Thanks Leigh:

It looks relevant, definitely.  I didn't realize the connection with
Christopher Alexander goes so deep (it's been a while since I looked

Thank you!

Joe

PS.  I added a "See also" link to that article on
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peer_learning, which is basically the
"literature review" for Peeragogy.
