/ Stephan Wiesner <stephan@stephan-wiesner.de> was heard to say:
| Hi list,
| I used to work with a DTD developed at my university that offers the
| possibility to start each chapter with a 'goal' ('What you will learn')
| and end it with a 'conclusion' ('What you learned'). This is very
| important for my style of writing and many of my readers praised me for
| this structuring. 
| I am now translating my documents into docbook and didn't find anything
| similiar to this. Which tags should I use for this?

You might use highlights for the 'what will you learn' section. And I'd
suggest simplesect with an appropriate title at the end for conclusions.

                                        Be seeing you,
                                          norm
