In chapter 9 ( to be continued in chapter 10), Mike describes a series of
more active interventions in restructuring natural environments so as to
be able to observe, support, and evaluate learning according to principles
of cultural-historical psychology. The first attempt, while providing
evidence of the constant mutability of activities, always becoming
something different in each setting, so that comparison across examples
was elusive, did not succeed to providing an analysis of tasks and
leanring. The second attempt, using Question-Answer-Reading did provide
aggregating comparative data that lead to coherent analyses of individuals
and reading learning processes, as well as provided a successful
educational intervention.
What made for greater success in the second instance?
