Wassili Wassiljewitsch Davydow

Wassili Wassiljewitsch Dawydow ( Russian Василий Васильевич Давыдов ; born August 31, 1930 in Moscow ; † March 19, 1998 in Kogalym ) was a Russian psychologist who headed the Psychological Institute of the Academy of Pedagogical Sciences of the USSR (APWSU).

In 1958 he and Georgi Schtschedrowizki (1929–1994) founded a commission for the study of thinking and logic. He received his doctorate in 1971 and became a professor in 1973 and at APWSU in 1978. In the 1980s he was director of the Institute for General and Educational Psychology in Moscow . There he set up a laboratory. In 1983 he was removed from the institute and the laboratory closed. In 1991 he became vice-president of the subsequent Russian Academy of Education (RAO). From Elkonin's school pedagogical research , which began in Moscow at the end of the 1950s, the “theory of evolving teaching” (Elkonin-Davydov system) arose in collaboration with Vasily Dawydow.

In the GDR, Joachim Lompscher at APW follows his approach. He, too, was disciplined because his approach challenged authoritarian school pedagogy.
