Detailed Explanation
According to Lev Vygotsky's Socio-Cultural Theory, the 'Zone of Proximal Development' (ZPD) is defined as the gap between a child's 'actual developmental level determined by independent problem solving' and the 'potential developmental level determined through problem solving under adult guidance or in collaboration with more capable peers (MKO)'. In this intervening process, 'scaffolding' or temporary support is provided.
