if examn date would be fixed relative to the week, it would be no problem, since you could use the date macros combined with a forces starting point; however, in your case you'll probably need something structured:The tricky part is an easy way to associate dates (either single or a range, like a week) with general course/lecture content, and readings and assignments, and to lay it out clearly.My current syllabii are structured like: Week 5 (January 5-7) General week topic. Exam: January 7 Readings: pp 100-120, textbook
<date spec>
<content spec>
<date spec>
<content spec>
with the content in separate files.
The challenge here is to cook up a date spec that is flexible enough: relative dates and so. Implementing it is trivial, so if you and your collegues (or others on this list) cook up the requirements ... it can be a module
ps. next year i will move some code that we use for fill-in docs (question/answers) into a module; think of hiding answers and so
