Dr. Gunga is attempting to determine the zone of proximal development for Dinn when Dinn works on complex mazes. In order to do so, Dr. Gunga must measure Dinn's personal performance on the maze and
A)Dinn's performance on several other Piagetian tasks.
B)Dinn's maze performance when assisted by a skilled helper.
C)Dinn's peers' performance on the same maze.

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

To determine the zone of proximal development for Dinn when working on complex mazes, Dr. Gunga needs to measure Dinn's performance on the maze when assisted by a skilled helper. This will allow Dr. Gunga to see how much Dinn is capable of accomplishing with assistance, which will help define his zone of proximal development. Dinn's performance on other tasks, his peers' performance on the same maze, and how well he performed on the same maze in the past are not relevant to determining his zone of proximal development.
