], differentiable on the open interval (ab), and
F'(x) = f(x)\,
for all x in (a, b).
