• Explaining the dialogic processes of teaching and learning: The value and potential of sociocultural theory (2012, background): “As Säljö (2009) has put it, a major interest from a sociocultural perspective is in how human skills are appropriated by individuals.”
• The Social Brain, Language, and Goal-Directed Collective Thinking: A Social Conception of Cognition and Its Implications for Understanding How We Think, Teach, and Learn (2013, background): “In an earlier issue of this journal, Säljö (2009) suggested that “the point of a theory does not lie in its correspondence with the world (which would be the realist perspective) but rather in its explanatory power in relation to a set of issues” (p. 204).”
