Socratic Seminar Reflection- 1984 book3

The Socratic seminar influenced my thinking on the topic by improving my intellectual way of thinking as the students connect evidence from the book 1984 book 3 and from other documents..One thing that had made me think was how the students started the conversation with level 3 to "break the ice". I was impressed that you separated the group by the gender, It really worked out since everybody was able to express how they felt towards everybody answer and question. I love how the female group was respectful to everybody and didn't over talk over anybody, I just think the male group just needs to work on how no to over talk somebody when they're talking. With us separated everybody was comfortable with one another.

One thing that surprise me was when I asked " If one word has many meaning, does that make language richer or poorer?", I felt that all the female in the group was able to talk about this for 2 minutes and was dragging in other female to join in, expressing their opinion.

Everybody in the group was prepared to answer question and had their quotes ready to use. I think we just need to speak louder and was kinda hard for me to hear even though we are lest then 1-4 feet away from each other.

Watching the male group was pretty fun, since they got so intense in the question and response. This worked out better then I expected. 

Things that needs to be improved is before class starts do a ice breaker since every time we do a seminar everybody feel so awkward towards each other.  So far a good Socratic seminar.
