Abstract
In this chapter, discussion of key socio-cultural aspects that affect learning will be considered from two complementary perspectives:
• Aspects that may help learning, especially if adequately exploited by the teacher. • Aspects that may hinder learning, especially if not adequately contrasted by the teacher.
Thirteen papers written by authors from ten countries were accepted for Theme 3. For presentation and discussion, the papers accepted for Theme 3 were divided into subgroups according to their main focus. We are aware that it is not possible to make distinct groups of papers as there are several overlaps in the classification, but in order to focus the group discussion, the main ideas from the papers are used to dictate the different time slots.
