XMCA collegues:

I have been rather timid in posting my question, since I am newly entering
this world and my Vygotskian background is limited. In my reading the ZPD
tends to be limited to a particular time frame (variously defined). In
February (23) Nate Schmolze referred to Yaroshensky as believing that
devlopmental stages were continually restructuring.

Has anyone spoken of life itself as one large ZPD with other ZPD within or am
I carrying this too far?
