Socratic dialogue
It is an argument or a group of arguments in the form of a series based on the principle of questions and answers as it was used by Socrates in his dialogues with Plato, hence this method took the name of the Socratic dialogue as it is also known as the Platonic dialogue and it is a strategy for reading and discussion based on the Socratic method. The purpose of this strategy is to encourage patterns of students that respect dialogue and gain a deep understanding of the text. The Socratic dialogue circle is a dialogue, not just a discussion. It is designed to help students develop their higher-order thinking skills through discussion, questioning, questioning, and defining concepts such as truth, justice, beauty, and equality. A Socratic dialogue loop can be used with a section of text that needs further explanation, clarification, and depth, around a specific question that needs further exploration, and can be used for a short topic as a main discussion.
