	former. 

Slide 2
	Again, much more like farming than cooking.

	Pattern of high-level components and mechanical bits 
	
	Treat everyone fairly, which isn't necessarily equally (e.g. Siliac) `

	Often but not always multi-disp, start single move to multi
	
	Make it easy to transfer technical knowlege easily among the group

	Consider the mantra "under promise and over deliver". 

	Sharing materials - GDrive or another agnostic platform (is it accessible? Jana?)

	grows.

Slide 3
	What do we know about material that is engaged in many different ways? That is: read,
	discussed, recalled, applied, and summarized? 
	
	You pick the destination, everyone chooses the path(s) to follow, the speed, etc.
