Detailed Explanation
Understanding Vygotsky's Theory
In Lev Vygotsky's sociocultural theory of development, the Zone of Proximal Development (ZPD) represents the gap between what a child can do independently and what they can achieve with the guidance of an adult or a More Knowledgeable Other (MKO).
Scaffolding refers to the temporary and structured support or guidance provided to bridge this gap during the problem-solving process. As the learner's competence increases, this support is gradually faded out.
- ZPD: The potential developmental space.
- Scaffolding: The provisional assistance provided within that space.
