Question

Daliah was at a diner with her 3-year-old son. When he was done with his lunch, he wanted to take his tray to the trash can. Because Daliah wasn't sure he would be able to complete that task without dropping everything, she helped him hold one side of his tray. According to Lev Vygotsky, in which of the following concepts did Daliah just engage?
a) private speech
b) the zone of proximal development
c) ego integrity
d) scaffolding

Answer 1

Answer:

B: The zone of proximal development

Explanation:

This term was given by Vygotsky and it refers to the inability of a learner to complete the task without any guidance or help. in this process, there is a relationship between performance a task independently versus with guidance.

for example:

Suppose there is a student to understand the philosophy when the professor teaches in the class but not able to do the task ownself. the professor works with the student to help him to learn the philosophy approaches and suggest him to ask the question himself after reading alone.
