Vygotsky was a Russian psychologist who developed the social constructivist theory. The theory focuses on how social and cultural aspects influence cognitive development. According to Vygotsky, social interaction plays a fundamental role in developing cognition. He believed that community and social learning precede development. Key concepts in Vygotsky's theory include the zone of proximal development, which is the area where guidance allows children to develop skills they will use independently, and the more knowledgeable other, referring to someone with a higher ability level to help the learner. Vygotsky also viewed language as developing from social interactions and believed thought and language merge around age three when they become interdependent.

9. Zone of proximal development
This is an important concept that relates to the
difference between what a child can achieve independently
and what a child can achieve with guidance and
encouragement from a skilled partner
Vygotsky 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.

Thought and language are initially
separate system from the beginning of life
merging at around three years of ago.

interdependent. CCby - Pushpanjali Y

14. Three forms of language
1. Social speech:-which is external communication
used to talk to others (from the age of 2).
2. Private speech:-which is directed to the self and
serves an intellectual function (from the age of 3).
3. Silent inner speech:- finally private speech goes
underground diminishing in a audibility as it takes
on a self regulating function and is transformed
into silent inner speech(from the age of 7)
