| Chapter | Timing Suggestions |
| Housekeeping | You must never skip your housekeeping but,
as always, roar through it
because people are anxious to "get started". |
| Resources | This has valuable stuff in it, but they won't
appreciate it until they begin to have a sense of what's important
and what docs and tools they'll need. Save it for a moment in which
you get a question that demands resources such as these. |
| 1 | Finish Chapter 1 by lunchtime.
Point out that in under two hours they have actually learned
XML! |
| 2 | |
| 3 | Get at least halfway through Chapter 3 (schemas)
by the end of Day 1. Start Day 2 with a review of well-formedness.
|
| 4 | This is the hardest chapter due to the unusual
syntax of XSLT and the unfamiliar nature of declarative languages.
|
| 5 | |
| 6 |
The lab and the discussion of XML server architecture in Chapter 6
will answer a number of questions that are likely to come up.
Be prepared to skip ahead to these topics if you're inclined to
give thorough answers at the time these questions are asked. |
