Following the Krathwohl and Developmental Assessment (Griffin, 2014), I believe my current Zone of Proximal Development should be at the “Organizing” stage. At the start of the semester, I identified my ZDP the stage as “Responding”, as I was willing to passively receive information and attended all the learning environment, and while completing assessments following the formal requirements, I was not always engaged in discussion in the tutorials. Luckily, the natural of the very first…

One thing that children do very well is play; yet it can be difficult to define behaviors are considered play with the introduction of technology based games This paper will discuss what components make up children’s by describing the types of play and their functions, how play has changed with the rise of globalization and the digital play, and will conclude with the developmental ramifications of these changes. As stated in lecture, there are a numerous types of play children engage in…

In my high school, I have been involved as a member of S.H.O.W (Students Helping Our World). In the club S.H.O.W, I was always engaged in the conversation. This…

A Learning theory is a framework describing how information is processed and absorbed by our minds. Behavioural, personal and environmental factors, as well as previous experiences, all play a part in our understanding. They explain how different factors can help learners process and recall information, suggesting that as we learn we also change the way we perceive our surroundings and the way we interact with others. A definition by Kimble (1961) is that “Learning refers to a more or less…

knowledge of a schema or by changing the entire schema to accommodate a new piece of information. Vygotsky also is a constructivist similar to Piaget but he added more to the theory. In Vygotsky 's theory scaffolding is used to help a student get into the zone of proximal development. The way scaffolding works is like giving a student a boost in the right direction so they may learn new and challenging material more easily if it is within reach of…

Taupo Volcanic Zone The Taupo Volcanic Zone is a highly active volcanic region situated in the central part of the North Island in New Zealand. The Taupo Volcanic Zone (TVZ) stretches from Ohakune in the south of the Bay of Plenty to White Island in the north. It is estimated that the Earth’s crust below the Taupo Volcanic Zone may possibly be as small as 16 kilometers think and currently moves approximately 8mm per year. The TVZ is named after Lake Taupo, the caldera of the formaly largest…

Vygotsky’s main topic was the Zone of Proximal Development (ZPD) which uses social interaction with each other helps move development forward. You can implement Vygotsky’s theory of cognitive development in classrooms. Utah Education Network have stated “it’s a waste of time to teach kids what they already know and what they cannot do even with assistance” (Utah Education Network, 2005). Teachers should be modelling, explaining and using practice in the classrooms. What I mean by modelling is…

classroom activities, to increase their cognitive development (Roe & Smith, 2012). Teacher incorporate this theory through structured reading lessons and activities during guided reading and literacy centers. Within Vygotsky’s theory, he talks about the Zone of Proximal Development (ZPD). The ZPD is the area between what the child already knows and what they don’t know (Roe & Smith, 2012). Within this area, sensitive instruction should be given by the teacher in order for the students to…

For the terminology ZPD, what size is the zone, large or small? If there are only two people, student and the teacher, can they build up the ZPD? And the other one is the quality of interaction with teachers/peers. Will all of teachers/peers in this zone be high qualified? If there are low qualified peers/teachers, will ZPD still be effective? There’s no doubt that in this scenario, if the teacher…
