Discussion

After reading about Vygotsky’s theories and seeing how they could apply to a variety of different learning situations, consider the following questions below, then join your classmates on Blackboard to share your thoughts.

  1. Do you think that technology and the rate it has trained us to react faster has increased the rate by which our ZPD expands?

  2. Does learning quicker necessarily reflect a faster moving ZPD if the learning is not deeply understood?

  3. How has technology changed the way children play? Is play through technology still a reflection of unrealized desires?
