Splitting and writing various contents upstream depending on the target audience sounds like "premature optimization". Sure, assumptions on who are the readers cannot be avoided, but the side-effects of having wrong assumptions are less damaging when the content stay consistent rather than targetted (upstream and early.) Also, it seems easier to build adapted learning path from consistent content rather than to build consistent content from splitted paths. Think of software design: you want a consistent set of features before considering customization, rather than several set of pre- configured versions before general consistent defaults. I know this analogy has its limits, but still. 2 cts, -- Bastien _______________________________________________ Education mailing list Education@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/education
