Overview

Add resources here! Any interesting papers you come across related to peer learning, open education, motivation, reward, recognition, incentives, online environments, tools, community development, etc.....

Putting a paper here doesn't mean you promise it's interesting or that we have to read it. It's just a place to keep a list of items that pique your interest and a place to get ideas for choosing readings. As we go through and actually read some of them, we'll hopefully get a cool reading list emerge that others can use, extend, fork, whatever. 

Also note that we don't all have to read exactly the same papers -  some weeks we might have two papers that appeal to different subsets of the group, for example maybe some people are into a community formation paper and others want to read an evaluation paper. All good.  

Please include:

Title, authors, publication venue and year, with a link to the paper if at all possible. 

Also include your name so we know who proposed each paper. (The proposer doesn't necessarily have to be the "owner" of a paper when we read it, but that would probably be the default).
