So grateful this is here. The episode at the top, CHT vs CHAT, cleared up some longstanding confusion I had about the two theories. So helpful. I'm glad to have found this podcast!

Description

Let's try to better understand Vygotsky's ideas. These are audio versions of my YouTube videos found here: http://tiny.cc/3zayuz I'm no expert, so take my remarks with salt. Fortunately, most episodes in this podcast *DO* feature conversations with experts and deep researchers. Season 1 - Chats about CHT & Teaching; Season 2 - 5 Principles for Vygotskian Research; Season 3 - Answered Questions; Season 4 - Snippets & Excerpts; Season 5 - Notes on certain concepts; Season 6 - More short clips (from http://tiny.cc/vr3ns) Season 0 - Chats with friends (w/ emphasis on learning & development)
