Key Concepts — Quick Reference
This chapter
Language and thought - the three positions
| Piaget | Thought comes FIRST; language reflects existing cognition |
|---|---|
| Vygotsky | Language DRIVES thought; speech becomes inner thought |
| Sapir-Whorf | Linguistic relativity - your language shapes how you think |
| Egocentric speech | Piaget: immature talk; Vygotsky: tool that turns inward |
Difference, diversity and the fair classroom
| Sex vs Gender | Sex = biological; Gender = socially constructed roles |
|---|---|
| Individual differences | Variation in ability, pace, style, interest, personality |
| Sources | Heredity AND environment interacting (nature x nurture) |
| Inclusive practice | Diversity is a RESOURCE; teach equitably, not identically |
