Socrates (470-399) AC Theory: Knowledge is ethically and morally important to all men (Webb, 2010, p. 121). Classroom Engagement: Socrates' theory has integrated into current classroom engagement because it has focused more on engaging and interacting with students. He gained an understanding of their expectations and turned these things into greater engagement with students. This technique of understanding and engaging with students has been integrated into current classroom commitments today because teachers must strive to assist students as much as possible in the classroom. Teaching and Learning: Socrates' teaching skills were integrated into current practices through a method in which dialectical teaching was involved, commonly used today. This teaching method made it easy for students to understand and learn through dialect. Listen carefully and learn from the teacher through experimental and consequential questions and answers. Socrates became more involved with the student, increasing learning abilities through ideas and concepts. Through a process of questioning based on students' experiences and analyzing the consequences of the answers, students were able to better understand the problem (Webb, 2010, p.121). Parental or Community Involvement: Community involvement was also integrated into Socrates' teaching because he believed that education was a great resource of knowledge and reasoning for every individual. He believed that society and education must be closely interrelated to maintain power and with this belief community involvement in education remains strong today. Social or Emotional Support for Students: Socrates has incorporated student social... middle of paper... ....educators to help improve his educational contributions. This allowed for community involvement. It also established by law that parents must be involved in their children's education (Webb, 2010, p.128). This allows the educational process of the teacher and student to be simple. This theory has become integrated into current education in both the involvement of educational leaders to help improve learning and the involvement of parents who take the time to interact in their children's education. There is still social or emotional support for students: Calvino's portrayal of the importance of education led me to perceive that social and emotional support for students was a priority. Calvin's commitment to making the learning process easier makes me assume that student support is just as important to him as it is today.
