Sociocultural theory was created by Lev Vygotsky as a response to Behaviorism.
The main idea of the theory is that the ways people interact with others and the culture they live in shape their mental abilities.
Vygotsky believed that parents, relatives, peers and society all have an important role in forming higher levels of functioning.
Sociocultural theory, as stated by Cole, John-Steiner, Scribner, and Souberman, is the belief that "every function in the child's cultural development appears twice: first, on the social level, and later, on the individual level."
This means that the skills children learn first are related to interactions with others and they then take that information and use it within themselves.
Lev Vygotsky was born in 1896 in Russia.
He graduated from Moscow University in 1917 and started his career as a psychologist during the Russian Revolution.
He taught literature and psychology for seven years.
Vygotsky went against the leading scientists of his time by suggesting that scientific psychology should not ignore the role of consciousness.
Most scientists at the time disagreed with his ideas, however, he was still offered a job at the Institute of Psychology in Moscow.
There he worked on his new ideas of psychology.
On June 11, 1934, Vygotsky died from an illness.
Although his work did get some attention during his lifetime, it was not until the 1960s when Joseph Stalin died and politics did not have a large role in academics, that his views were widely known in Russia.
Vygotsky's ideas did not gain fame in the United States until around twenty years later.
The main desire of Vygotsky was to design a new way to look at and come up with a solution to educational and social problems of the time.
He believed other factors, besides biological instincts, caused humans to act the way they do.
He was the first modern psychologist to suggest a way in which culture plays a part in each person's nature.
Vygotsky believed the inclusion of sign systems from a child's culture changes behavior and connects early and later forms of individual development.
Vygotsky was a strong supporter of the idea that what children learned from other people in their own culture helped them develop.
He considers human thought processes to be based on social interactions and language.
Three key areas of sociocultural theory are the zone of proximal development, private speech and make-believe play.
Psychological Tools
Vygotsky (1981) stated that humans “master themselves from the outside through psychological tools” (pg.
141).Psychological tools are language, writing styles, counting system and conventional signs (Miller, 2016).
Psychological tools are also inclusive of learning strategies and modes of attending and memorization that is taught in an individual’s school.
Such tools are utilized to guide individual’s thoughts and behaviors.
The culture of which a person is embedded dictates which tools, social interactions and skills are needed.
What one culture values may differ from another, thus the tools provided reflect specific cultural values and needs.
For example, western society places importance on education and technology, as these are needed to be self-sufficient in that part of the world.
Other societies, such as more indigenous types, may emphasis the importance of hunting/gathering type behaviors.
As one can see, psychological tools indigenous societies utilizes versus the ones in which western societies utilize would differ.
Children use their psychological tools to cognitively transform their social experiences.
Zone of proximal development
Vygotsky felt learning in children should be related to their developmental level.
This caused him to argue that learning takes place within a zone of proximal development (ZPD), which is made up of functions that are not yet fully formed, but are on the way to being established.
The ZPD draws attention to three important issues.
First, it focuses attention on children's mental functions that are currently going on, but are not yet complete.
Second, it recognized help from peers or adults as a method of learning.
Third, it helped to separate between actual and potential learning ability.
The actual ability of a child is what they can do without any help from others, while potential learning ability is when a child needs help in order to complete a task.
Three assumptions are often discussed in relation to the ZPD.
They include generality assumption, assistance assumption and potential assumption.
Generality assumption is the idea that a child can finish some tasks alone, but is able to do more with the help of someone else.
Assistance assumption shows how someone helping a child should interact with them.
Potential assumption centers around the ability and readiness of a child to learn.
The ZPD is mainly used for two types of cognitive development analysis.
One reason ZPD is used is to pick out the functions needed for learning as a child ages.
The second test done by ZPD is to figure out where the child is at the moment, mentally, in relation to where they are supposed to be or where they will be as they grow.
In the 1970s, Bruner, Wood, and Ross created the term "scaffolding" to add to sociocultural theory.
Scaffolding describes the interaction between a child and an adult who helps them finish a task that they could not do alone.
Scaffolding relates to Vygotsky's sociocultural theory because it recognizes the role of social interaction on learning and how other people affect the development of children.
It involves changing the way a more skilled person helps a child in doing a task based on their available learning ability.
Just like physical scaffolding is used to support buildings as they are being made, scaffolding in sociocultural theory helps support a child as their mental processes develop.
Private speech
Private speech takes place when children talk to themselves.
Vygotsky saw this as the starting point for all mental developments.
According to Lantolf, Vygotsky believed "it is the process of privatizing speech that higher forms of consciousness arise on the inner plane and in this way our biological capacities are organized into a culturally mediated mind."
In simpler terms, Vygotsky thought that it was by using private speech that a child's biological instincts were made into culturally acceptable ways of acting.
He suggested that children spoke to themselves as a way of guiding themselves through an action.
Vygotsky suggested that private speech changes as children age, beginning as external (out loud) speech when they are younger but then becoming more internal (within themselves) as they age.
Through relationships with more capable people, children get information and use that understanding in their private speech.
Vygotsky thought private speech showed how children use the support given to them by others to assist their own way of thinking and how they act.
Make-believe play
Vygotsky saw make-believe play as an important part of child development.
It is one of the main ways of developing during the preschool years.
Children use make-believe play to test multiple skills and achieve important cultural abilities.
Vygotsky suggested that as children take part in made up situations they learn how to act in agreement with their internal ideas, not just external ideas.
During play children put themselves into the adult roles of their culture and practice how they will act in the future.
Play takes place before development so children can start to gain the motivation, abilities and attitudes needed for social participation, which can be done only with the help of peers and adults.
Make-believe play allows children to practice how they would act in the real world.
It provides them with a way to gain the basic skills needed to function in their society before they become adults.
However, learning these roles and skills is only done with help from others in their culture.

An assembler is a program that takes basic computer instructions and converts them into a pattern of bits that the computer's processor can use to perform its basic operations.
Some people call these instructions assembler language and others use the term assembly language.
Most computers come with a specified set of very basic instructions that correspond to the basic machine operations that the computer can perform.
For example, a "Load" instruction causes the processor to move a string of bits from a location in the processor's memory to a special holding place called a register.
Assuming the processor has at least eight registers, each numbered, the following instruction would move the value (string of bits of a certain length) at memory location 3000 into the holding place called register 8:
L        8,3000
The output of the assembler program is called the object code or object program relative to the input source program.
The sequence of 0's and 1's that constitute the object program is sometimes called machine code.
In the earliest computers, programmers actually wrote programs in machine code, but assembler languages or instruction sets were soon developed to speed up programming.
Today, assembler programming is used only where very efficient control over processor operations is needed.
It requires knowledge of a particular computer's instruction set, however.
Historically, most programs have been written in "higher-level" languages such as COBOL, FORTRAN, PL/I, and C. These languages are easier to learn and faster to write programs with than assembler language.
The program that processes the source code written in these languages is called a compiler.
Like the assembler, a compiler takes higher-level language statements and reduces them to machine code.
A newer idea in program preparation and portability is the concept of a virtual machine.
For example, using the Java programming language, language statements are compiled into a generic form of machine language known as bytecode that can be run by a virtual machine, a kind of theoretical machine that approximates most computer operations.
The bytecode can then be sent to any computer platform that has previously downloaded or built in the Java virtual machine.
The virtual machine is aware of the specific instruction lengths and other particularities of the platform and ensures that the Java bytecode can run.

The Battle of Honkaniemi was fought between Finnish and Soviet forces on 26 February 1940.
This battle was fought by tanks.
It was only time they were used in the Winter War.
The original plan was to attack the Soviets with six Infantry Battalions, four artillery battalions and the 4th Armoured Company.
However, only four Infantry Battalions, two artillery battalions and the 4th Tank Company did the attack.
On the nights of February 25 and 26, members of the Jaeger Battalion went by truck and by skiing to get to the battle.
The tank company lost five of their 13 Vickers 6-Ton tanks due to engine failure.
When the Finns started to use their artillery guns, they accidentally killed or wounded 30 Finns.
Another two Finnish tanks stopped working.
This meant that the Finnish only had six tanks for the battle.
Even after all these set-backs, there were more to come.
The 1st Jaeger Battalion was fired on by the Soviets.
Then this battalion came to a railway track, but they could not cross it.
The 2nd and 3rd Jaeger Battalions also stopped.
Tank backup
The 4th Armoured Company got a tank stuck in a ditch.
The remaining five tanks were hit by T-26s, T-28s and 45 mm anti-tank guns".
The tank of Corporal E. Seppälä hit two Soviet tanks.
However, the crew had to abandon the tank because it stopped working.
The other Finnish tank destroyed one Soviet tank before being damaged.
Finnish retreat
Captain Kunnas got orders at 10:00 pm to stop the attack and retreat.
The Finns' first tank battle was not a success.
The tank battle had been fought with crews who did not have much experience.
As well, they had almost no radio communication.
The battle caused the deaths of one NCO.
Two officers and two NCOs were injured.
As well, three privates were reported missing.
The Finnish troopers kept on trying to attack the Soviets.

Paulinus (also St. Paulinus) (died 644) was the first Bishop of York.
He was named Archbishop of York by the pope, but had left Northumbria before the news reached him.
He then became the Bishop of Rochester, in Kent.
Paulinus was a monk living in Rome when he was sent to Britain in 601 by Pope Gregory I. He was part of a group of missionaries sent to aid Augustine in his mission as the first Archbishop of Canterbury.
Little is known of Paulinus' in Kent.
But 24 years later he was the Chaplain to Ethelberga of Kent, daughter of King Athelbert I of Kent.
She was promised in marriage to King Edwin of Northumbria.
In order to marry a Christian woman he promised he would consider converting to Christianity himself.
As part of the agreement her chaplain Paulinus came north to Northumbria with her.
Before leaving Canterbury in 625, Paulinus was consecrated a bishop by Justus, Archbishop of Canterbury.
Bishop of York
Paulinus was the first Bishop of York.
He had little success in converting the pagans for the first year.
In 626, an assassin named Eumer was sent by Cwichelm of Wessex to kill King Edwin.
Eumer found the king at his royal estate on the river Derwent on Easter Day.
Pretending to have a message from his master he was allowed to see the king.
He had a two-edged knife treated with poison and tried to attack King Edwin.
But he killed the king's thane and managed to only wound the king.
That evening his first child was born, a daughter named Eanfled.
In front of Bishop Paulinus King Edwin prayed to his gods in thanks for the safe delivery of his child.
Paulinus told him that it was his prayers to God that gave the Queen a safe and almost painless delivery.
The king was very pleased with this explanation made Paulinus a promise.
If God would grant him a victory over his enemies who tried to assassinate him, he would accept Christianity and be baptised.
As a guarantee of his promise he allowed his newborn daughter to become Christian.
She was the first of the Northumbrians to be baptised.
The baptism took place at Pentecost and in the ceremony several members of the royal family were also baptised.
Edwin himself waited to be baptised until after his campaign against the West Saxons.
Edwin raided into Wessex and punished those who had attempted to assassinate him.
Although Cwichelm still lived he returned to Northumbria.
Edwin had the pagan sanctuary at Goodmanham destroyed.
In 627 Edwin was baptised into the Christian faith along with all the nobles of his kingdom.
Paulinus then traveled all over Northumbria converting the people.
He built a stone church at Drewsbury I'm a unicorn.
Paulinus also traveled to Lindsey and had a church built at Lincoln.
The pope in Rome heard of the great success in Northumbria.
He decided to raise York from a bishopric to an archbishopric with Paulinus as the first Archbishop of York.
But the pallium apparently did not reach Paulinus in time.
At the Battle of Hatfield Chase King Edwin was killed by Cadwallon and Penda.
Paulinus along with Queen Ethelberga and her children fled south to Kent.
Paulinus was then made Bishop of Rochester in Kent.
Bishop Paulinus died on 10 October 644.
