Focusing on Vygotskian theory's relevance to Science Education, this book delves into key concepts like the Zone of Proximal Development, play, and imagination. Each chapter examines these constructs in specific educational contexts, such as early childhood, primary, and secondary education, as well as higher education and informal learning. By applying Vygotskian principles comprehensively across various science education settings, it offers valuable insights for students, educators, and researchers, making a significant contribution to both Vygotskian theory and STEM education.
