Re: Training Examples - format for outlines

My thoughts:

Personal preference #4: For the way I personally process information, the best format is "Format 4 with tabular presentation for learning, outline and activity timing" <http://www.w3.org/WAI/EO/Drafts/training/2009/scenarios-tf.html#f3> However, I realize that the table format might not work as well for some users, for example, some screen reader users. Therefore, I would be fine with a better option for others.

Not #3: I am not comfortable with the DL formatting - "Format 3 with definition list presentation and learning as DT" <http://www.w3.org/WAI/EO/Drafts/training/2009/scenarios-tf.html#f7>. I think it is likely to be more complicated for some users.

Second choice is #2: While it is harder for me to read, I'm OK with "Format 2 separated under learnings as H4s" <http://www.w3.org/WAI/EO/Drafts/training/2009/scenarios-tf.html#f2> Although it's harder for me to process than the table, it's OK, and I appreciate that it might be easier for many others.[1]

Not the "(time first)" formats: As I mentioned at the last EOWG, I do not like having the times first because I think it would lead some presenters to focus too much on time, instead of conveying the message.

I look forward to other perspectives...

[1] NOTE: I think you do not need times on both the H4 and each bullet. I think only on the H4 is sufficient.
