Socratic Questioning
Disciplined questioning that enables critical thinking...
- Clarification – "What do you mean by...?"
- Probing assumptions – "What could we assume instead?"
- Probing reasons/evidence – "Why do you think this is true?"
- Implications and consequences – "What effect would that have?"
- Different viewpoints – "What would be an alternative?"
- Questioning the original question – "What was the point of this question?"
