Socratic Dialogue

Socratic Dialogue

  • The goal of Socratic Dialogue is to have students think critically about difficult issues. First step is to pick a controversial topic or have students develop questions on their own or have them develop them as a class. The teacher will begin the discussion but throughout the year, students can rotate being the leader facilitator of the discussion. It is the leader’s job to clarify, synthesize, and restate opinions. It is the participant's job to think and speak persuasively with support.

Inquiry Based Learning

What is it?

  • This model facilitates active learning for students where students develop questions that they are hungry to answer. Learning is student driven and based on their interest. This model demonstrates that students learn best if they ask their own questions, pursue the answers themselves, and lastly reflect on what they have learned.

Example

  • Students will create three questions that they have about the history of Ballet dance. They will pursue the answers to the first two questions independently at the library. Next, they will find a peer in the class to ask and to finally reflect on what they have learned.
