Socratic Questioning Enabled Analysis of Problem Behaviours

Critical Thinking and Socratic Questioning in Asynchronous Mathematics Discussion Forums

The study was an attempt to measure critical thinking in two asynchronous discussion forums in an engineering mathematics unit. The Socratic questioning technique was the moderation strategy employed in the forums. The participants of the study were 60 undergraduates from Swinburne University of Technology, Sarawak Campus, enrolled in a mathematics course. Quantitative and qualitative data were...

Using Socratic Questioning to Promote Critical Thinking Skills Through Asynchronous Discussion Forums in Distance Learning Environments

This study investigated the effects of using Socratic questioning to enhance students’ critical thinking (CT) skills in asynchronous discussion forums (ADF) in university-level distance learning courses. The research effort empirically examined two coherent subjects: (a) the efficacy of teaching and modeling Socratic questioning for developing students’ CT skills in ADF and (b) the persistence ...

the problem of divine hiddenness

این رساله به مساله احتجاب الهی و مشکلات برهان مبتنی بر این مساله میپردازد. مساله احتجاب الهی مساله ای به قدمت ادیان است که به طور خاصی در مورد ادیان ابراهیمی اهمیت پیدا میکند. در ادیان ابراهیمی با توجه به تعالی خداوند و در عین حال خالقیت و حضور او و سخن گفتن و ارتباط شهودی او با بعضی از انسانهای ساکن زمین مساله ای پدید میاید با پرسشهایی از قبیل اینکه چرا ارتباط مستقیم ویا حداقل ارتباط وافی به ب...

Socratic Trees

We consider the method of Socratic proofs (SP-method). SP-method enables a formal explication of the idea of solving logical problems (i.e problems of entailment/ derivability/ theoremhood) by pure questioning, that is, by transforming the relevant initial question into consecutive questions without making any use of answers to the questions just transformed. Our aim is to give a method of tran...
