Detailed explanation-1: -The Zone of Proximal Development (ZPD) was a key construct in Lev Vygotsky’s theory of learning and development. The Zone of Proximal Development is defined as the space between what a learner can do without assistance and what a learner can do with adult guidance or in collaboration with more capable peers.
Detailed explanation-2: -The ZPD (zone of proximal development) is the area of mastery just above where the child is right now. So think of the very next step the child could reach with just a little bit of help and practice. The scaffolding is the support you give. Figuring out the ZPD depends on the task.
Detailed explanation-3: -Some examples of ZPD applications in the classroom: A teacher in an experimental psychology course might initially provide scaffolding for students by coaching them through their experiments. Next, the teacher slowly removes the scaffolding by only providing brief descriptions of how to proceed.
Detailed explanation-4: -The concept of zone of proximal development (ZPD) was developed by Lev Semenovich Vygotsky during the late 1920s and elaborated progressively until his death in 1934.
