1) I’m not sure where your idea of Socratic questioning, but reading Plato’s dialoguesnI fail to see Socrates oto “guide the student’s inquiries to lead them to the right answer”. More often than not, the questioning serves to engage the interlocutor and induce aporia.

2) There reminas the possiblity that wonder can *sometimes* be induced according to some sort of plan or method, just as planning to have a time and method for improv practice may lead to certain instantiations of spontaneous expression. Many of my greatest wonderings were transmitted to me during planned presentations delivered by my teachers.

I just wanted to add a quick thank you for this blog post. Great suggestions, and more importantly, great resources to help someone overcome those common mistakes. As you said, it’s fine to acknowledge the mistakes but let’s be sure not to repeat them. Thanks for providing help to ensure that doesn’t happen. I will be sending this around to my staff for them to reflect!
