Load balancing ensures that every node in the network does approximately equal amount of work (as per their capacity) at…

beginning in early childhood (Duchesne et al., 2013). Vygotsky’s theory of cognitive development discusses using scaffolding to help students solve problems and reach ZPD. The ZPD is the distance between the child’s actual development level (ADL) and the level they can achieve with guidance (Duchesne et al., 2013).
