My triangular (in-progress) map

The domain I'd like to researh in lays on the cross of two fields: computer-supported-learning and argumentation. Here below is illustrated the process from which arised my (starting) research question.

- G. Conole (sociological aspects in the use of c-s lerning tools + CompendiumLD project)
- F. van Eeemeren and E. Rigotti (argumentation theory, particularly Pragma-Dialectic and fallacies)

communities: - ISSA (International Society for the Study of Argumentation)
- human-centered technology research fields, particularly: CSAV (Computer Supported Argument Visualization), CSCW, CMC, CSCL

conferences: - from June 29 to July 2, 2010, the 7th Conference on Argumentation
- EC-TEL 2009
- Ed-Media 2009/E-Learn 2009
