[Xmca-l] Re: Messages on XMCA

[Elizabeth Hadley Nickrenz]

Right now I am busiest with the start of my Introduction to Human Development course, looking back on rough spots from last year and trying to figure out how to fine-tune and improve them. Which reminds me, I had a question I wanted to ask you all. Does anyone have any examples of "mediation through artifacts" and/or  "practical activity" that they have found particularly helpful in illustrating these concepts for undergraduates? 

Best,

Bruce is asking about absence of email on xmca. I have sent a couple of
message, but of course do not
see them except later on the accumulated list.

What's new? There sure are a lot of you out there. Hit  reply and say
something about what you
are working on or wondering about.

For example, I have been fussing over vocabulary confusions in a course
that I visit in Colorado taught by
Kris G.  Learning, development, practice, zoped, social situation of
development, context...... how are they related in Vygotky's theor?? Simple
questions like that.

And you??
