Abstract:	The Zone of Proximal Development (ZPD) is one of the most widely accepted concepts in education but new research using digital technologies has shown that the co-construction of knowledge in the ZPD can also provide a window into the process of conceptual consolidation. This paper uses digital data from primary school children to demonstrate how multimodality can expand the possibilities for project-based learning in the context of explanatory animation creation.
