Socratic Seminar - Introduction (What Is Socratic Seminar?)

Created by

Transform students' critical text analysis and discussion skills by running Socratic Seminar (also known as Paideia and Harkness in some circles) with them. Not all discussion should go through the teacher - students need to be able to respond to each other. Both the physical layout of the classroom as well as the expectations for the Socratic Seminar will facilitate this. This document will orient you and your students to know what to expect when beginning your Socratic Seminar journey.Included

This product guides students through the process of researching a historical person or event. I have it set up to focus on Black History, but it could easily be edited to focus on a different topic. Once students begin their research, the slides should guide them through how to put together their findings on a chosen person or event.The Google Slides presentation includes:RubricList of influential Black individualsList of prominent events in Black HistoryLink to a firsthand vs secondhand account
