selecting from the session document a classified structural element;

presenting the selected structural element to a user participant;

recording, during the presentation, identities of presented structural elements, durations of presentation of presented structural elements, and sequence of presentation of presented structural elements; and

comparing the planned agenda with the recorded identities, durations, and sequence.

2. The method of claim 1 further comprising analyzing the comparison of the planned agenda with the recorded identities, durations, and sequence.

3. The method of claim 2 wherein analyzing the comparison of the planned agenda with the recorded identities, durations, and sequence further comprises contrasting the durations and sequence of presented structural elements according to the planned agenda with the durations and sequence as recorded.

4. The method of claim 1 further comprising receiving a presentation control instruction, wherein:

the presentation control instruction includes a presentation action identifier and one or more optional parameters; and

selecting a classified structural element includes selecting a classified structural element in dependence upon the presentation action identifier and the parameters.

5. The method of claim 4 wherein:

the presentation control instruction includes a presentation action identifier and one or more optional parameters; and

selecting a classified structural element includes selecting a classified structural element in dependence upon the presentation action identifier and the parameters.

6. The method of claim 4 further comprising creating the presentation control instruction, including:

receiving from a user participating in the presentation a key phrase and optional parameters for invoking a presentation action; and

parsing the key phrase and parameters against a voice response grammar into a presentation control instruction.

7. The method of claim 1 wherein selecting a classified structural element further comprises selecting a classified structural element having an associated classification identifier that corresponds to at least one user classification of at least one user participant in the presentation.

8. The method of claim 1 further comprising creating a session document from a presentation document, including:

identifying a presentation document for a presentation, the presentation document including a presentation grammar and a structured document having structural elements classified with classification identifiers;

identifying a user participant for the presentation, the user having a user profile comprising user classifications; and

filtering the structured document in dependence upon the user classifications and the classification identifiers.

9. The method of claim 8 further comprising creating a presentation document, including:

creating, in dependence upon an original document, a structured document comprising one or more structural elements;

classifying a structural element of the structured document according to a presentation attribute; and

creating a presentation grammar for the structured document, wherein the presentation grammar for the structured document includes grammar elements each of which includes an identifier for at least one structural element of the structured document.

10. A system for differential dynamic content delivery, the system comprising at least one computer processor, at least one computer memory operatively coupled to the computer processor, and computer program instructions disposed within the computer memory capable of:
