¶ Pyragogy Handbook — AI Edition
Abstract
Pyragogy is the evolution of Peeragogy in the AI era: peer learning where AI is not a tool but a cognitive peer. This living handbook documents human–AI co-learning through patterns, methods, real cases and enabling technologies. Produced through ongoing human–AI collaboration, it stabilises the best of an open cognitive process.
¶ Contesto
Peeragogy taught us to learn together since 2012. Pyragogy asks: what happens when AI joins the room as a true participant?
Groups now manage cognitive acceleration, epistemic tension, shared memory across humans and agents, and ethical co-creation. This handbook maps the shift with conceptual precision and practical honesty.
¶ What this handbook is
This is not raw AI generation.
This is not a static book.
It is a living handbook — dynamic in method, stable in public form — produced through human–AI collaboration and human-in-the-loop editorial decisions.
¶ How to read it (Istruzioni/Soluzione)
- Start with About this Edition to understand the editorial process.
- Explore the 4 pillars below to find what you need: patterns to apply, methods to practice, cases to learn from, technologies to build with.
- Use the Glossary for precise terminology.
- Everything here is stabilised frontstage: readable, structured and temporarily stable.
- Raw drafts, debates and unreviewed AI output live in the backstage (forge.pyragogy.org and collaborative pads).

¶ Current editorial stance
This handbook is not finished.
It is being shaped through ongoing human and AI collaboration.
What is stable here is stable by editorial decision — never by claim of final truth.
