While there is no clear-cut definition of educational dialogue provided by CEDiR, we do know about some qualitities that enable better learning outcomes as well as the connections between thinking, speaking and learning which may influence the choice of concepts and philosophers we come up with.

She highlights that without the safeguards inherent in thinking and its ability to question and challenge itself a reasonable construction of knowledge is not possible. The will and judgement rely on reflective processes involved in thinking, but they themselves, are not directly involved in these processes as thinking happens within the interlocutor and thus is withdrawn from the world/others. The mental activities, themselves invisible and directed towards the invisible, reveal themselves only in language, says Arendt. Thus, communication is key to exchange them and reflect upon them, to alter them and to discuss them deliberatively. However, it’s not only syntax and grammar, semantics and pragmatics that will allow us to do so. It can also be symbols, pictures, gestures, or sounds. For cultures in which language plays such an important role as it is the case for “ours”, the strong connections between thinking and language suggest, that there is no speechless thinking, even if it’s only metaphorical. In the end, thinking is something that has some duality – me and me – and conversation, too – me and others.

It literally means "many voiced" and refers to voicing multiple characters through narrative.  
This concept is used to address the inner dialogic nature of any voice, through reported speech but also in many other ways. Rupert Wegerif uses makes reference to this concept: “Bakhtin pointed out… (that) we think in dialogues where what we say or write responds to what other people have said or written so there is always more than one voice and more than one way of seeing things… human thinking is always bursting with the surprising creativity that comes from holding multiple voices together in the tension of dialogue.” (Wegerif, 2010, p.26) ]]> 2022-03-29 15:24:27 UTC https://padlet.com/rerath/tr0l9vpbjkhn7vje/wish/2119606493 https://padlet.com/rerath/tr0l9vpbjkhn7vje/wish/2119649467 A view of reason referring to norms and procedures by which agreement (consensus in a democratic context) can be reached.
