According to Lev Vygotsky's socio-cultural theory, when a More Knowledgeable Other (MKO) provides temporary, structured, and sensitive support to a learner to elevate them from their current level of ability to a higher level, and as the learner's mastery increases, that support is gradually faded out, which terminology is respectively used for this entire educational interaction process and that specific temporary support?

In Lev Vygotsky's socio-cultural theory, the temporary support or assistance given to a child or learner to accomplish complex tasks within their 'Zone of Proximal Development' (ZPD) is called 'Scaffolding'. Scaffolding is the process by which an MKO (More Knowledgeable Other) provides assistance, whereas ZPD is the actual developmental gap that exists between a child's independent performance and performance under adult/capable guidance.
