Mike, Yes!!!!!
That's what occurred to me and Newman in the early 90s. In two ways ‹ one
that is coherent with Cazdan's performance before competence and with
Vygotsky's learning leading development. The other is (perhaps) more
profound, namely, that thought being completed in the word isn't restricted
to oneself as the completer but that others complete for us...like adults
for babbling babies in the endless little language games they play. I find
this kind of performatory conception of learning very exciting and
satisfying. Have I said enough for you to see whether you resonate with it?
