He proposed a theory of the development of higher cognitive functions in children that saw the emergence of their reasoning as emerging through practical activity in a social environment. Vygotsky also posited a concept of the Zone of Proximal Development, often understood to refer to how the acquisition of new knowledge depends on previous learning and the availability of instruction.
