The article's currently a just-the-facts biography, with fairly old sources. Our article social learning (social pedagogy) claims that an 1844 article of Mager's coined the term "social pedagogy", which might be a useful avenue along which to research a more updated biography with focus on the influence of his ideas. I have rather little knowledge in that area, though. -- Delirium ( talk) 07:03, 24 January 2009 (UTC) reply
