Before reading- While I found the cover of The Hot Zone by Richard Preston to be somewhat dull, the subtitle intrigued me. I personally am extremely interested in the subject of pathology and biology in general, and I look forward to reading this particular piece. This is the first time I have heard of the author, but I am anticipating a captivating, provocative read. The creator, Richard Preston was born on August 5th in the midst of the summer heat of 1954. He originated out of Cambridge,…
1. The Zone of Proximal Development (ZPD) refers to an aspect of Lev Vygotsky's sociocultural theory. ZPD is a term used to describe the distance between what a learner can do on their own and what they can do with assistance. Yes, I believe it is possible for a classroom teacher to instruct all children in their classroom based on knowledge of each child's ZPD. Through classroom assessments teachers will understand the academic level of each of their students, and from there, build off of what…
two children will reach the same milestones. The zone of proximal development was introduced by Vygotsky in his sociocultural theory. This theory based on the distance between the knowledge the child currently has, and the knowledge that the child can achieve with the assistance of an adult. In other words, what the child is capable of doing on their own, as compared what they can achieve with the help of an adult. Children are not all at the same Zone of proximal development. A teacher who has…
Vygotsky Zone of Proximal development has not only played a important role in children but also adults. The Zone of Proxima devlopment illustrates how scaffolding plays a huge impact in a Childs learning, as they grow up. Without the proper assistance when they are young, they will be unable to do things on their also known as indepence. There are pros and cons to the ZPD. The con to the ZPD is when a child is provided with too much assistance, it can cause them to develop what we call “needy or…

On the morning of February 28, 2001 the Pacific Northwest was hit by a 45 second, 6.8 magnitude intraslab earthquake called the Nisqually or “The Ash Wednesday” earthquake. The Nisqually earthquake occurred when the Juan de Fuca plate subducted under the North American plate, this quickly released the built up strain. This was caused by mineral changes as the plate moved farther into the mantle. The Nisqually earthquake hit the southern end of Puget Sound causing damage to the ports of Seattle…
Introduction Due to my own affinity for English and the fact that I can see myself using it with my kindergarten O&P class, I chose the rhyming lesson plan. I think this lesson plan would be appropriate for kindergarteners towards the middle/end of the academic year. At this age, many will not be totally literate, but should be able to detect basic rhymes. Additionally, kindergarteners should be able to identify the words sounds associated with different letters, allowing them to spell…
As Anghileri (2006) indicates, the way mathematics is taught has had to change. The main influence for this change has been the shift in what the 21st century society demands of its students. Previously, knowledge acquisition was viewed as the most important part of being a maths student, however in the 21st century, various skill sets and understanding is more desirable than reciting facts and figures, especially now that technology can recite fact and figures in more detail, faster and with…
when they are working within their zone of proximal development (ZPD) as well as when scaffolding is being used. According to Clark & Graves (2005, p. 571), “every mental function in a child’s development first appears in collaboration with an adult”. When one is working within their ZPD, over a period of time, they are able to mentally process the work that they could not do before (Clark & Graves,…
