Аннотация:
The Socratic Method, a pedagogical approach rooted in the teachings of Socrates, emphasizes the importance of dialogue and inquiry in fostering critical thinking skills among students. This method prioritizes questioning over lecturing, encouraging students to explore complex ideas, challenge assumptions, and articulate their reasoning. By engaging in collaborative discussions, learners develop analytical skills and cultivate independent thought, which are essential in today’s rapidly changing world. This article examines the relevance of the Socratic Method in modern education, highlighting its effectiveness in enhancing comprehension, promoting active learning, and preparing students for real-world problem-solving.
