Socratic Method
04/10/2007
Today’s neat-ness is an interesting discussion of the Socratic Method , used on 3rd graders. The Socratic method is a way of helping people find answers for themselves, and is very affective at any age for teaching. I also personally find it works great fro settling arguments. It’s hard to scream at someone while you are asking a question.

I really really want to take a look at the site you referenced, but your link is malformed.
I’ll check back later to see if you update it.

Hi Cass I am attempting to expand the reach of PAD. I am commenting on each Postie Blog that is listed on the Linky List. I have a sidebar widget that many people have decided to put on their blogs. In return I link to your blog under my Photo-A-Day Hosts Blog Roll.
What is the widget. Well, it is a daily photo from my Photo-A-Day project. I have been taking and posting photos to my blog for 2+ years straight. I just started year 3. I’d like to get more people viewing the images and commenting on them so if I can get many Photo-A-Day hosts then I hope I can get people viewing my photos and leaving comments.
You can add Photo-A-Day to your blog and contact me letting me know the widget it up and I will add you to my PAD Host link list.
Here is the link to the Photo-A-Day instructions and code. http://www.benspark.com/photo-a-day/

Ok, it’s hard to scream while I asking a question unless you are married to Brettbum!

What if you run out of questions…or what if you ask a question and then you just hear crickets? 😉
Really cool stuff…interesting reading!
