[Xmca-l] Re: Mike Cole video interviews to be uploaded into XMCA discussion

    All the people I have ever worked with in math ed very much try to generate ‘good’ ‘crisis’ in both the math ed  and math classroom although perhaps not necessarily what Vygotsky had in mind. On the other hand, US school culture (and one might argue more broadly) is generally opposed to any sort of ‘crisis.' There is a sense in which we are uncomfortable with contradictions and try to ‘fix’ them. I have always wondered, by the way, if that is a human trait.

Imagination was given to man to compensate him for what he is not, and a sense of humor was provided to console him for what he is.

But it fits nicely, I think, doesn't it, with how I responded to your question on the social situation of development. Perhaps if Wendy can record her video-question we can continue this theme with Zoped?

>>> Hi Andy,
>>> I am writing to ask for your help. I noticed that there is a discussion on XMCA-I about different videos and wanted to upload my interviews with Mike that you kindly helped us to edit. For some reason, I seem to be temporarily out of XMCA access, and thus I am wondering if you can help and upload some of those links to XMCA into the current thread. You have them all, correct?
