Lev Vygotsky was born in Orsha, a city in the western Russian Empire, on November 17, 1896. In 1917, he got a law degree from Moscow State University, where he studied sociology, linguistics, psychology, and philosophy, among other subjects.
The theory of language development proposed by Lev Vygotsky centered on social learning and the zone of proximal growth (ZPD). The ZPD is a degree of development attained when infants participate in social interactions with others; it represents the gap between a child’s learning potential and actual learning.
Piaget’s underestimation of the significance of social connections in language development was also proved by Vygotsky’s hypothesis. Piaget’s and Vygotsky’s ideas are often contrasted, and both have been effectively used in the area of education.
