Why do you think this might be? nmazzane https://padlet.com/mylesgould28/7yscwb80b33n/wish/253733958 School is more group work based
    Uni and some colleges are more lecture base - not very much interaction between students and teachers ]]>     2018-04-20 08:30:29 UTC https://padlet.com/mylesgould28/7yscwb80b33n/wish/253733958     How might educational functions of classroom talk be developed? mylesgould28 https://padlet.com/mylesgould28/7yscwb80b33n/wish/253735507 Classroom talk could have educational functions if group-activity is allowed and well structured by a teacher so they stay on topic]]> 2018-04-20 08:36:22 UTC https://padlet.com/mylesgould28/7yscwb80b33n/wish/253735507 Why is 'dialogic process' of teaching and learning important? https://padlet.com/mylesgould28/7yscwb80b33n/wish/253735622 It is important to use dialogue in classrooms to learn from others and hear other people's arguments.]]> 2018-04-20 08:37:01 UTC https://padlet.com/mylesgould28/7yscwb80b33n/wish/253735622 adamkwong https://padlet.com/mylesgould28/7yscwb80b33n/wish/253736090 The most important application of Vygotsky's theory to education is in his concept of a zone of proximal development. This concept is important because teachers can use it as a guide to a child's development. It allows a teacher to know what a student is able to achieve through the use of a mediator and thus enables the teacher to help the child attain that level by themselves.]]> 2018-04-20 08:39:04 UTC https://padlet.com/mylesgould28/7yscwb80b33n/wish/253736090 adamkwong https://padlet.com/mylesgould28/7yscwb80b33n/wish/253737006 The second important aspect of Vygotsky's theory is the role of play in his theory. According to this perspective teachers need to provide children,especially young children, many opportunities to play. Through play, and imagination a child's conceptual abilities are stretched]]> 2018-04-20 08:42:58 UTC https://padlet.com/mylesgould28/7yscwb80b33n/wish/253737006 https://padlet.com/mylesgould28/7yscwb80b33n/wish/253739492 2018-04-20 08:52:01 UTC https://padlet.com/mylesgould28/7yscwb80b33n/wish/253739492 Vygotsky activities https://padlet.com/mylesgould28/7yscwb80b33n/wish/253741721 2018-04-20 09:00:04 UTC https://padlet.com/mylesgould28/7yscwb80b33n/wish/253741721 mylesgould28 https://padlet.com/mylesgould28/7yscwb80b33n/wish/253741738 "What a child can do today with assistance , she can do by herself tomorrow" - Lev Vygotsky ]]> 2018-04-20 09:00:08 UTC https://padlet.com/mylesgould28/7yscwb80b33n/wish/253741738 https://padlet.com/mylesgould28/7yscwb80b33n/wish/253742316 2018-04-20 09:02:18 UTC https://padlet.com/mylesgould28/7yscwb80b33n/wish/253742316 Classrooms https://padlet.com/mylesgould28/7yscwb80b33n/wish/253743972 2018-04-20 09:09:17 UTC https://padlet.com/mylesgould28/7yscwb80b33n/wish/253743972
