Hey! Remember "programmed learning" ? This was going to be the next
best thing back in the 70's. Basically you read a paragraph or two in
a book, and then took a multiple choice test. Based on your choice,
you would go to a page that would either (1) tell you that you were
wrong, and why or (2) tell you that you were right and send you on
your way to the next section.

It doesn't seem to have caught on in the book world, but it seems like
a natural for TW. Present a tiddler's worth of info, and then have a
multiple choice answer at the bottom, each answer being a link
directing you to a different tiddler.

I've started to write a text on how-to-write-javascript-for-TW here:

But its a lot of work, and I'm not sure how helpful.
