For my learning theorist, I choose Lev Vygotsky. His major work included the Zone of Proximal Development. (I will have to go into further details later, not in my post!) Initially, after choosing Vygotsky, his name was thrown out in all of our books. Apparently his Zone of Proximal Development is a major theory for learning development. For now, we are going through all types of learning theories. Is it me or do they all say the similar things? I guess I will soon 'filter' out the different types of theories and that will clarify my understandings better. I'll need to buy another book to start reading it.
