Understanding Learning in Social Movements: A Theory of Collective Learning.

Kilgore, Deborah W.

International Journal of Lifelong Education, v18 n3 p191-202 May-Jun 1999

Outlines a theory of collective learning based on Vygotsky's Zone of Proximal Development and on New Social Movements theory. Argues that it is more appropriate than individual learning theories as it describes the relationship between individual and group development and it addresses social justice. (SK)
