Week 4: Vygotsky, ZPD and what Children can do with Help

This week was about Lev Vygotsky.  I hope you all had fun with the money activity and learning about the ZPD and scaffolding.  If you’re thirsty for more, you’ll get plenty later in this class and your Theory class.  Here is this week’s handout.
For homework this week, I would like you to bring me a copy of one of your reflections from your journal.  You don't need to type it, or make it pretty.  Just make a photocopy and bring it to class next week.   

This will not be graded.  It will count for part of your participation grade, though.   Basically, I want to get an informal understanding of how you are doing in my course and possibly help you get more from your reflection.
