The Socratic seminar is a formal discussion, based on a text, in which the leader asks open-ended questions. Within the context of the discussion, students listen closely to the comments of others, thinking critically for themselves, and articulate their own thoughts and their responses to the thoughts of others. Harper’s inspirational book provides advice in a down-to-earth style. His unique compilation of letters will provide wisdom, guidance, and heartfelt insight to help the YMOD chart their own path to success.
