Understand theoretical approaches to play and learning

The video, filmed by Laser Learning, looks at practitioners interacting with children and some of the theories behind their practice. The video looks at Vgotsky’s zone of actual development compared to the zone of proximal development. It also looks at both Bandura’s and Bruner’s social learning theories. Watch the video and make notes. Can you see how the theories fit into what you have observed of children’s play?
