Socratic Seminar Student Generated Thought Provoking Questions Due 5.8.15 by 7pm

Hello,

Please make sure to post your questions to the video that Sadia and Joshua selected. When posting your questions, these are the key things you need to remember:

  • Make your questions clear, short and thought provoking
  • Questions should not produce an easy answer, it should elicit a variety of responses from different perspectives. Basically, there is more than one way to answer a question but it should somehow still be connected.
  • DO NOT WRITE TWO QUESTIONS AS ONE! Quite a few of you did that and it only caused confusion to those in the circle and too much clarifying for the leaders.
If you have any questions, please email me at thereadingcafe@aol.com.
