I've been using Scribble for course notes, slides, and various PDF 
documents for distribution to students for about ten years. I got the idea 
from several Racket principals who have been doing it for even longer, but 
unlike them, I have only basic facility with the language. The 
scribble-math package is based on a short post I made to this list to 
describe how to use MathJax to render math within a Web page. Recently I 
incorporated "asciicasts", lightweight terminal recordings to illustrate 
livecoding. You can see various examples 
here: https://cs.uwaterloo.ca/~plragde/flaneries/ . I'm happy to consult 
and share techniques as needed. --PR
