RISCO-DEL VALLE, Eduardo German. About Argumentative Training in the Chilean Educational System. Folios [online]. 2018, n.48, pp.85-99. ISSN 0123-4870.

This paper aims, from an academic perspective, but also from the author's experience as a Professor of Spanish in Secondary Education, to give an overview of the teaching of argumentation in the Chilean educational system and to provide some conceptual subsidies that contribute to assessing that same education. The communication is organized in three sections: an approach to the relevance of argumentation in civic education, the presentation of some basic concepts about argumentation, and, finally, a description of the way this content is presented in the official texts of the Ministry of Education of Chile (Teacher Training Standards and Middle School Study Programs), especially emphasizing the conceptual silences of relevant aspects of the argumentative theory. This work ends with a set of conclusions that show the contrast between the relevance that the Ministry assigns to argumentative training and the meager means placed at the service of teachers to carry it out.

Palabras clave : argumentation; training standards; study programs.
