A few years ago, I created a list of learning -agogies as a reference for myself and anyone else interested. I didn’t have time to finish it and left some of the non-epistemological -agogies defined. So I decided to make a more completed and updated list, but housed on a page that I can update as needed in the future. Making a blog post every time someone proposes a new -agogy would just end up being confusing. So if you want to make any additions to this page, let me know:
As you can see, I added learnagogy, dronagogy (which I still say should be dronology), and several of the other words I mentioned but didn’t define in the original post.
