✓ Correct! Well done.
✗ Not quite — the correct answer is highlighted above.
Detailed Explanation
Understanding Vygotsky's Theory
In Lev Vygotsky's socio-cultural theory, the Zone of Proximal Development (ZPD) represents the gap between what a child can do independently and what they can achieve with guidance from an adult or More Knowledgeable Other (MKO).
- Scaffolding: The temporary, flexible support given during this learning process.
- Gradual Removal: As the child becomes proficient in the task, this support is progressively withdrawn.
Therefore, option (b) accurately reflects the core principles of ZPD and scaffolding in child development.
