What is the Zone of Proximal Development?
A
ZPD is the area where the child could not achieve with adult guidance or by working with “a more fully developed child
B
ZPD is the area between the child’s current performance and the level of performance that the child could not achieve with adult guidance or by working with “a more fully developed child”
C
ZPD is the area where the child could achieve with adult guidance or by working with “a more fully developed child
D
ZPD is the area between the child’s current performance (the problems the child can solve independently without any support) and the level of performance that the child could achieve with adult guidance or by working with “a more fully developed child”
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Hence, we can conclude that the Zone of proximal development is the area between a child’s current level of independent performance and the level of performance that the child could achieve with the help of adults and more skilled peers.

Detailed explanation-2: -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-3: -An example of the zone of proximal development is guiding a child through the steps of subtraction. Once the child masters these steps, he or she can work on subtraction independently. The zone of proximal development is the gap between the actual level of development and the level of potential development.

Detailed explanation-4: -This term was developed by Vygotsky as part of his theory on child development. The zone has a lower limit: things that are difficult but possible for a child to learn alone, and an upper limit: things that a child cannot yet learn, even with assistance from an adult.

Detailed explanation-5: -The Zone of proximal development is the level of development Out of the zone of where the student is presently functioning. Out of the zone of where the student is presently functioning.
