- ErikVandeWater 6y agoNot sure why you're downvoted. I'm open to suggestions. The Socratic Method is similar. But it differs because it is trying to expose a contradiction in thought about a particular subject through questions. Whereas you can trick others into critical thinking about a subject just by helping them think critically in general, and it can be done without the use of questions.
