He mentions "pedagogical" and "teaching tool". Who is he teaching? I would love to be his student.

I read that more in a context of "teaching oneself". However, I think he's at google atm: http://herpolhode.com/rob/

I'm pretty sure it's a small project to teach himself.

Maybe, but the phrasing is "I plan to use this as a teaching tool" and not "I did this as a learning experience".
