Jody, I think your post does a lot to explain what we mean by "Learning Modalities."
"Delivery method" is close tom and is at least included in, our concern with the future of learning.
We are not as interested in how the brain accepts new knowledge as we are in how new knowledge is being, and can be, delivered.
The task is not to 'teach' what the government, or any other person or organization, chooses. But to provide learning opportunities so that life-long self-learners can choose what, when and how they learn.
Not that an encyclopedia of learning modalities should limit itself to this concept. But, that it should make obvious that there is more to learning than schooling.
IMHO
