Quand des élèves de CM1 argumentent

Claudine Garcia-Debanc, Quand des élèves de CM 1 argumentent This article sets out a comparative analysis of two oral argumentative discourse samples produced by ten years old pupils. They argue at the beginning of a scientific process (heuristic argumentation), then they have a discussion about books they like (rhetorical argumentation). The textual sequences and the construction of meaning through interaction are analysed. Both heuristic and rhetorical aspects are present in the two recordings.Garcia-Debanc Claudine.
