This chapter reports pilot work investigating the potential of Evidence-based Dialogue
Mapping to scaffold young teenagers’ scientific argumentation. Our research objective
is to better understand pupils’ usage of dialogue maps created in Compendium to write
scientific ex-planations. The participants were 20 pupils, 12-13 years old, in a summer
science course for “gifted and talented” children in the UK. Through qualitative analysis
of three case studies, we investigate the value of dialogue mapping as a mediating
tool in the scientific reasoning process during a set of learning activities. These
activities were published in an online learning envi-ronment to foster collaborative
learning. Pupils mapped their discussions in pairs, shared maps via the online forum
and in plenary discussions, and wrote essays based on their dialogue maps. This study
draws on these multiple data sources: pupils’ maps in Compendium, writings in science
and reflective comments about the uses of mapping for writing. Our analysis highlights
the diversity of ways, both successful and unsuccessful, in which dialogue mapping
was used by these young teenagers. |
