Spotlight on Strategies: Socratic Seminar
What instructional goal/challenge does your SOS address?
To begin, my spotlight on strategy addresses a number of PA Common Core State Standards:
CC.1.2.7.B Cite several pieces of textual evidence to support analysis of what the text says explicitly, as well as inferences, conclusions, and/or generalizations drawn from the text.
CC.1.4.7.I Acknowledge alternate or opposing claims and support claim with logical reasoning and relevant evidence, using accurate, credible sources and demonstrating an understanding of the topic.
CC.1.4.7.U Use technology, including the Internet, to produce and publish writing and link to and cite sources as well as to interact and collaborate with others, including linking to and citing sources.
CC.1.5.7.A Engage effectively in a range of collaborative discussions, on grade-level topics, texts, and issues, building on others’ ideas and expressing their own clearly.
CC.1.5.7.B Delineate a speaker’s argument and specific claims, evaluating the soundness of the reasoning and the relevance and sufficiency of the evidence.
Most importantly, my SOS gets students thinking. This is, in my opinion, the ultimate goal of every teacher of every grade and subject. It also utilizes different technologies and digital medias, which addresses the challenge of meeting our students at their level via their interests and learning preferences.
What additional value does the integration of digital media bring to your idea in terms of students’ understanding of the concept or topic?
The digital media that I integrated into this Socratic Seminar strategy brings deeper reflection and deeper interaction and engagement between the students and the topic at hand. if students are engaging and reflecting on a deep level, they are more likely to not only understand the concept or topic, but understand it thoroughly. Incorporating the digital media that I chose, elevates this classic class strategy to new levels.
