Primes

• Defamiliarization
  • In pedagogy, Socratic questioning, deliberate naïve framing, and historical denaturalisation ("we did not always organise schools this way") defamiliarize so that students can see concepts they had been carrying unexamined.

    This sourceAnalyzes the Socratic elenchus as systematic questioning that surfaces and tests the unexamined assumptions buried in a confident interlocutor's beliefs until contradiction exposes them — the pedagogical defamiliarization the marker invokes.

• Dialectic
  • the commitment that through this exchange, both interlocutors' understanding is refined, refined claims are not merely reasserted but genuinely changed; (3) the productive-aporia recognition

    This sourceArgues for Socratic 'complex irony' and that Socrates' professed ignorance is sincere; supports the productive-aporia recognition (184) and the Socratic-irony tension (T2).
