    Vygotsky's social-cultural theory focuses on social interaction and culture in cognitive development. He believed that social learning precedes development, and that cognitive development happens through social interactions from cooperation with more capable peers or adults. A key concept is the zone of proximal development, which is the difference between what a learner can do independently and what they can accomplish with guidance and encouragement from a skilled teacher or peer.
