Abstract

In law schools, to teach argumentation skills, training for discussion is sometimes conducted. However, giving advice and evaluating each discussion takes long time. This paper introduces the overview of a discussion analysis tool. It helps instructors to analyze the discussion records by observing topic flow of the discussion and by comparing it with that of another record. This system translates the discussion records into a form of a time-sequenced speech acts and an argumentation diagram, and then calculates several features of the discussion record which are used to evaluate such a record. The overview of the system and its evaluation are introduced here.
