What is a Socratic Seminar?

Socratic seminars are named for their embodiment of Socrates’ belief in the power of asking questions, and valuing inquiry and discussion. Socratic seminars acknowledge the highly social nature of learning.

The Socratic seminar is a formal discussion, based on a text, in which the organizer asks open-ended questions. Within the context of the discussion, participants listen closely to the comments of others, thinking critically for themselves, and articulate their own thoughts and their responses to the thoughts of others. They question intelligently and civilly.
