This article is the second in a two-part series addressing two divergent educational models-the Diagnostic Prescriptive approach and the Behavioral Analysis approach. In the first article a comparison between the two models was made delineating similarities and differences across the two systems. A systematic integration of the pedagogically useful and helpful components from each approach into a singular comprehensive system was suggested. This article explicates the proposed educational approach, the Dialectic Teaching System.
