Socratic circles, continued.

Feedback from Friday

  • Nature vs Nurture:
    • Plato believes all learning is recollection (nature)
    • on the contrary, knowledge/understanding develops over time (nurture)
  • Focus on little questions next time

Something for Today's Circles

  • "Living" words (i.e. spoken)
    • Ancient Greeks believed that sound is "soul" of the words or musical instrument
