Instruction）支架式教学是从前苏联心理学家维果斯基（Vygotsky,1978）的“临近发展区”理论（ZoneofProximalDevelopment）发展而来，借用建筑行业中使用的“脚手架”(Scaffolding)作为上述概念框架的形象化比喻，其实质是利用上述概念框架作为学习过程中的脚手架（如设问、提示和添加任务等）。这种框架中的概念是为发展学生对问题的进一步理解所要的，也就是说，该框架应按照学生智力的“最邻近发展区”来建立，因而可通过这种脚手架的支撑作用(“支架作用”)，不停顿地把学生的智力从一个水平提升到另一个新的更高水平，真正做到使教学走在发展的前面。参考毛爱萍的博客：/s/blog_4460236d0100ozf0.html支架式教学（Scaffolding
