The mediating role of culture in the learning of mathematics in the perspective of Vygotsky
Main Article Content
Abstract
In this paper the author analyses the mediating role of culture in the learning of mathematics from Vygotsk's perspective. The first section focuses on how he conciliated the idea of cultural mediation with the idea of constructivism. The second focus on his conceptualisation of how cultural mediation operates in contexts of school leaming. Finally, the last section questions Vygotsky's ideas and expands his theory by confronting his notion of “cultural mediation” with recent theorisation in terms of “cognitive pluralism”.
