Student
Guidelines for
a Socratic
Seminar
Students need to verbally
participate in Socratic
Seminar by contributing a
minimum of three
educated comments or
questions.
(This is worth 30 points.)
Students must respectfully
take turns speaking, and
listen carefully to each
other.
Students will refrain from
dominating the
conversation in an effort
to give each student an
opportunity to make at
least three comments.
In order to be as
persuasive as possible,
students will be prepared
to support all comments
and questions with textual
references or specific
examples.
Students will be prepared,
at the end of the Socratic
Seminar, to complete a
self/group evaluation of
the process as it took
place today.
