This paper discusses ongoing work to build an argumentation inquiry learning system, GAIL. The purpose of GAIL is to support students in constructing scientific arguments in an undergraduate genetics course in order to facilitate deeper learning and improve argumentation skill. Students can construct argument diagrams using a drag-and-drop graphical user interface. The system constructs arguments on-the-fly to use as a knowledge source for evaluating the learners' arguments and providing intelligent feedback.
