During this interview series, hosted by Luis Figueroa; Michael Strong, the author of the bestseller "The Habit of Thought", speaks about the theory, vision and basis of Socratic practice, a novel and increasingly widespread approach to classroom instruction. In Chapter One: On Socratic Seminar, Strong mentions the elements of a Socratic seminar, explains its differences with a class discussion, and describes the role of the Socratic tutor. Throughout the interview, Strong argues that Socratic practice fosters a culture of learning in the classroom and ultimately helps people to become mature and independent thinkers.
