There's a lot to like about this short paper from 2001. The authors write, "Education is the result of an emergent complex process. It may not be the result of the action of one isolated strategy or the accomplished goal of one isolated agent... education, as a complex phenomenon, can emerge from interactions among agents having different and completentary abilities." They then demonstrate this principle with a multi-agent architecture, "an educational community composed of human and non-human agents." (I searched for follow-ups since 2001, but didn't find anything. Wish it had gone somewhere).
