How do we learn?
.
Essentially, Piaget and Vygotsky were saying the same thing. That we don't learn and cannot learn in isolation. That our learning is a result of our relationship and interaction with others.
For Vygostsky learning required the social interaction with others if they are to reach their full potential - "zone of proximal development".
Similarly,cognitive development for Piaget is the result of constant participation with others, self and the world - within the context of the cultural and the social. Hence, adapting to the environment in the form of assimilation and accommodation the individual will similarly reflect his or her environment.

Changing the World vs. Changing Oneself
.
I saw this quote the other day by Aldous Huxley. I thought it was relevant especially wanting to be a future teacher in social sciences.
"I wanted to change the world. But I have found that the only thing one can be sure of changing is oneself."
It begs the question then, to what degree do we as educators support change in our students and what kind of change do we expect to support in our students?
