DUNES - Dialogic and argUmentative Negotiation Educational Software
A Research & Development project sponsored by
Submitted to the EC under action line IST-2001-5.1.8 / CPA8 ("eLearning for European youth in a digital age")
Contract No.: IST-2001-34153 - Project start: March 1st, 2002
Project abstract
In tomorrow's learning and working environments, people will be increasingly involved in tasks within multidisciplinary, multicultural and physically distributed teams. The participation to such tasks puts heavy demands on the individual for which he/she is not usually prepared. Informal reasoning (cognitive) skills and social skills of collaboration are not duly exploited, as practices, from school to university, very poorly address their acquisition.
The DUNES project will result in a novel methodology and advanced software tools to enable collaborative learning and the acquisition of "soft skills" through Internet-mediated discussion, argumentation and social interaction.The project will involve broad implementation, testing and validation in a "large-scale experiment", to be carried out by many players in formal and informal learning environments and workplaces throughout Europe.
