Abstract

In the digital age, teachers in engineering disciplines must pay more attention to the preparation of teaching materials than before. However, their work efficiency is limited by words processing because of the complexity of teaching materials that consist of text, equations, figures, etc. A method based on the plain text is presented in this paper. The common syntax of Markdown is introduced, two practical MD editors and a useful tool, Pandoc, are recommended.
