It’s important to explain the differences between theories and how we put them into practice, how I understand them and how my partners understand them too. At the first time, the Vygotsky theory explains the concept of the ZPD. This is the area between the independence performance and assisted performance, therefore we can divide two types of activities: share and individual activities, which have an important role in the scaffolding process of the students.

What is scaffolding? Is the same as a ‘temporary structure used to support people and material in the [|construction]  or [|repair]  of [|buildings]  and other large structures’, is the same as building a new knowledge and development in the children’s mind.

At the same time, it’s important to know the relations between thought and language, because it's necessary to understand intellectual development. Language is basic to form thought and determine personality features. For Vygotsky, there are four different types of language in order to acquisition: public language, private and inner speech, verbal thought for example.

In the other hand, the function of mediators is also important, because their role is to support the cognitive development of our students. A mediator is something that helps us to make children learn easier, but it’s not the same to make students more dependent. It’s a basic tool that teachers use in different situations (activities).

Gardner theory, for example explains the different parts of intelligence: interpersonal, intrapersonal, bodily-kinesthetic, musical, logical-mathematical, linguistic, and special intelligence.
