# Aim

**Prepare slides for full lecture.**

As you have noticed the slides for our lecture are old and dull. By the help of our students we can update the course materials.

---

:::danger  
Remember, aim is not *"just pick a textbook"*, our aim is to modernize and update our course materials. So,
* Search and find a textbook and go over its contents. Then decide if it has **better** content than our own lecture materials. If not, then try another text book. 
* **PLEASE DO NOT USE OLD TEXTBOOKS**
  * If you pick an old book you **have to** support it with new materials (review articles or online resources)  
* **PLEASE DO NOT USE OUR OWN TEXT BOOK** which is *Virology: Principles and Applications* by *John Carter and Venetia Saunders (2007)*

A lame and a standard work will be;
* *just transfering slides*

# Markdown

We'll be using markdown format. If you click <i class="fa fa-question"></i> in top menu, you'll see that Markdown is pretty easy to grasp.

First of all we're preparing HTML slides meaning that we can share multimedia (image, recording, video, interactive visualization)

To share videos from YouTube, you can click on share <i class="fa fa-share-alt"></i> button and choose *Embed* and copy paste the `iframe` link.

OR

use the syntax like this:
