摘要：Debate learning is known as an effective method for cultivating critical thinking learning. However, debate learning requires much time for application in an actual classroom. This report describes a critical thinking program that includes debate learning with an internet-based debate support system. The proposed program was applied during periods of integrated learning in the first semester of 2008 with 428 third grade students of a Japanese high school. Its capability of cultivating critical thinking attitudes was evaluated. Results show that participants' critical thinking attitudes of objectivity and good faith were improved, but improvement of inquiry consciousness (inquisitiveness) was slight.
