Description

Scaffolding is the technique of providing support and gradually withdrawing support until an individual can perform a task independently. This approach is inspired by Vygotsky's theory of the Zone of Proximal Development. Dr. Ainslie, Dr. Hebert, and Dr. Luke discuss the use of the scaffolding model and how that method can be used for scaling complexity within Nurse Practitioner (NP) curricula.  Learn more about this strategy in their article in Nurse Educator.
