Abstract

The present study aims to present the importance of Socratic thinking for the teaching of philosophy in basic education, considering the relevance, observance and prevalence of the Socratic method in contributing to the advancement of new methodologies in education, achieving a humanitarian and liberating formation of the teaching and the human being. We will focus on the characteristic of Socratic philosophy of conditioning its disciples to a reflection on their own statements and conclusions, showing the lack and superficiality of what is known, stimulating a self-reflection in the search for autonomy and knowledge, through irony and maieutics, associated the appreciation of criticism and autonomous thinking of the student in search of virtue and good living. The considerations converge in the perception of how Socratic thought renews the teachings for our reality, orienting towards erudition, the exercise of citizenship and the construction of critical and social knowledge.
