Hello,
In addition to Carol Lee's work, see the following that falls in the realm
of culturally relevant pedagogy, most of which is grounded in sociocultural
theory. The
challenges to constructivism represented go beyond "rigorous help...on how
the balance
between didactic and active learning should be struck" to interject cultural
ways
of knowing, interacting, using language, etc. very explicitly into
conceptions of "higher-level
ways of organizing and understanding":
