[Xmca-l] Re: Play and symbolic thought --



I am remembering the discussion of playworlds and the zo-ped as helping the
adults *grow up* within socratic dialogues with children.
An article was referenced which I am would like to read that was referenced
in the article:

Cheyne, J. A and Tarulli, D (1999) Dialogue ,difference, and voice in the
zone of proximal development. Theory and Psychology, 9, 5-28.

If it is possible to send a cop.y I would appreciate this..

The exploration of desire and motivation and the adult being transformed
[and developing] within the intersubjective engagement [and enactment] in
the zo-ped is what I find fascinating. This depth of *care and concern* for
the child's *voice* moving from the magisterial TO the socratic voice seems
a radical [going to the root] of the zo-ped.
Thanks,
Larry
