lightweight learning sample topics

Hi lightweight DITA and learning content
enthusiasts -

Building on the discussion Amber Swope
led at our Dec 7 meeting and on Michael Priestley's strawman summary of
topic and map types, I put together a set of sample lightweight learning
and training topics for further review and discussion.

3) Lightweight Assessment Topic
- This assessment topic includes embedded
topics for singleselect, multipleselect, and openquestion. 
- The assessment topic might have it's
own body content, if needed to introduce a set of questions or a test,
etc.
- Each question could be in a separate
file and included into the assessment with a conref.
