Winner! of the 2014 Steve Witte Award from the American Educational Research Association (AERA) Writing and Literacies SIG
In this book Peter Smagorinsky reconsiders his many publications employing Vygotsky’s theory of culturally-mediated human development and applies them, through a unified and coherent series of chapters, to literacy research. This exploration takes previously-published work and incorporates it into a new and sustained argument regarding the application of Vygotsky’s ideas to current questions regarding the nature of literacy and how to investigate it as a cultural phenomenon that contributes to human growth in social context.
To conduct this inquiry, Smagorinsky first provides an overview that contextualizes Vygotsky both in his own time and in efforts to extrapolate from his Soviet origins to the 21st Century world. This consideration includes attention to the current context for literacy studies. He then reviews current conceptions of literacy in the realms of reading, writing, and additional tool use, grounding each in a Vygotskian perspective.
The book’s final chapters take a critical look at both research method and the writing of research reports, taking into account both research and research reports as social constructions based in disciplinary practices. On the whole, this volume makes an important contribution to Vygotskian studies and literacy research through the author’s careful alignment between theory and practice.

Recenzii
“Peter Smagorinky’s culminating book, Vygotsky and Literacy Research: A Methodological Framework, was chosen by the committee because in it Dr. Smagorinsky helps move his readers beyond the ZPD in relation to Vygotsky’s theories to important issues that many of us are thinking and talking about now. He highlights the role of "emotion" (the affective aspect that is often left behind in our discussion about learning as well as other ideas Vygotsky explored). The committee chose him for this book and for his lifetime contributions as a researcher in English Education. His ability to translate research and theory into support for teachers is a very important contribution to English education.”—National Council of Teachers of English, on the 2013 David H. Russell Award winner
