Taking into account the increasing number of psychological and pedagogical scholarship which uses the concepts of meaning and sense and the wide dispersion of these terms, our goal is to introduce such concepts in Historic-Cultural Psychology, from Vygotsky's and Leontiev's works. The concept of meaning appears in the work of Vygotsky, in Thought and Word, which examines the relationship between thought and language. Leontiev appropriates this concept and calls it as personal sense. He relates it with consciousness and human activity. Our second goal is, therefore, to analyze theoretically the formation of consciousness and its relationship to educational processes, focusing on the study activity. As a result, we claim that for the school learning to happen, the study actions of the students must have a personal sense, which requires the teacher to structure the study activity so that objects to be learned have structural place in the activity of the students.
