Learning backwards, or scaffolding, involves starting with basic phrases in language instead of complex grammar rules. Scaffolding in learning is like setting up support to reach a height and then being able to stand on your own. It's about starting with initial instruction or tutorials, then becoming independent. Effective scaffolding involves learning from someone slightly ahead to find a balance between aspiration and achievability, rather than learning from experts who might be too distant and unrelatable.
