Makerspace: scientific writing, LaTeX and TYPST

What

Immerse yourself in the world of academic writing! There will be three short introductions:

What are the requirements? This will be shown using the example of the lab report, the internship report. Best practice and no-gos. Each and every one of us must!
How does it work with LaTeX? Some have heard of it and here we show what it can look like?
Then there's TYPST. Let us show you what is possible with it.

In 15 minutes each there is a short, crisp introduction. This is followed by 5 minutes for questions and a general discussion at the end. Bring your laptop if you want to try it out yourself!

If you are interested, a continuation on one of the three topics will be arranged!
