ReplyDeleteI prefer Vygotsky's social interaction theory. When learners start learning foreign languages, cooperative learning is very important in that it can help them to improve their language skills without making them embarrased.

We can teach grammar by ZPD principle. For example, at first, teachers teach regular past tense verbs to students and SS will get the rule. Then SS might apply the rule to all the verbs that they knew, like add '-ed' to the verbs, such as goed. In this stage, T will also let them know the exceptional rule for irregular past tense verbs and help SS to understand the exception and apply the different rule for certain verb. Then SS may be confused at first, but as time goes by and through try and errors, they finally got it and now, the irregular past tense verb becomes SS' knowledge.

ReplyDelete1. What are the 5 key ideas about Scio-cultural theory?
5 key ideas about Scio-cultural theory are mediation and mediated learning, regulation, scaffolding and the zone of proximal development, microgenesis, private and inner speech and activity theory
2. What does scaffolding mean?
Please list up about the funtions of the scaffolded help.
1.recruiting interest in the task
2.simplifying the task
3.maintaining pursuit of the goal, marking critical features and discrepancies
between what has been
4.produced and the ideal solution,
5.controlling frustration during problem solving,
6.demonstrating an idealized version of the act to be performed.
3. What are Phylogenesis and ontogenesis in microgenesis?
Phylogenes is about applying to the learning that the human race has passed through over successive generations
ontogenesis is to the learning that the individual human infant passes through in the course of its early development.

I think other-regulation is very good way to teache student language. because many studnets make same mistakes when they learn language, some of students who is high level can teach other student by group work.
therefore, i think we have to make many a chence to help studnet do other-regulation in the classroom.

ReplyDelete1. Scio-cultural : of, pertaining to, or signifying the combination or interaction of social and cultural elements.
2. scaffolding :Scaffolding is a temporary structure used to support people and material in the construction or repair of buildings and other large structures. It is usually a modular system of metal pipes or tubes, although it can be from other materials. Bamboo is frequently used in Southeast Asia
3.proximal: Nearest; proximate. Anatomy Nearer to a point of reference such as an origin, a point of attachment, or the midline of the body: the proximal end of a bone.
4.microgenesis : (biology, anatomy, medicine) The condition of a body part which has developed abnormally small.
(social sciences technical jargon) The development, in discrete but generally imperceptible (seemingly continuous) increments, by the human body or brain, of thoughts, motions, or actions.
5.ontogenesis : the arising or development of an individual organism.
6.Phylogenesis : The evolutionary development and diversification of a species or group of organisms, or of a particular feature of an organism. Compare with ontogenesis.
7.microgenesis(biology, anatomy, medicine) The condition of a body part which has developed abnormally small.
(social sciences technical jargon) The development, in discrete but generally imperceptible (seemingly continuous) increments, by the human body or brain, of thoughts, motions, or actions

2. Scaffolding is the process of supportive dialogue which directs the attention of the learner to key features of the environment, and which prompts then through succesive steps of a problem.
3. Psylogenesis is the learning that the human race has passed through over successive generations, and ontogenesis is the learning that the individual human infant passes through in the course of its early development.
*Discussion Question
I prefer Vygotsky's theory, especially I agreed with his theory about scaffoling in socio-cultural theory. Cooperative activity can be helpful for improving language skill, because learners can be acquired language naturally throuth the cooperative activity. In cooperative activity, output of a learners can be input to the other learners. Therefore, interaction between learners can help learners not only to carry out the activity but also to influence their language.
* Summarizer
ReplyDeleteVygotsky proposed Socio-cultural theory including five key ideas; mediation, scaffolding, ZPD and inne speech, etc. First, he consided learning as mediated process and language as a tool for thought. Also, for successful learning a shift from inter-mental activity to intra-mental actiity and to regulte own perfomance on similar situations are important. Especially, learners can acquire how to use the language appropriately through cooperative activity. If a learner become advenced, inner speech of the learner can be developed as well and finally the learner can develop inner speech as a tool of thought. That is, in learning the language, it is important to regulate own thought using language as a tool and improve language skill by doing cooperative activity and scaffolding.
