Maieutics is the questioning technique used by Socrates. It gradually led a student from his or original idea to the greater complexity in the mind of the teacher. The author argues that such a sequence shotld, in the case of the ethnic-minority student, lead from his (minority) cultural reference to those of the majority culture, for such context is in itself ethnic-specific, and that the nationalization of curricular terms is crucial to cross-national teaching.
