[Xmca-l] Re: Sociocritical theory a la Kris G

[Luisa Aires]

Dear Mike and ALL

Thank you for sharing Kris´ thoughts about culture, education, literacy,
development...
This text evokes me the foundations of xmca - to deconstruct the origins of
the historical-cultural theory and expand it with scientific, social,
cultural, historical contemporary thoughts and movements.

Kris shares with us a huge and rich lecture, a pedagogical framework that
could mediate very rich xmca discussions. Let me mention some powerful
constructs that we could discuss:
- Third space
- Nondominant communities
- ZPD
- Zo –ped (a “wonderful” construct)
- Literacy - sociocritical literacy
- Grounding theoretical concepts
- Sincretic testimonios
- Reframing learning, teaching, education, development

What do you think?

All the best,
Luísa
