Abstract:
This article deals with extensions of Vygotsky's (1978) theory of learning in the zone of proximal development. First, affect is added as an additional prerequisite Wertsch's (1979) extended version of it. Then, learning in the zone of proximal development is applied to communicative development. Finally, four main levels in the development from interindividual to intraindividual functioning of communication in the child are distinguished and exemplified.

The article presents an analysis of L.S. Vygotsky’s concept of a zone of proximal development (ZPD); considers various ZPD definitions; provides a critical review of the most popular definition of ZPD as adopted from L.S. Vygotsky’s 1935 work and used as basic by English-speaking authors. Taking into account the fact that L.S. Vygotsky’s general methodological intention was to establish psychology as a practice and that his developmental theory as well as the ZPD concept development remained incomplete due to the known life circumstances, we analyze L.S. Vygotsky’s writings that allow for anot

Abstract:
The past decade has been a time for much discussion about the influence of social interaction on the development of mathematical understanding. The roots of this discussion can be traced back to the ideas of Lev Vygotsky, a Russian psychologist who conducted research during the 1920s and 1930s. He was interested in how children conceptualize the meanings of words. He concluded that social interaction and communication are essential components in this conceptualization process. To show how children learn mathematical language, this article examines a classroom vignette and demonstrates how Vygo

Abstract:
Identification of the gifted student is problematic. Prescription, the matching of student needs with program services, is perhaps even more precarious. To optimize potential and maximize achievement, diagnosis and instruction should be linked, on going, and based on state-of-the-art knowledge. Despite a burgeoning paradigm shift in the theory and practice of assessment in general, identification procedures for the gifted remain little changed. The bulk of the literature still recommends standardized, “product” measures of potential and achievement. Although status-quo recommendations include

Unfortunately, when it comes to instruction, these literacies are often disregarded. Tasks given are not relevant or at an appropriate level, what Vygotsky termed the zone of proximal development.

This statement is put in a row with two other major principles: one arguing that learning precedes development and the other referring to the zone of proximal development.

Throughout childhood, children experience the social semiotic of music in a variety of ways. As they sing, dance, move, and play, they enjoy making and listening to music. Childhood is also a time of immense change. During their early years, children grow and develop at a faster rate than at any other time in their lives, displaying an intense proliferation of ways of knowing about the world. As part of the industrious activity that accompanies this explosion of knowledge, children sing many songs. It is through sensitive investigation of these songs that we can begin to understand what c

This understanding enriched my practice of teaching so that I could become a better facilitator of similar projects in the future.

Abstract:
The article discusses the ways in which natural language might be implicated in human cognition. The Soviet psychologist Lev Vygotsky developed his ideas on the interrelations between language and thought, both in the course of child development and in mature human cognition. One of Vygostky's ideas concerned the ways in which the language deployed by adults can scaffold children's development, yielding what he called a ‘zone of proximal development’. He argued that what children can achieve alone and unaided is not a true reflection of their understanding. Vygotsky focused on the overt speech
