“The Mozart of Psychology”
Lev Semonovich Vygotsky was born in Western Russia on November 5, 1986.His father, Semi L’vovich, founded the “Society of Education in Gomel”, and held a wide range of active interest including foreign language, history, literature, theater and arts. His mother was educated as teacher.
In 1917, he graduated from Moscow University with a degree in Law.
Vygotsky completed 270 scientific articles,numerous,lectures and 10 books based on a wide range of Marxist-based psychological and teaching theories.
He is considered a seminal thinker in psychology, and much of his work is still discovered and explored today.
He died on June 10, 1934 at 37 after long battle with TB.

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.
Social learning theory focuses on the learning that occurs within a social context. It considers that people learn from one another, including such concepts as observational learning, imitation, and modeling. Among others Albert Bandura is considered the leading proponent of this theory.

Hello everyone!
Social learning theory is described as being a “theory of learning process and social behavior which proposes that new behaviors can be acquired by observing and imitating others.” Learning is a social experience in a lot of different ways. Social interactions are critical in learning. We learn so much from interacting with others and our environment. The fundamental principles of social learning states that “learning occurs when observing other's behaviors and the resulting outcomes of those behaviors.” Observation and mimicking are the first forms of learning as a child. Peer collaboration, reciprocal teaching, apprenticeships, and scaffolding are all examples of learning using the social model. In other words, we learn from everything around us. We learn from our interactions as it stimulates developmental processes and fosters cognitive growth, the information that is “learned” is transformed into knowledge.
Lev Vygotsky is a constructivist theorist; he placed more emphasis on the social environment being a factor in learning. Vygotsky’s theory stresses that “the interaction of interpersonal (social), cultural-historical, and individual factors as the key to human development. Vygotsky considered the social environment critical for learning and thought that social interactions form learning experiences” (Schunk, page 242). One of the fundamental concepts presented by Lev Vygotsky is that a person’s interactions with the environment aid in their learning. Social interactions are necessary for learning to take place, and that knowledge is gained when two or more people interact with one another. Another concept would be self-regulation, which involves “the coordination of mental processes such as planning, synthesizing, and forming concepts” (Schunk, page 252)..

Respond to 8 students - due in 2 hours - 50 words each - I have put a guided response for each set to help with the response:
Guided Response:
Review several of your classmates’ posts and respond to at least two classmates. Offer an additional example of how development of the age groups your classmates selected influence curriculum decisions.
Student 1: Tracie:
The age group I chose is 3-5 years of age. The physical development of children in this age group is movement and coordination which can also influence the curriculum. During this time, children’s’ brains are like sponges. They are watching and learning everything in their environment. This age group brings a “wide variety of experiences to the preschool setting, which should serve to inform curricular decisions (Jaruszewicz, 2013). The social and emotional aspect of this age group is that of caring, understanding and many more. Three to five-year old’s need the aptness to proceed around and we as teachers should promote physical development. A great way of doing this is consistently doing active play inside and also outside of the classroom. Teachers should label bins and shelves that have objects such as toys and the areas they are playing/ working in. The children will be able to independently pick them up and return them as they play. Incorporate games in the curriculum that lets them move free and easily within the game.
Cognitive aspect of a 3-5-year-old is that their brain functions are learning things on a daily base to help the child. In the newsletter by Paraskevopoulou it was written: “Curriculums that include topics such as appropriate scheduling, creating a developmentally appropriate classroom, and making the most of learning centers, will help create a classroom environment that actively engages the child and keeps his or her attention. When implemented in the classroom, these components contribute to less discipline problems and a smoother day” (Paraskevopoulou, F, (2008).
The key to successful learning, especially for children ages 3-5, you must have a classroom environment that’s design especially for them. The environment should be one where they able to move around freely with no obstacles in their way. The curriculum must be on the preschool level for the students to understand.

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.

Vygotsky’s sociocultural theory of learning
1.
2.
Over the course of the semester, I have been exposed
to many theories about children and how they learn
and process information. I am thankful that the
educational system, while far from perfect, has made
an effort to move from the “Leave it to Beaver” style
of teaching to new and innovative methods. From
Gardner’s Multiple Intelligences to the Montessori
way of teaching, the educational system has come a
long way from the 1950’s mainstream way of
teaching. While all of the theories and principles are
very valid, the one that resonates the most with me is
Lev Vygotsky’s Sociocultural Theory.
3.
4.
5.
In a nutshell, Lev Vygotsky’s theory states that
children learn from their interactions with
society and their culture and that, with help,
they can learn even more. Of all of the theories
that we have learned about, this one meshes
the best with my own views. His theory puts
the teacher in the role of a mentor. To me,
teaching is mentoring and mentoring is
helping. The idea of scaffolding, or helping a
child attain the identified goals represents the
ideal way to help a child achieve true learning.
6.
7.
Social interaction is critical for cognitive
development. Related to this is the idea of Zone
of Proximal Development (ZPD). Some skills
an individual can perform independently;
other skills can be performed if the individual
has assistance. Skills that can be performed
with assistance are said to be within an
individual’s ZPD. The ZPD is the theoretical
basis for scaffolding.
-www. teachersgarden.com/professionalresources/learningtheorists.html
8.
[Children’s] understanding of this world
comes, in part, from the values and beliefs of the
adults and other children in their lives
(Mooney, 2006).
“…children need to learn more than a set of facts and
skills. They need to master a set of mental tools—tools
of the mind.”
http://www.toolsofthemind.org/philosophy/vygotskianapproach/
“Play” is an integral part of a child’s learning
“A child’s greatest achievements are possible in
play, achievements that tomorrow will become her
basic level of real action.” - Vygotsky
9.
“…understanding the relationship between
theory and practice is realizing that the student is
more important than the teacher in determining
what is learned.”
(www. education.com/reference/article/theories of learning)
10.
The best way to implement Vgotsky’s theory is
through group work, so this is the strategy I
plan to use the most. The group work can be
accomplished in several ways, but three jump
immediately to mind.
Peer to peer
Parents/family
Community
11. Students work in pairs or small groups
• Provides students the opportunity to share with one
another their ideas, views and opinions
• Non threatening, relaxed environment assures that
students feel comfortable asking questions and putting
forth ideas
• Students more likely to listen to one another
Teacher’s Role:
• Identify goals that students need to meet and what
work needs to be accomplished. Provide higher level of
assistance than peers are able demonstrating
Vygotsky’s theory that students can attain higher levels
with assistance from a more competent individual.
•
12.
Bring parents/family into classroom to assist students
in learning
Provides a safe and secure environment
Especially effective for ELLs
Teacher’s Role:
Use the resource of family to help students attain
their educational goals. Use these members as the
more competent individuals to assist the students,
thereby increasing their ZPD. Again, this fits into
Vygotsky’s theory because it utilizes the student’s
strongest connection, that of family, to create
scaffolding that the student can build on to meet the
identified goals. For ELLs, they are also able to learn
in their primary language.
13. Bringing community members into the class
introduces students to a larger “family” than
what they find when they go home.
Accomplishes many of the same objectives as
formal family members, but provides extra
scaffolding.
Introduces students to new ways of thinking
and problem solving
Teacher’s Role:
The same as utilizing formal family members.
14.
Bringing family and community members into the
classroom has the added benefit of exposing students
to new and different cultures and diversity.
It exposes students to different ways of thinking and
different possible solutions.
It creates a student driven classroom where the
likelihood of students buying into their education is
greatly increased. This in turn increases interest in
learning.
It creates higher standards which in turn lead to
greater accomplishments.
Produces well rounded, confident individuals who
grow into high producing adults.

While Vygotsky’s theory works best in small
groups, there is ample opportunity to
incorporate individual work as well. The
individual work can also be used as
assessments. Working alone will show the
teacher what the student actually knows and
also how much the student’s actual
development has increased.
