See a good, brief introduction to Socratic Seminars here.

If you're looking for a way to stimulate students' thinking, to get them to read more carefully and with greater understanding, and to learn to "disagree agreeably," then consider learning to facilitate Socratic Seminars in your classroom.

I hope these pages and their links to some of the many other related sites will help you understand how Socratic Seminars can contribute to your classroom.
