I like the graphics and simple layout and as always the graphics are great.

The opening statement "personally relevant, engaging learning opportunities" 
points to content and not delivery. We are not diversifying or customizing 
content but the mode of learning and learning delivery. We are also helping 
individuals learn how to learn and learn how they learn best. 

I like that we generalize the inclusive design principles but I think we should 
also indicate that we are addressing the needs of students experiencing 
disabilities. This is our most urgent user group. Can we add a link to the IDRC 
and the definition of Inclusive Design? 

The story of FLOE is that learners are diverse, not standard or typical, that 
accessibility is not achieved through a single configuration or design, that 
learners learn best when learning is personalized. Also that the OER ecosystem 
is the perfect place to diversify and personalize learning because of the 
diversity of resources and the opportunity to collectively create variants. 

Rather than the one TV watching example, which is very limited and doesn't 
encourage imagining the range of possibilities, can we show a diversity of 
learners with a diversity of configurations? Among these examples should be 
learners among the full spectrum of disabilities or barriers to learning 
including "environmental disabilities."

thanks
Jutta
