Abstract :
Supporting students in the acquisition of argumentation skills is an important goal of educational technology. However, there has not been much work done towards developing generic and reusable software architectures for collaborative argumentation that could reduce the development time for distributed argumentation learning systems. Based on a survey of more than 50 different argumentation systems, this paper presents a requirements analysis for a generic collaborative intelligent tutoring system for argumentation.
