Dialogue is…
• Collaborative
• About understanding
• Listening for deeper meaning
• Keeping an open mind
• About respecting participants
Debate is…
• About proving others wrong
• Close-minded
• About defending beliefs/assumptions
• Belittling or demeaning others
• Having one right answer
**The purpose of
Socratic Seminar is to expand our ideas
and engage in dialogue,
not to debate and try to come
to a conclusion*
