#EmacsReveal

2025-12-30

I create my teaching materials as #OER with #EmacsReveal [1]. For my course on IT Systems [2] in summer term 2025, I switched to #Kokoro [3] as #TextToSpeech model, and students generally liked the quality (see README of emacs-reveal for evaluation results). Teaching resources are video-like, interactive HTML presentations with audio, generated from #OrgMode text files using GitLab CI/CD pipelines.

This holiday season, I found the time to release #EmacsReveal 9.54.0, which includes the settings I used for IT Systems. I also updated the #TTS Howto [4] to use Kokoro.

Feel free to reuse my course materials and emacs-reveal! All the best for 2026!

Vielen Dank für den Beitrag @lerothas, der bei mir für gute Laune sorgt! Ich stimme voll zu: "#OER ohne #FOSS ist kein OER." Das passt zum viel zitierten ALMS-Framework, für das ich dort meine erweiterte Interpretation vorgestellt habe: doi.org/10.21240/mpaed/34/2019
Als Ort nutze ich GitLab.com (wofür ich mich bewusst statt GitHub entschieden habe), inzwischen würde ich eher @Codeberg ausprobieren, in jedem Fall Versionsverwaltung mit #Git.
@PatrickLeTerrier Ich verwende #EmacsReveal mit Quelldateien in #OrgMode, seit Sommer 2024 mit #TTS-generierten Audioerklärungen für HTML-Präsentationen mit #RevealJS: oer.gitlab.io/oer-courses/it-s

For several years now, I have been actively maintaining emacs-reveal [1] to produce interactive HTML presentations with audio as open educational resources. These presentations are generated automatically from Org mode text files using GitLab CI pipelines.

Summer term 2024 was the first time I incorporated text-to-speech functionality into my emacs-reveal workflow, resulting in video-like, yet interactive presentations: see my course on IT Systems [2]. Since the end of the lecturing period I have been updating software and documentation a bit. Feel free to reuse my course material and emacs-reveal; maybe comment on issue #20 [3]?
