Résumé anglais It is restrictive to introduce the arguing activity as a set of rhetorical techniques meant to convince others of a pre-established proposition in such a way that the speakers come up against one another. Whether it concerns theoretical discussions or ordinary dialogues, this activity often has the exploratory and constructive dimension of a joint investigation. A conjoined logico-discursive action on the topics of speech and on the points of view is therefore fundamental. According to this outlook, a discussion in a school environment, in a position of shared action aimed at building knowledge is analysed by pointing the indicators which enable to determine this dynamics : the referential shifts in the meaning of terms, the changes of semiotics modes and relevance levels, the modalisations, the emergence of a problematical dimension to speech.
