What role does argumentation play in group work? What does it accomplish and how?
The ability to question the validity of a decision for the purpose of increasing the effectiveness of the groups decisions is essential to the success of the group. These discussions while many times done through open conversation can be furthered along by the use of argumentation. Often seen as a negative aspect of group work argumentation can be used as a positive tool in group work for the purpose of vetting a decision and establishing the validity of the outcomes.
Argumentation, when not used for personal attacks on group members, can be a very useful and constructive tool for group work.
