Abstract
Argumentation is a key research area within CSCL. Yet, while many empirical
studies investigating the educational benefits of various forms of collaborative argumentation
have been conducted, there has not been much work done towards developing generic and
reusable software architectures for collaborative argumentation that have the potential to
reduce the development time for argumentation learning systems. This paper proposes a
general architecture for intelligently supported collaborative argumentation systems.
