Description

The students’ difficulties around dialectical argumentation in Physics problem-solving tasks are studied through acoustic, interaction, and argumentative analyses. Our case study with teacher students shows that they struggle with their conceptual understanding – leading to uncertainty and therefore no debate – but also with the social norms of not challenging the other learners’ ideas. We will show rich descriptions of these conversations and offer suggestions to ease the found difficulties.
