Unlocking Comprehension Through Conversation: The Role of Socratic Seminars LIMITED
Wednesday May 28, 2025 12:30pm - 2:00pm CDT
Room 1317
We will explore the transformative power of Socratic Seminars as a tool for enhancing reading comprehension in all content areas. Participants will discover how fostering meaningful, student-led conversations can deepen understanding of texts, promote critical thinking, and strengthen communication skills. Through discussion-based strategies, educators will learn how to create an environment where every voice matters and how dialogue can lead to richer, more thoughtful interpretations of text. Whether you're new to Socratic Seminars or looking for fresh ideas, this session will provide practical insights to bring the power of conversation into your classroom.
