Arguing in history is a research project based at the Open University and funded by the ESRC (Ref no - RES-000-22-1453). In March 2006 Year 9 pupils from two schools discussed the reasons for the rise of the Nazis within an asynchronous text based computer conference. The researchers’ aim was to explore the impact conferencing had on the development of the students’ arguing skills in history.
