Annotation: Mainstream academic research has largely focused on developmentalism. My research suggests drawbacks to this approach, such as universality of education tied to chronological age, pupil’s passive role, culture insensitivity. This article proposes the sociocultural approach as a means to address teacher-student power distribution and create an education that is responsive to national needs and international demands.
Keywords: developmentalism, sociocultural theory, active learner, empowering education, creativity, flexibility, culturally responsive, sensitive education.
