Sociocultural Theories Of Learning And Motivation - Looking Back, Looking Forward

A volume in Research on Sociocultural Influences on Motivation and Learning
Series Editor: Dennis M. McInerney, The Hong Kong Institute of Education
It is now nearly thirty years since sociocultural theories of learning created great
excitement and debate amongst those concerned with learning in diverse contexts.
Since that time significant advances have been made in sociocultural theory and
research. Various sociocultural approaches to the understanding of learning (for
example, sociocultural psychology, sociocultural discourse, cultural historical activity theory) have been developed
and consolidated and new challenges are currently being addressed. In the motivational arena sociocultural
approaches deriving from Vygotsky have only begun to emerge relatively recently. In this Volume we examine
and evaluate the achievements of past sociocultural theory and research, and consider the future directions of
sociocultural theory and research in the domains of learning and motivation.
