I will think in English. The day again was devoted to studying. In the first half of the day I basically was reading a psychological article written by X. Then I wrote a letter to him by email. It turned out the funny letter and of course I’m not expecting he will answer. So I want to explain how I’ve come to reading X.
I wrote an article for Wednesday’s speaking club in the group in where I used the expression “collaborative learning.” Then I started reading about the expression in Wikipedia and found out an interesting thing. Lev Vigotsky was mentioned as a main figure in this area and his ZPD (zone of proximal development) was laid it the foundation of the concept. I started searching for information and found this amazing article with remarkable pictures. It was really useful because I found out some new concepts as, for instance, “learned hopelessness” which I can apply for deeper understanding such phenomena as adult’s ignorance, passivity etc.
At the evening I dived into linguistics but before that I had rewritten one page of the WaitButWhy’s article. Linguistics leads me to cybernetics, robots, Elon Musk’s speeches about the future and so on.
I also found a great material about syntax and worked with it thoroughly.
