Argumentation is a social practice that can lead to epistemic outcomes, that is, to the construction of knowledge. Recent research in collaborative learning has pointed out the significance of affective and motivational aspects, as well as the influence of socio-relational concerns, which have been found to frequently take priority over epistemic o...
In Education for Sustainable Development, the promotion of environmentally responsible behaviours is a priority. This study examines dispositional traits of critical thinking related to the inclination to revise worldviews, challenge socially established ideas and engage in critical action (Jiménez-Aleixandre & Puig, this volume). We examine percei...

Argumentative discourse has a complexity that is not entirely captured by purely structural analyses. In arguments about socio-scientific issues (SSI), a range of dimensions, besides scientific knowledge, including values, ethical concerns, cultural habits, or emotions, are mobilized. The relationship between argumentation and emotions is now drawi...
This study addresses the use of epistemic criteria related to the scientific practice of inquiry in the context of environmental
chemistry. In particular, it analyses the type of criteria that are used by pre-service teachers when assessing the adequacy
of several scientific procedures for identifying microplastics in beach sand, as well as determi...
Human diet is almost solely considered in nutritional terms, without paying attention to its impact on the environment. This study examines how pre-service teachers and high school students perceive five dimensions of diet (nutritional, environmental, economic, ethical and cultural-personal), particularly focusing on environment. The research quest...
This chapter discusses the enactment of an argumentation sequence about diets in the local context of Galicia, Northwest Spain. Contextualization and place-based science learning offer a framework for the creation of meaningful learning environments, through the use of local issues. These environments hold the potential to integrate scientific prac...
This chapter discusses argumentative interactions about a socio-scientific issue with a focus on the processes of negotiation involved in building a shared argument in a decision-making context. Argumentative interactions can be seen as processes involving negotiations (Baker in The role of communication in learning to model. Lawrence Erlbaum, Mahw...
