From this perspective, the link between social and cultural
processes and individual development is a direct one.
I will try to get into this in more detail as soon as I can, but in
brief, I think LSV and those said to follow him are being simplified
beyond anything I can sign on to.
The links between the social and the individual are MEDIATED. MEDIATED
= IN-direct.
Social does not equal cultural
Social does not contrast with biological
The LSV approach is NOT a transmission view
etc.
I think there are important distinctions to be made and I really
appreciate the way that Paul keeps grounding his discussions in their
pragmatic implications for his classroom work. That grounding in practice
is essential. But the analytic distinctions and their mappings have me
running in circles at the moment.
