Abstract

Context Effect Educational Philosophy Elementary Secondary Education Higher Education Irony Philosophy Socrates Socratic Method Teaching Methods
Current uses of Socratic teaching, including those of V. G. Paley, are analyzed, and inconsistencies among them are identified. The misuse or abuse of the Socratic legacy occurs chiefly when his teaching is interpreted narrowly as a pedagogical technique devoid of context and irony. (Author/SLD)
