LANGUAGE AS A MEDIATING TOOL
3 stages in the transformation of material forms of activity to mental forms of activity (Talyzina)
material action stage
students involved in activities with real objects associated with the concepts being developed
external speech stage
students formulate verbally what they carried out in practice
mental action stage
speech is reduces and automated, becoming inaccessible to self-observation
in an instructional studies conducted by Talyzina, the second stage (external speech stage) was omitted
they concluded that the omission of the external speech stage inhibited substantially the transformation of the material activity into a mental one
this is because verbalization helps the process for an action to be translated into conceptual form
