Socrates used a teaching method called the Socratic method. It involved questioning and engaging in dialogue with students to stimulate critical thinking and uncover underlying assumptions. By asking probing questions, he encouraged students to think for themselves and arrive at their own conclusions, rather than simply providing them with answers.

What does the oracle at Delphi say and how does Socrates respond to it?

The oracle at Delphi declared that Socrates was the wisest man in Athens. Socrates responded by interpreting this as a call to question and challenge his own and others' knowledge, believing that true wisdom comes from acknowledging one's own ignorance.


What point did Socrates make by telling the story of the oracle of Delphi?

Socrates used the story of the Oracle of Delphi to demonstrate that his wisdom came from recognizing his own ignorance. The oracle proclaimed Socrates as the wisest man, but Socrates interpreted this as a call to seek knowledge through questioning and self-reflection rather than claiming to know everything.


Was Socrates crazy for trying to wake up the people of Athens?

One could argue that since Socrates was eventually sentenced to death for heresy, he was at least imprudent, in his philosophical teaching. But on the other hand, had he lived a cautious and prudent life, keeping his ideas to himself to avoid causing controversy, no one today would remember who he was. It may be that his accomplishments, as one of history's most influential philosophers, outweigh his shortened lifespan. In any event, I would not call Socrates crazy.


Do you agree with Socrates when he argued that knowing is knowing why?

Socrates is famous in part for claiming ignorance, not knowledge. In fact, with respect to causal knowledge or knowing why, he is reported by Plato to have said that it was so impossible that he gave up what we would call science because of it. .

How do you call a method from inside the main method?

I assume the question is about Java. How you call a method from inside the main method depends on whether this is an instance method or a static method. To call an instance method, you need to have a valid instance. Say foo is an instance of class Foo, which was created inside the main method. Then to call the instance method implode() use foo.implode() To call the static method bar() of class Foo, use Foo.bar().


Static method can be call object?

yes we can call a static method with object


What is the teaching method in Pakistan?

Teaching method in Pakistan is good not very. We have the qualified teachers but they are not able to teach the children very well they just learn the things to the children and transfer the basic knowledge to the students so our children are not able to do any kind of job they are not ready to face the difficulties of life because they do not have the basic experience. For Example when we call our students to please come on dies they are not ready and this is the fault of our poor educational system and our teachers and also the students are responsible in which. LIKE when we call our students on dies they feel hesitation and feel uncomfortable i am talk about our elder students who are studying in MBA, M.COM, M.SC not the small children means students.

Do Catholic priests teach what was written in the Bible as main basic source of Christian belief?

Roman Catholic AnswerCatholic priests teach Christianity as taught to us by Our Blessed Lord, and handed down from His disciples though the Bishops in union with His Vicar, the Pope. Part of that teaching is the Bible which we compiled in the first four centuries after Christ's resurrection. The main source of Christian belief is what we call, "Tradition", which is the teaching handed down through the Church, part of Tradition which got written down was the Bible, but that was a century or so later. All teaching is, of course, consistent with the Bible, as the Bible is part of that teaching.
