this is a great explanation. Usually when you hear about people talking about the "socratic method" in law school they use it to express extreme stress of being called on, or fear, anxiety, etc. However, it's a learning experience that requires thinking and analyzing rather than being fearful of the professor and conversation. I think there is no wrong answer here (except if you are unprepared and dont know the material for class). Thank you!

I find the Socratic Method and Devil's Advocacy to be fun. I love the 'Why' questions, because it makes you think critically and establishes your credibility on the subject.

I'm nearly 30 years into practice and, although I had an inkling, this truly explains how my professors turned my mind of mush into a critical thinking, questioning mind. Also why I never accept the easy answer (those scare me to death, even if true). ;-)

[@jackiepyzocha7380]

I first read the Socratic Dialogues when I was a teenager (a thousand centuries ago) and it seemed that the method revolved around the word 'therefore'. Principles are built up in layers like a wedding cake with a final 'a-ha' moment forming the crown of the cake. Each new principle relies on the previous one agreed on by the participants. We can imagine how this method was used by Jurists in Scotland when they established their 'three verdict' trial system. 1. If there is sufficient proof of guilt the verdict is 'guilty'. 2. If there is sufficient proof of innocence the verdict is 'not guilty'. 3. If there is no sufficient proof of either the verdict is 'not proven'.

Does Socrates mean social rule as written by Plato? All names have meanings. If so, what does the word plato mean? Could Socrates be Plato's main the character in some of his plays? Riddles, odes, and epic adventures were the entertainments of the day. His writings were inspired by his God (Sophia). In the beginning was Logos. I, like everyone that has read Plato, I am in awe of his genius. It appears that during the period that Plato lived many religions had their roots throughout the world. Seek and ye shall find.

When you're in court addressing a motion or response, the judge may well ask you about the facts of the case and what are the controlling cases. The facts of the case at hand will never be 100% copy of the case facts. The judge will ask why it applies or why it should he distinguished. The classroom questioning may be stressful, but I guarantee you that its nowhere as stressful than standing in court while a room full of other lawyers are sitting there waiting their turn are second guessing your answers, or a jury box full of jurors are watching you sweat, hem and haw, while your mouth has dried up like a piece of cardboard. So be prepared and get used to standing in the classroom If i were a professor, I woukd direct the student to stand and address me to answer the question. Stressful but necessary to build up the emotional toughness.

[@dori10]

The socratic method works well and gives best results ... when the teacher is good at playing his/her role. The socratic method needs a well trained teacher and as the teacher should guide the conversation, not terorize the students. It's like guiding the student through the law's labyrinth and.. in the end, it's about gaining and developing the basics and obtaining the necessary set of skills to ,,learn and guide yourselft to the answer". Years passed, after I've finished law university and.. most often I find out that you're on your own when it comes to the legal field. In university, had a teacher that once said: use the chance that university offers to you, to be able to ask questions, after you finish it, in very few cases you'll find someone willing to do so. Law is a human concept, a human product, it works with abstract notions, those who are about and for humans. I'm not talking about the law meaning (as a set of universal principles), but about law as a rule that's needed for human's society to work. So, in fact, law regulates the connection (put in abstract words) between at least two people. For example, X and Y make contact, that contact is what law can regulate, if law's needed. Law is closely related with a legal sanction (punishment from a legal point of view). Law's closely related to morals, but it's not equal to morals. Law works with human behaviour done in society, with intent. For example, I can destroy the car that I own, but law doesn't allow me to destroy my car if I didn't fully pay it and it's a guarantee for the credit that I own or by setting it on fire as that fire may spread and affect others/... From my point of view, the socratic method is one of the hardest methods that can be applied by a teacher. The teacher should be trusted by his/her students and for the teacher to know how to develop at his/her students the necessary skills: how to study, how to think, how to manage the necessary resources, to sum up: how to develop. Most legal cases have a red line, the basic steps that can be identified and applies in all cases, be them civil or criminal cases. That stars from: who is subjected to the law, where's the law appliable (country/area) and the time moment (which law is appliable, time wise). What's after that is where things develop. Most laws are a continuation of others, an evolutions of social needs and understanding. Though, as I've learned late, law also has some things that you should memorize: like dates & terms. You can avoid forcefull memorizing by using the information, the content. You note down the date and revize it often enough for it to imprint in your memory, you can memorize it by working with it. Most students learn how to learn. Most often, students make first contact with law in it's final form, in university. Though, in practice, they need to go before and after the actual law. To see if the law is appliable or if it can be/should be changed to properly fit the actual social conditions.

Boot camp approach backfires when student's knowledge extends far past the professor's (STEM here). Students who have a true passion for a field are often despised despite their dispostion, I have tried all ranges, from courteous and cordial to pure vicious deconstruction of logic to make a teacher look stupid. (Because frankly if a student can do that in every aspect of your field, you should be fired) It isn't hard to be more prepared than the teacher/prof when you put more time into research and studies than they have, simply because you have that passion. Ergo, I expect teachers should be required to have that passion, otherwise they will snuff out any they see. Even courteous corrections, desiring truthful and accurate descriptions, often seem to trigger an egocentric response. It nearly always you sh*t-listed but also he can't look you in the eye for the rest of the semester and so far administrative action has worked to my favor. From my own anecdotal experience and critical analysis of their skills, knowledge, reasoning abilities, patience, willingness to admit error, etc....80% of teachers and professors have no business in their respective professions. It also seems vital to be a good teacher, he needs to have the desire to propel the students beyond your understanding must be the core motivation. The remaining 20% are all teachers who demonstrated that desire and empathy towards their students. There are also just issues with the curriculums, making teachers victims to them, but they should not be unthinking sheep and become the embodiment of the systems problems. Obviously critical thinking needs to be the primary motivation in education...Force a man to memorize to cage him, teach him to learn to free him. Then the students become weak minded and the next generation of teachers and professors become even more stubborn, ignorance, arrogant... Another problem is many teachers refuse to answer some of the harder questions, the more abstract engaging ones, particularly if they can't answer it or just intimidates them because they need to consider it. That refusal alone often seems to, in younger and older settings alike, discourage a curious and inquisitive nature. I'd charge it as a primary factor to blame for the many people who do not love to learn. It feels like you have to protect that love with all your heart from the institutional system, and it seems in doing so you become a target because you do not drone as expected. I'm sure many have watched as someone's curiosity was murdered in class to never revive again.

[@paulwalters5943]

Your reasoning is flawed. You speak about teachers and teaching from a student’s perspective. Until you’ve become a teacher, you are unable to make those claims with any degree of accuracy. You may be smarter than your teachers about whatever subject they teach. But you’ll never know why those teachers are who they are until you’ve lived in their shoes. Teaching chews you up and spits you out. It is an unforgiving, unappreciated profession. And unless someone starts a school of their own, you are always pigeonholed into doing things a way you would never choose to.

[@GRAYgauss]

Meh, accidentally erased my comment. I understand where you come from, but I have more experience than you know of. You're right that I used rhetoric based on ignoring the system's limitations and abilities. However, it's still true there are teachers who don't have the passion and shouldn't be teachers. Whose pride and ego suppresses kid's will to learn. I've first-hand undone this in the master/apprentice private setting, which they don't have the opportunity of. However the good teachers don't jade students like that even in school. There's just not enough of them to keep the students from feeling stupid/whatever. You're right, I really don't know what it is to be a teacher in that enviro, but I was thinking of those bad teachers, not the ones who have a love for students/pride in teaching. Also, none-the-less, the developed method based on those observations produced results which are enough for me; so I shouldn't have spoken as I did. The short of it is basd around the feedback loop of the teacher first learns the student's style of learning such that you can encourage them/teach them the topic while honing their learning method. So, apologies, I was wrong to assault, but I was really targetting the system that seems to enable these bad teachers to be standard. And those bad teacher's own lack of consideration when entering the profession. (Simpler things, like the ego, this that..Not maybe the unappreciation turning someone to hopeless pain or something) Let's discuss more, it's sounds lke I can learn from you. I'll do my best to be reasonable, continue to call me out if I didn't adequately consider my wrongs of my first comment. (Or the new wrongs I made here :s)
