Activity Theory, an Introduction - http://osiris.sunderland.ac.uk/~cs0car/hci/3_con_at.htm
Activity Theory originated in the USSR, developed by Russian psychologists Vygotsky, Rubinshtein, Leontjev and Lurija. The theory is a philosophical framework that allows the study of different forms of human practice. The practice can be viewed as developmental processes where both individual and social levels are interlinked. |
