Writing Homework Help

The peer reviewed research article will need to have some relationship to the topic of the week.
Point of Clarification using Vygotsky: It does not need to be a specific paper about how
Vygotsky and the Principles of Learning are related – that is your job. It should, however, be an
article that has a research question that reviews the Zone of Proximal Development and its
impact on learning.

You will need to be creative in your key word search as some authors may
use scaffolding instead of ZPD. THE ARTICLE MUST BE FROM A PEER REVIEWED ARTICLE!!! Download the article and save it as a .pdf file that can be uploaded so it can be uploaded with the assignment. It must be a .pdf document NOT a link to the library

-For each topic, you will write one two-page paper (full pages using APA) describing
the following information. Each topic is outline below – you should answer all four
areas listed using your article, the course materials listed, and your own words.

a. Research Article: Application of Vygotsky

i. Describe how the research article addresses the selected topic. For
example, how does this paper describe Vygotsky’s work in relation to
the principles of learning?

ii. Describe how the research article addresses the information located in
the course materials. For the Vygotsky paper, is there any information
found in the article that relates to the information presented in Brown
et al.’s Chapters 1-3?

iii. What conclusions can you make about the results of the paper?
iv. How can you apply this knowledge to your own teaching
situation/profession? If you cannot you must state why this
information cannot be applied to your area given the general directions
of the assignment. As always, be concise and specific, but do not leave
the reader without a clear understanding of your main points. (NOTE I WORK IN THE FIELD OF APPLIED BEHAVIOR ANALYSIS. THE ZPD CAN BE APPLIED TO SHAPING BEHAVIOR AND TEACHING SKILLS IN SMALL STEPS [DISCRETE TRIAL TEACHING])
