Welcome!

Welcome to “Sociocultural Theories for Teaching and Learning,” a practitioner-oriented blog sponsored by the International Education and Lifelong Learning Institute at the University of St Andrews. Created and managed by Dr. Xuan Minh Ngo, this platform bridges the gap between sociocultural theories and real-world classroom practices. Whether you are a graduate student, a pre-service teacher, an in-service educator, or simply keen on sociocultural theories, this blog offers accessible insights into how sociocultural theories can inform and shape educational practices. Dive into our latest posts, explore theory applications through our “Concepts & Implications,” stay updated with “Research Digest,” and catch up on “News & Events” impacting our field. We invite you to contribute, collaborate, and spread the word as we navigate the complex yet fascinating world of sociocultural theories together. Thank you for visiting, and we hope you find inspiration and practical guidance in our shared journey towards better teaching and learning.
