To achieve the goal, the following tasks were solved: to distinguish between the meaning of the term with synonymous terms in the field of education and pedagogy, to establish the history of the penetration of the term «scaffolding» into the terminological conceptual field of academic writing and to describe the use of the term in modern methods of teaching academic writing. The study is based on more than 50 Russian-language and English-language sources that are publicly available on the Internet. The research methods included analysis of theoretical sources, Russian-language and English-language Internet resources, frequency analysis and content analysis. The conclusion is that the term is quite widely used in the English studies, and it is relatively new in the Russian studies. As a result of the study, the difference between the term «scaffolding» and synonymous pedagogical terms was established and the scope of the term in the field of academic writing was described.
