I feel as though this concept of active learning pairs well with Vygotsky's "Zone of Proximal Development" as the ZPD actualizes the ideal level of support, yet encourages self-sufficiency and exploration within students. Because I do believe there needs to be some catalyst that gives the students a reason to be curious and want to learn, the teacher, but still give them the freedom to navigate their learning and education on their own. And the collaboration with others also helps them gain new perspectives and ideas to add to their educational discoveries.
