Beskrivning
Drawing attention to the pivotal ideas associated with 'the science of the cultural mind', this book centres on the idea that the human mind should be considered a sociocultural, rather than a natural or biological, phenomenon. Far from being purely theoretical, the science of the cultural mind has direct, practical implications for areas such as child development, the assessment of learning processes, and future-oriented education. The chapters are organized around five pivotal ideas and their applications, including mediated learning, symbolic tools, and leading activity. It also provides a systematic review of the Vygotskian theory and its contemporary implications in cognitive development. Written in an accessible and engaging style, this book contains examples of practical applications of the sociocultural theory of learning that will benefit students, researchers, and practitioners in child development, educational psychology, culture studies, and education.

Recensioner i media

'A landmark work that, for the first time, comprehensively presents the sociocultural approach to learning and synthesizes compelling evidence for it as key to optimizing education and human development in contemporary times. Alex Kozulin persuasively argues for a transformation in current educational practice as an urgent priority, from transmission of static knowledge and skills to 'learning how to learn'. Beyond that, this text is unique in clarifying the theoretical ideas and evidence-based teaching and assessment strategies essential for attaining this goal. Masterfully crafted, rich in research findings and practical examples, this book is an essential read for researchers and educators alike. A wonderful volume by a leading sociocultural theorist, investigator, and talented author that promises to have a major impact for years to come.' Laura E. Berk, Distinguished Professor of Psychology Emerita, Illinois State University
