Question

Which statement is NOT part of Vygotsky’s idea of the “zone of proximal development”?

Question 31 options:

Development occurs differently in different cultural/geographical “zones” around the world and can be optimized when a child is young by staying in the familiar zone “proximal” to the child.

If an activity is not challenging enough, it doesn’t promote children’s development.

If an activity is too far beyond a child’s current level of development, it doesn’t promote his or her development.

The upper limit of a zone of proximal development is the level of performance a child can reach with help from an able instructor.

The lower limit of a zone of proximal development is the level of performance a child can reach while working alone.

Explanation / Answer

Option 3rd is correct answer. Option 3rd is not the part of Vygotsky’s idea of the “zone of proximal development. Zone of proximal development is the difference between what a learner can do without help and what he or she can do with help. Vygotsky also stated thet the development is varied with the social and geographical zones.
