How do males from the Dioula culture of the Ivory Coast learn to weave? How does your answer illustrate Vygotsky's theory?
What will be an ideal response?
Answer: Boys in this culture learn to weave by starting with simple patterns and getting feedback on their work from their fathers. They continue to work on more intricate patterns and eventually need less help (scaffolding). This is an important skill to learn because the fabrics can be sold. The types of skills that are learned differ depending on the particular culture.
