VYGOTSKY'S THEORY OF DEVELOPMENT

The work of Lev Vygotsky (1934) has become the foundation of much research and theory in cognitive development over the past several decades, particularly of what has become known as Social Development Theory.

Vygotsky's theory differs from that of Piaget in a number of important ways:
1. Vygotsky places more emphasis on culture affecting cognitive development.
2. Vygotsky places considerably more emphasis on social factors contributing to cognitive development.
3. Vygotsky places more (and different) emphasis on the role of language in cognitive development.
4. According to Vygotsky adults are an important source of cognitive development.
