Abstract

How argumentation in the context of Science education is the object of study of different research studies on communication, learning and thought development processes is illustrated in this article. Taking into consideration the present purposes of Science education, it is important to consider argumentation as a current and highly promising investigation line in this area of knowledge. Similarly, it is necessary to consider Stephen Toulmin’s contributions to the philosophical proposal as well as their value for innovation in the Science learning-teaching process in the XXI Century. Similarly, the relationship between social constructivism and argumentation, which considers learning as a knowledge construction process is shown. In the same way, some proposals on how argumentation promotes outcomes such as knowledge of Natural Sciences and development of citizenship skills are presented. Finally, some design principles to promote argumentation are included.
