El objetivo de este trabajo es explorar y contribuir a operativizar el concepto vygotskiano de ZDP. Reflexionamos a partir de una experiencia llevada a cabo en un curso de octavo de E.G.B. cuando el profesor y sus alumnos y alumnas aprenden a utilizar un instrumento cultural, la escritura. Ponemos el acento en los procesos de construcción conjunta del conocimiento fijándonos, sobre todo, en dos aspectos: por una parte, los cambios que se producen en el papel que niños y adulto van aceptando durante el tiempo en que se desarrolla una unidad didáctica y, por otra parte, las transformaciones que se producen en “la actividad del profesor”.
