However, their use in higher education is scarce and students’ acceptance is low. Considering the effectiveness of discussants in scientific conferences, this research introduces the discussant role as a teaching tool to revitalise debate in the classroom. We propose and test a model to analyse the effects of this activity on three important aspects of learning (interactivity, learning outcomes and satisfaction). We examine how these variables determine students’ attitudes towards the two roles that can be adopted in the activity (discussant or discussed) and their overall evaluation. We test the model regarding students’ expectations and perceptions in the aftermath of the activity. Results show significant relationships between interactivity, learning and satisfaction. Moreover, the three factors strongly determine attitudes and overall evaluation of the activity. Differences before and after experiencing the activity are also found. info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/DGA/S09 info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/DGA/S46 info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/UZ/PIIDUZ-15-377 info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess All rights reserved http://www.europeana.eu/rights/rr-f/ 3.0 2019 EDUCATION & EDUCATIONAL RESEARCH 30 / 263 = 0.114 2019 Q1 T1 1.836 2019 Education 2019 Q1 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/acceptedVersion (orcid)0000-0001-7805-3354 Jiménez Martínez, Julio Universidad de Zaragoza (orcid)0000-0002-8253-4713 Orús Sanclemente, Carlos Universidad de Zaragoza (orcid)0000-0002-3422-4542 Pina Pérez, José Miguel Universidad de Zaragoza 4011 095 Universidad de Zaragoza Dpto.
