It also states that the cognitive development of children and adolescents is enhanced when they interact with others who have more advanced skills.

A rich experience is what a leaner needs to develop to a knowledgeable individual‚ and the impact of the surrounding environment and the scaffolds in it are important for learning. Vygotsky (1978) has proposed that the learner needs to be scaffolded in order to acquire all the skills that would have been difficult to acquire independently. The Vygotskian theoretical perspective holds that learners‚ and especially children can perform
