Hey
@andy_matuschak, first I want to say brilliant article. Second, thank you for your work on@khanacademy - that has helped me so much throughout my academic career. Third, apologies if I sounded too direct; in fact, I concur with you in some areas. -
If we consider dyslexics, they are fighting the tool - a book - as it is presented rather than gaining the utility of the tool. For them, and others who have neurological complications, books absolutely fail. Wouldn't it be amazing to have books like this that engage everything?
