Kialo
Kialo Edu is a free argument-mapping platform for educators seeking to train their students’ critical thinking and argumentation abilities.
We all share one mission: to make the world a more thoughtful place.
Launched in 2017, it has become the world’s largest argument-mapping platform for public debate. In 2019, we launched Kialo Edu (you are here 📍), a purpose-built version of our argument mapping tool for educators and their students. This has since grown to over half a million users, whose feedback and experience have helped us turn Kialo Edu into a world-leading tool for class discussion.
Academics have praised the Kialo discussion platform for its capacity to improve classroom discussions. In addition to this, we provide a wide range of teaching resources, from our pedagogy-focused blog to our library of curricular debate topics.
Kialo is an organization that values debate as a way to give young people a voice.
It is one of the world's leading providers of debate education, providing resources, training and events to educators and young people.
Kialo believes that debate promotes mutual understanding and informed citizenship around the world and that its work with young people leads to increased critical thinking and tolerance, enhanced cultural exchange and greater academic excellence.
