Abstract

The purpose of this research is to examine the educational implications of Vygotsky's (1978) notion of the Zone of Proximal Development, originally developed to account for the learning potential of children, and investigate ZPD applications in teaching and learning. Literature-based approach is used to gather the data. This research review represents the meaning of ZPD (Zone of Proximal Development), discusses the implications of ZPD for teaching and learning, and then classroom strategies. This paper presented the diverse applications of the ZPD in academic settings, highlighting its capacity to enhance instructional strategies and promote the development of learners. To create inclusive learning environments where every student can reach their full potential, educators are advised to use formative assessment practices, scaffolding techniques, peer collaboration promotion, differentiation of instruction, and technology tool integration.
