Bruner and Vygotsky both emphasised cognitive development as being closely linked to the brains construction of knowledge within a social context.
Evidence of Vygotsky theory can be seen in settings where adults are aware of the importance of assisting children, and challenging them during activities to further their understanding and learning. This is called the Zone of proximal development
