Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Vygotsky's theory focuses on the role of culture in cognitive development, the concept of zone of proximal development (ZPD), and the idea that cognitive development involves a shift from intermental processes (transactions between people) to intramental processes (thinking that occurs within an individual). Therefore, Genevieve should study culture, ZPD, and movement from intermental to the intramental before the end of the week. None of the other options relate to Vygotsky's theory.
