Does student-centered dialogical argumentation work in authentic classroom settings? Four experienced secondary teachers implemented an argument-based curriculum situated within the contexts of their four respective disciplines - language arts, history, science, and civic education. A mixed-method analysis showed that students who participated performed significantly better on a final argumenta...

This article addresses the problem of regularity extraction in dialogues in the shape of dialogical patterns. We present a dynamic programming algorithm which runs in O(n) which enables to extract patterns from two-dimensional dialogue annotations. We show how it can be combined to a clustering heuristique in order to extract relevant regularities from an annotated corpus. The parameters of the...

This paper takes on the task of providing a formal system of dialogue CE in which the speech acts of requesting and providing an explanation are represented as dialogue moves in the system. CE has opening rules, locution rules, dialogue rules, success rules and closing rules. The system is meant to be simple and basic, to provide a platform for developing more specialized formal dialogue system...

The dialogical self proposes a far-reaching decentralization of both the concept of self and the concept of culture. At the intersection between the psychology of the self in the tradition of William James and the dialogical school in the tradition of Mikhail Bakhtin, the proposed view challenges both the idea of a core, essential self and the idea of a core, essential culture. In apparent cont...

In Open Dialogue the first treatment meeting occurs within 24 hr after contact and includes the social network of the patient. The aim is to generate dialogue to construct words for the experiences embodied in the patient's psychotic symptoms. All issues are analyzed and planned with everyone present. A dialogical sequence analysis was conducted comparing good and poor outcomes of first-episode...

Being a pragmatic and not a referential approach to semantics, the dialogical formulation of paraconsistency allows the following semantic idea to be expressed within a semi-formal system: In an argumentation it sometimes makes sense to distinguish between the contradiction of one of the argumentation partners with himself (internal contradiction) and the contradiction between the partners (ext...

inner dialogue. Internal dialogical activity often reduces the experience of uncertainty by integration of contrasting ideas. Sometimes, however, the result is quite opposite – doubts grow rather than being reduced. The paper proposes a dialogical model of doubtfulness and presents empirical findings which are consistent with the model. Additionally, the functions of doubtfulness and internal d...

We outline the beginnings of a proof-theory for the dialogical logic N introduced in [1].
