McInerney, The Hong Kong Institute of EducationIt is now nearly thirty years since sociocultural theories of learning created greatexcitement and debate amongst those concerned with learning in diverse contexts.Since that time significant advances have been made in sociocultural theory andresearch. Various sociocultural approaches to the understanding of learning (forexample, sociocultural psychology, sociocultural discourse, cultural historical activity theory) have been developedand consolidated and new challenges are currently being addressed. In the motivational arena socioculturalapproaches deriving from Vygotsky have only begun to emerge relatively recently.
