\nFor me the Socratic method is still a question mark, in terms of effectiveness. (I suppose it depends on who is yielding the tool and how it’s being utilized\/implemented.)<\/span><\/p>\n

But you have one student — often standing up and\/or in the spotlight — who is being drilled on something. That student could be calm and collected, and their cognitive processing could actually get a boost from the adrenaline.<\/span><\/p>\n

But there are other students who dread being called upon in such a public — sometimes competitive — setting. Their cognitive processing could shut down or become greatly diminished.<\/span><\/p>\n

Also, the professor is working with one student at a time<\/em> — hopefully the other students are trying to address each subsequent question, but some students may tune out once they know it’s not their turn in the spotlight.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

So I was wondering…could the Socratic method be used with each<\/em> student at the same time? Could a polling-like tool be used in real-time to guide the discussion?<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

For example, a professor could start out with a pre-created poll and ask the question of all students. Then they could glance through the responses and even scan for some keywords (using their voice to drive the system and\/or using a Ctrl+F \/ Command+F type of thing).<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Then in real-time \/ on-the-fly,<\/em> <\/span>could the professor use their voice to create another poll\/question — again for each student<\/em> to answer — based on one of the responses? <\/strong>Again, each student must answer the follow up question(s).<\/span><\/p>\n

Are there any vendors out there working on something like this?<\/strong> Or have you tested the effectiveness of something like this? <\/span><\/p>\n

Vendors: Can you help us create a voice-driven interface to offer the Socratic method to everyone<\/em> to see if and how it would work? (Like a Mentimeter<\/a> type of product on steroids…er, rather, using an AI-driven backend.)<\/strong><\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Teachers, trainers, pastors, presenters could also benefit from something like this — as it could engage numerous people at once.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Could such a method be used in language-related classes as well? In online-based tutoring?<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
