(Psikoloji, Ruhbilim) The zone of proximal development, often abbreviated ZPD, is the difference between what a learner can do without help and what he or she can do with help. It is a concept developed by Soviet psychologist and social constructivist Lev Vygotsky (1896 – 1934)
area in which a student can successfully perform tasks The lower end of a student's zpd is how successfully a student can perform a task without assistance The upper end of a student's zpd is how well the student can perform the same task with assistance The instruction is then geared toward teaching the student to perform the task without assistance, up to the level of performance previously demonstrated with assistance
The distance between what an individual can accomplish independently and what he/she can accomplish with the help of someone who is more competent (Vygotsky, 1978 )
The difference in performance between what a learner can accomplish unassisted and what he could accomplish with the assistance of a more knowledgeable or capable other
