Vygotsky's sociocultural theory of human learning describes learning as a social process and the origination of human intelligence in society or culture.
The work of Lev Vygotsky (1934) has become the foundation of much research and theory in cognitive development over the past several decades specially in Social Development Theory.
Vygotsky's theories stress the fundamental role of social interaction in the development of cognition , as he believed strongly that community plays a central role in the process of "making meaning."
He believed that Social Learning tends to precede development unlike Piaget's notion that childrens' development must necessarily precede their learning.
He argued, "learning is a necessary and universal aspect of the process of developing culturally organized, specifically human psychological function" (1978, p. 90).
Vygotsky has developed a socio cultural approach to cognitive development.
His theories are incomplete due to death at an early age of 38.
Some of his writings are still being translated from Russian.

Lev Vygotsky’s Social Development Theory
Elizabeth M. Riddle
Lev Vygotsky, born in the U.S.S.R. in 1896, is responsible for the social development theory of
learning. He proposed that social interaction profoundly influences cognitive development.
Central to Vygotsky's theory is his belief that biological and cultural development do not occur
in isolation (Driscoll, 1994).
Vygotsky approached development differently from Piaget. Piaget believed that cognitive
development consists of four main periods of cognitive growth: sensorimotor, preoperational,
concrete operations, and formal operations (Saettler, 331). Piaget's theory suggests that
development has an endpoint in goal. Vygotsky, in contrast, believed that development is a
process that should be analyzed, instead of a product to be obtained. According to Vygotsky, the
development process that begins at birth and continues until death is too complex to to be
defined by stages (Driscoll, 1994; Hausfather,1996).
Vygotsky believed that this life long process of development was dependent on social interaction
and that social learning actually leads to cognitive development. This phenomena is called the
Zone of Proximal Development . Vygotsky describes it as "the distance between the actual
development level as determined by independent problem solving and the level of potential
development as determined through problem solving under adult guidance or in collaboration
with more capable peers" (Vygotsky, 1978). In other words, a student can perform a task under
adult guidance or with peer collaboration that could not be achieved alone. The Zone of Proximal
Development bridges that gap between what is known and what can be known. Vygotsky
claimed that learning occurred in this zone.
Therefore, Vygotsky focused on the connections between people and the cultural context in
which they act and interact in shared experiences (Crawford, 1996). According to Vygotsky,
humans use tools that develop from a culture, such as speech and writing, to mediate their social
environments. Initially children develop these tools to serve solely as social functions, ways to
communicate needs. Vygotsky believed that the internalization of these tools led to higher
thinking skills. When Piaget observed young children participating in egocentric speech in their
preoperational stage, he believed it was a phase that disappeared once the child reached the stage
of concrete operations. In contrast, Vygotsky viewed this egocentric speech as a transition from
social speech to internalized thoughts (Driscoll, 1994). Thus, Vygotsky believed that thought and
language could not exist without each other.
Application of the Social Development Theory to Instructional Design
Traditionally, schools have not promoted environments in which the students play an active role
in their own education as well as their peers'. Vygotsky's theory, however, requires the teacher
and students to play ...
Organizational Identification of Millennial employees working remotely: Quali...HennaAnsari
The problem of practice for this study is to understand how Millennial employees identify with their organizations when working in a remote role. Understanding the employee experience could help us consider OID which is linked to range of positive employee outcomes, such as low turnover intention and higher engagement, as well as improved employee satisfaction, well-being, and employee performance (Ashforth, 2008 ). Actively disengaged employees manifest discontent by undermining more engaged employees’ efforts, and these workers can actively seek to harm the organization (Carrillo, 2017; Kompaso, 2010; Walden, 2017).

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

2. Introduction
Vygotsky’s sociocultural theory of human learning describes learning
as a social process and the origination of human intelligence in
society or culture. The major theme of Vygotsky’s theoretical
framework is that social interaction plays a fundamental role in the
development of cognition. Social Development Theory argues that
social interaction precedes development; consciousness and
cognition are the end product of socialization and social behaviour.

3. KEY CONCEPTS
Vygotsky’s Social Development Theory is the work of Russian psychologist Lev Vygotsky (1896-
1934). Vygotsky’s work was largely unknown to the West until it was published in 1962.
Vygotsky’s theory is one of the foundations of constructivism. It asserts three major themes
regarding social interaction, the more knowledgeable other, and the zone of proximal
development.
Social interaction plays a fundamental role in the process of cognitive development. In contrast
to Jean Piaget’s understanding of child development (in which development necessarily
precedes learning), Vygotsky felt social learning precedes development. He states: “Every
function in the child’s cultural development appears twice: first, on the social level, and later, on
the individual level; first, between people (inter-psychological) and then inside the child (intra-
psychological)”.
4. THE ZONE OF PROXIMAL DEVELOPMENT (ZPD)
The ZPD is the distance between a student’s ability to perform
a task under adult guidance and/or with peer collaboration
and the student’s ability solving the problem independently.
According to Vygotsky, learning occurred in this zone.
Vygotsky focused on the connections between people and the
sociocultural context in which they act and interact in shared
experiences. According to Vygotsky, humans use tools that
develop from a culture, such as speech and writing, to
mediate their social environments. Initially children develop
these tools to serve solely as social functions, ways to
communicate needs. Vygotsky believed that the
internalization of these tools led to higher thinking skills.
5. THE ZONE OF PROXIMAL DEVELOPMENT
(ZPD)
Vygotsky (1978) sees the Zone of Proximal
Development as the area where the most sensitive
instruction or guidance should be given - allowing the
child to develop skills they will then use on their own -
developing higher mental functions.
Vygotsky also views interaction with peers as an
effective way of developing skills and strategies. He
suggests that teachers use cooperative learning
exercises where less competent children develop with
help from more skilful peers - within the zone of
proximal development.
6. More Knowledgeable Other (MKO)
According to Vygotsky’s theory of cognitive development,
children learn through social interaction that include
collaborative and cooperative dialogue with someone who
is more skilled in tasks they’re trying to learn. Vygotsky
called these people with higher skill level the More
Knowledgeable Other (MKO). They could be teachers,
parents, tutors and even peers.
7. Scaffolding
Vygotsky’s concept of scaffolding is closely
related to the concept of the Zone of Proximal
Development. Scaffolding refers to the
temporary support given to a child by a More
Knowledgeable Other that enables the child to
perform a task until such time that the child
can perform this task independently.
Scaffolding entails changing the quality and
quantity of support provided to a child in the
course of a teaching session. The MKO adjusts
the level of guidance in order to fit the
student’s current level of performance.
