'''Distributed cognition''' "''focusing beyond the boundaries of the individual''"
(DCog) is a theory of [[psychology]] developed in the 1985 by [[Edwin Hutchins]]. Using insights from [[sociology]], [[cognitive science]], and the psychology of [[Vygotsky]] (cf [[activity theory]]) it emphasizes the social aspects of cognition. It is a framework (not a method) that involves the co-ordination between individuals and artifacts. It is comprised of two key components:
1) the representations that information is held in and transformed across
2) the process by which representations are co-ordinated with each other.
