Socratic seminar is a discussion-based learning method that involves three roles: a leader who guides conversation, an inner circle who actively discusses the topic, and an outer circle who listens and can replace inner circle members. Students are seated in two circles and graded differently based on their participation level, with inner circle students receiving a higher grade than outer circle students. The leader ensures conversation stays on topic and avoids becoming too emotionalized.
