Helping students develop the ability to construct high-quality arguments and to engage in productive argumentation with others is now widely seen as an essential goal of schooling that should be at the forefront of our efforts to develop an educated citizenry. From major policy documents, academic publications, and the popular press, we hear the call for teachers to prepare their students to make well-reasoned judgments about complex, controversial issues. Today, students are expected to actively engage in knowledge construction through inquiry and argumentation, by asking questions, defining problems, challenging the ideas of others, formulating their own positions, and supplying reasons and evidence for what otherwise would be unsupported opinions. These ambitious educational goals call for profound changes in the roles and responsibilities traditionally assigned to students and teachers. They require creative solutions, which include the use of innovative pedagogies and technologies.This project will organize a workshop to support a dialogue among scholars in argumentation and technology, creating a shared space for researchers to discuss existing barriers and blind spots and engage in cross-disciplinary collaboration. During the two-day, online workshop, participants will present innovative research in their respective fields and form cross-disciplinary teams to discuss opportunities for joint projects and grant applications. In addition, participants will complete an open-ended online survey to address ideas, barriers, and opportunities for continued collaboration. They will also evaluate their experience during the workshop and suggest improvements for promoting dialogue between the fields of argumentation and technology. The workshop will bring together learning scientists specializing in research on argumentation and computer science experts developing innovative technologies, thus supporting frontier research in both fields. It will survey existing challenges in argumentation and technology, identify additional areas of concern, explore possible solutions, and create new opportunities for cross-disciplinary collaboration.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

现在，帮助学生发展建立高质量论点并与他人进行富有成效论证的能力现在被广泛看作是教育的基本目标，这应该是我们努力发展受过教育的公民的最前沿。从主要的政策文件，学术出版物和受欢迎的媒体来看，我们听到了教师呼吁他们的学生准备对复杂，有争议的问题做出良好判断的判断。如今，希望学生通过询问和论证来积极参与知识构建，提出问题，定义问题，挑战他人的思想，制定自己的立场，并提供理由和证据，以否则将是不受支持的意见。这些雄心勃勃的教育目标要求对传统上分配给学生和老师的角色和责任进行深刻的改变。他们需要创造性的解决方案，其中包括使用创新的教学法和技术。该项目将组织一个研讨会，以支持论证和技术学者之间的对话，为研究人员创造了共同的空间，以讨论现有的障碍和盲点，并进行跨学科合作。在为期两天的在线研讨会上，参与者将在各自的领域展示创新的研究，并组成跨学科团队，以讨论联合项目和授予申请的机会。此外，参与者将完成一项开放式在线调查，以解决持续协作的想法，障碍和机会。他们还将在研讨会期间评估自己的经验，并提出改进，以促进论证和技术领域之间的对话。该研讨会将汇集学习科学家，专门研究论证研究和计算机科学专家开发创新技术，从而支持这两个领域的边境研究。它将调查论证和技术中的现有挑战，确定其他关注的领域，探索可能的解决方案，并为跨学科合作创造新的机会。该奖项反映了NSF的法定任务，并被认为是通过基金会的智力优点和更广泛影响的审查标准通过评估来通过评估来获得支持的。
