Abstract

Researchers put their new scaffolding method for argumentation to the test. A recent study helped students to construct clear, logical arguments by scaffolding the argumentation process. Scientific practice involves justifying claims based on empirical or theoretical evidence, and argumentation is a key aspect of this. However, students often find justifying their claims with evidence and rebutting counterarguments difficult.
