Hi Peter,

Rapid Learning is a terminology-first, experiment driven method for learning 
technology. Here's a flow chart of the Rapid Learning process:

http://www.troubleshooters.com/bookstore/rl.htm#flowchart

I also wrote about it in this Troubleshooting Professional Magazine:
http://www.troubleshooters.cxm/tpromag/9712.htm

The latest Linux Productivity Magazine is set up as a Rapid Learning resource:
http://www.troubleshooters.cxm/lpm/200612/200612.htm

Please note the preceding page is *not well edited yet*, and has not been 
linked to nor publicized.

If I decide to use VO for Rapid Learning (I've used HTML until now), Noel's 
table enhancements (use of | symbol), because the terminology glossary 
requires three column tables (term, definition, and example sentence). Also, 
it will require executable lines to incorporate, display and edit terminology 
diagrams.

HTH
