Extension of an Argument Curriculum to an Academically Disadvantaged Middle-School Population
The purpose of this project is to develop and test an intervention intended to support the acquisition of higher order cognitive skills, specifically the generation and critique of arguments. The intervention will provide explicit practice for middle school students in the process of generating arguments and rebuttals, assessing critiques, and responding with counterarguments. These activities are expected to lead to improvements in analytical thinking and writing skills.
