At one level constructivism would always need to be a
co-constructivism. I am very leary of a constructivism that is
viewed solely as something related to oneself. I personally
like the term dialectical constructivism which for me implies a
continual restructuring and tranformation of both the individual
and the social. Valsiner in my opinion puts Vygotsky in the
"traditional camp" to a much larger degree that he actually was.

It is an chapter in an upcoming book in which a version is on my

The reference was to Piaget and the universal way in which he
described the child developing.
