‡ Both Piaget and Vygotsky view

cognitive development as a stage
theory involving active interaction
between the individual and their
environment.
‡Vygotsky elaborates on Piaget in several
areas. Vygotsky believes that learning is
more socially constructed and contextual
than Piaget and that parental and teacher
support in preparing tasks and experiences
slightly beyond what a student would do on
his own, called scaffolding, contribute to
increased student competence.

‡Vygotsky also stressed the importance of

the relationship between language and
thought in improving student thinking, and
makes a case for developing strong
language skills

‡ Progression of Development

‡ Piaget believed that development

proceeds from the individual to the
social world. Egocentric speech
suggests that the child is self-centered
and unable to consider the point-of-
view of others. Piaget also maintains
that development precedes learning.
‡ Vygotsky believed that development
begins at the social level and moves
towards individual internalization.
Egocentric speech is seen as a transition
between the child's learning language in a
social communicative context, and
attempting to internalize it as "private" or
"inner speech" (i.e., thoughts). For
Vygotsky, learning precedes development.

‡ Both agree that development may be

initiated by cognitive conflict.
‡ Like Piaget, Vygotsky believed that
children's egocentric speech was an
important part of their cognitive
development. The two differed in how they
viewed the purpose of egocentric speech.
