This set collects together journal articles and extracts from books to guide the reader to issues in educational and child development. Some of the ideas to influence developmental psychology in the 20th century are those of Russian psychologist Lev Vygotsky. All developmental psychology courses now include the work of Vygotsky as his ideas challenge existing theorists like Piaget. This four-volume set reveals Vygotsky's ideas about the way children learn and the role of thought and language, and demonstrates the educational implications of his work. Vygotsky's ideas offered an entirely separate approach to child development and children's education. The titles of the four volumes are: Volume One - Vygotsky's Theory; Volume Two - Thought and Language; Volume Three - The Zone of Proximal Development; and Volume Four - Future Directions.
