Activity Theory

Activity Theory is a framework that helps us understand how people engage in various activities and the tools they use within their social contexts. It emphasizes that human actions are not isolated; instead, they are shaped by interactions with others, cultural norms, and the environment. Essentially, it looks at how individuals and groups achieve goals through shared activities, highlighting the importance of context and collaboration. By examining these elements, we can better understand learning, communication, and development in diverse settings, such as education, workplaces, and communities.
