learner versus student - maybe add learner to the glossary?

Open lauracion opened this issue 4 years ago • 0 comments

"Learner" is used rather than "student" "to avoid confusion when discussing things with people teaching in formal schools, where most people's understanding of 'student' definitely doesn't include teachers or professors." - but this distinction is opaque to most readers. Adding a footnote for its first appearance in the text and/or adding it to the Glossary would keep this message in the book.
