FOSSA 101, Session 2

FOSSA Learning began in response to five problems. I saw each of these problems myself - as a teacher or a director of studies, or later when I was selling or building Learning Things myself. Often, I still see these problems when I try to learn something new.

We'll talk about each of them in turn - and about an experiment or solution for each of them, too. But here they are, as a list of problems or voices. Going back to your New Learning Thing launch, imagine a person saying this as they walk out the door.

1. Cost: "I cannot afford this."
2. Software or system requirements: "My machine can't run this."
3. Size: "The download file is too large for my storage / data plan."
4. Confusing language: "I cannot understand this."
5. Lack of accessibility for people with disabilities: "I cannot access this."
