Manuel,
Yes, and you may have seen the "hole in the wall" video, where kids in
slums in India self-organize around learning, without any supervision at
all. "Explainer" roles emerge, and the thing advances beautifully.
Without any adults....(TED talk...)

The title of the talk is "Outdoctrination", skip to 6:30 it gets really
good there.
See also: a confirmation of "High Play"
