Sociocultural Theory and the Teaching of Second Languages
Edited by James P. Lantolf and Matthew E. Poehner
Publisher: Equinox Publishing

Summary: The fourteen original chapters included in the present volume document innovations in second and foreign language teaching that are rooted in Vygotsky’s theory of cognitive development. Researchers and language teaching practitioners will find implementations at the classroom and programmatic levels of Vygotskian principles and concepts, including cognitive mediation, the zone of proximal development, activity theory, internalization, verbalization, and materialization.
