Sociocultural Perspective Analysis

While designing any lesson plan, it is important to keep in mind that what is being done in the classroom affects students when they get out into the real world. Thus educators must prepare students to not only be able to learn on their own but also to feel empowered to do so. Hence, it is important to take into consideration the sociocultural perspectives in order to ensure one is not simply domesticating students for a job. Further, when specifically teaching about comprehension, as with anything, it must not be assumed that students know how to complete a task. Rather educators must focus assignments around comprehensions skills as well as content in order to appropriately teach students the discourse of a particular subject.
