**Big changes for Techne!**

First of all is mostly behind the scenes, but I have started using a program called Hugo (https://gohugo.io) for making the website, which will speed up my workflow. Not only that, but Hugo comes with themes that offer many features, including layouts that I can only dream of, built-in search function, menus, charts by code, etc. I'm really excited about it, and the whole site has a fresh new look as well. Be sure to check it out and let me know what you think!

There is also some new content as we progress towards version 0.4. Level 1, Topic 1: How to Use This Program now has an Intermediate level lesson, giving more advice on using Techne, making it easier, and making options clearer.

Science (Level 2, Topic 5) also got the Intermediate treatment (a bit out of sequence, but I was inspired), with not only more to learn about science itself, but full lessons on Chaos Theory, Evolution, and Ecology. So why these subjects then? They do all relate to many of the other topics in the program, and having a basic understanding of them does have benefits for your life too. If you want any more convincing, just check out the Why These Topics in the first lesson's introduction, or Why This Matters in each subject, just like with every topic in the program.
