Lev Vygotsky's Cultural Historical Theory** Schunk, Chapter 6: Constructivist Theory, p. 234-277

//**Constructivism**// is a psychological and philosophical perspective contenting that individuals form or //**construct**// much of what they learn and understand (Schunk, 2008, p. 235). Vygostsky places a significant emphasis on the role of social mediation and interaction in the proces of knowledge construction.

Many learning researchers have shifted their focus to align with constuctivist philosophy, focusing on how knowledge is //constructed// among learners, rather than how knowledge is //acquired.
