Definition of Scaffolding

I'm quoting a colleague and friend here, Vance Stevens, he wrote: "scaffolding is the term constructionists use to describe the bootstrapping that takes place between those interacting within a ZPD or zone of proximal development. The theory is that learning is social and that people learn from one another by feeding off each other's expertise ('scaffolding'), as we do in Webheads."
