  Zone of proximal development
  Zone of proximal development (ZPD). An educational construct that indicates the area that a learner can learn only if he or she is helped by a more competent other. ZPD lies in between the area that the learner can learn on his or her own and the area that the learner cannot learn even with the more competent other's assistance.

Script

Obviously, learner can study anything on their own. If they need assistance, their educational objectives shall ideally be in the zone of proximal development (ZPD).

This zone indicates the area that a learner can learn only if he or she is helped by a more competent other. ZPD lies in between the area that the learner can learn on his or her own and the area that the learner cannot learn even with the more competent other's assistance.

To be productive, training should target this zone of proximal development.

Training targets may belong to one or more of three development domains.

The affective domain is concerned with emotions and learners' well-being. This is about how well we feel.

The psychomotor domain is responsible for development of practical skills and actions. This is how well we behave.

The cognitive domain targets development of perception and decision-making. This is about how well we understand.

All of the three domains together define our attitudes.
