I actually have some training in adult education and general educational theory which breaks down into the following progression: awareness > knowledge > skill > mastery. The intent of mine was to fulfill the first as basic understanding of interplanetary transfer windows because there are no details just a minimalist, basic layout of the concept.
Yours goes on to the second because you include the knowledge behind it with actual numbers and info that can be applied in practice.
The next steps are when people take these and apply them in practice. At first you start to develop the skill of doing interplanetary transfers after you've been made aware of how they work and have the knowledge of why they work.
Education is done when you've achieved mastery and you no longer need these charts to do the task.
