OK. I see. ... but imo I've seen some tiddlers, that only contained half a 
sentence or a headline. ... So imo half a sentence without context looses 
its meaning. ... So may be in the second step .. some "mergers" would be 
helpful. .. but that's just my opinion.

That makes perfect sense.  .... But how do you manage to provide the 
context for the teacher? Because imo s/he needs the "surrounding" text to 
get the context or even the "big picture", for the explanation. ....


But anyway ... it's a very nice TW, with a lot of potential. .. I could 
even think of much more tags to connect similar areas of knowledge. ... But 
I didn't dig deep enough for this :)

have fun!
