Why Bother With Socratic Seminar?

  • I should bother studying world history because it might help me later on in my life like if I want to be a world history teacher some day (which I doubt I will but whatever). Also I have to study for my tests so I can get good grades and get into a good college, plus it will make me smarter and seem more intelligent and could help me get a good job. You can never learn too much! Also you can use that information to look at what has happened in history and you can see the mistakes that other people made so you don't make the same mistakes.
  • I should bother studying literature because it will make me smarter and can help me expand on my vocabulary and ideas. Also literature can make you think and raise good questions that challenge your brain and it will also help you with college.
  • I should bother studying language arts because it can help me understand other cultures ( At least I think it does that? I'm not really sure what it is ). Again it will help me get more smart and obtain more knowlege.
  • I should bother studying geography because it shows me where different countries in the world are located which is a good thing to know. Also you can learn major landmarks like big mountain ranges and deserts and rainforests and things like that and that's important so if a teacher is talking about a specific country than you can know what the conditions are like there which can help with the understanding of that country.
