The category collects learning materials and procedural pages in support of a project on ''Peer Educational Resources'' (PERs). This project addresses a host of problems that I've observed arising in various projects devoted to developing ''Open Educational Resources'' (OERs).

In connection with this idea, I envisioned a way organizing materials that uses the concepts of ''Focal Nodes'' and ''Peer Nodes''. There is some hint of what I have in mind here on the pages outlining the two sub-projects, [[Inquiry Live]] and [[Logic Live]].

I'll try to articulate a more detailed rationale on this and other pages later on, but this project is somewhat more experimental than thoroughly worked out ahead of time — as I'll be looking for new ways to break out of developmental ruts that I've observed over the last decade.

* '''Focal nodes''' serve as hubs for collections of related resources, in particular, activities and articles.
* '''Peer nodes''' are roughly parallel pages on different sites that are not necessarily identical in content — especially as they develop in time through interaction with diverse populations — but they should preserve enough information to reproduce each other, more or less, in case of damage or loss.
