This comprehensive book delves into the most relevant aspects of Vygotskian theory for Science Education, encompassing the Zone of Proximal Development (ZPD), concept development, play, and imagination. While these and other Vygotskian constructs hold significance in both research and practice across various forms of Science Education, this book specifically emphasizes one or two key concepts in each context. Thus, play and imagination are explored in great detail in the chapter on science in early childhood learning, the ZPD is examined in depth in the primary school science chapter, and concept development is explored in the secondary-level chapter. Chapters on higher education science learning and teaching, science teacher education, informal science learning, science education research, and the scientific endeavor itself draw upon those aspects of Vygotskian theory that are most closely related. This book makes a substantial contribution to Vygotskian theory, offering a broad and comprehensive application to the field of science and STEM education.
Designed for students and academics in science and STEM education, as well as Vygotsky scholars and those engaged in analyzing pedagogic practices within and beyond science and STEM education, this book offers valuable insights and perspectives.
