Ask most teachers whether they use technology in classroom discussions, and you’ll get a complicated answer. Socratic seminar strategies are built on face-to-face dialogue, active listening, and the kind of evidence-based reasoning that happens when students have to think on their feet. So where does a Chromebook fit into that picture? In this second post of the Should I Use Tech for This? summer series, we’re working through exactly that question — making the case for a fully analog seminar while showing how intentional technology use in the prep phase can produce discussion strategies for high school students that are sharper, better prepared, and more confident than anything a digital backchannel could deliver.
