✗ Not quite — the correct answer is highlighted above.
Detailed Explanation & Solution
In Lev Vygotsky's socio-cultural theory, the 'Zone of Proximal Development' (ZPD) represents the gap between what a child can do independently and what they can do with guidance from an adult or More Knowledgeable Other (MKO). 'Scaffolding' is the temporary and flexible support provided during this process, which is gradually faded as the learner's proficiency increases. Through this, external social communication is gradually transformed into inner speech and self-regulatory cognitive skills.
