Vygotsky and Creativity: A Cultural-historical Approach to Play, Meaning Making, and the Arts (Educational Psychology: Critical Pedagogical Perspectives)

This text presents a Vygotskian perspective on childrenâ€™s and adultsâ€™ symbolic engagement in play, multi-modal meaning making, and the arts. Psychologists, artists, and educators present research and practice in a variety of learning environments through the lens of Vygotskyâ€™s cultural historical theory. The connections between creative expression, learning, teaching, and development are situated in a theoretical framework that emphasizes the social origins of individual development and the arts. The authors share a view of learning as an imaginative process rooted in our common need to communicate and transform individual experience through the cultural lifelines of the arts.
