The final, formatted version of the article will be published soon.

In the original article, there was an error. The first sentence of the abstract needs to be corrected. We delete the first few words "To address these critical gaps, although" and We add a word and a punctuation "; however" between "thinking" and "we" ** Many research studies imply that argument mapping can enhance writers' abilities in argumentation and critical thinking; however, we need to consolidate the available evidence as the first step to better understand the scope and coverage of these tools. Therefore, this paper adopts a scoping review methodology guided by the PRISMA-ScR framework. Through this systematic scoping approach, we aim to map the breadth of research on argument visualization and learning by identifying key themes and fields and highlighting gaps in empirical studies. By synthesizing existing evidence across disciplines and contexts, we hope that the scoping review will provide a foundation for future research directions, particularly in the areas of experimental validation and pedagogical design. This consolidation is especially timely given the rapid expansion of online and hybrid learning environments where such tools could provide crucial cognitive scaffolding.** We apologize for this error and we confirm that that this does not change the scientific conclusions of the article in any way. The original article has been updated.

Keywords: argument mapping, Argument visualization, cognitive benefits, Critical Thinking, reasoning, writing skills
