Detailed Explanation
Understanding Vygotsky's Theory
According to Lev Vygotsky, a child's cognitive development occurs through social interaction, culture, and language. The Zone of Proximal Development (ZPD) is the gap between the actual developmental level (what a child can do independently) and the potential developmental level (what a child can do with the help of an MKO).
Role of Scaffolding
In this process, Scaffolding refers to the temporary, sensitive, and flexible support or guidance provided by a skilled adult or peer, which is gradually withdrawn as the child achieves independence.
- ZPD: The distance between independent and guided problem-solving.
- Scaffolding: The temporary adjustable support given during the learning process.
