Argumentation and proof

Topic Group 4 to the CERME 4 Conference

Mariotti M. A., Knipping C.,
Küchemann D., Nordstrom K.

During CERME 4Conference the topics proposed in the Working Group 4 "Argumentation and Proof", were the following:
1) Theme 1: The meaning of proof in mathematics education
2) Theme 2: Comparing the teaching of proof at school
3) Theme 3: Problems and Conjecturing

Proof in Elementary Geometry

Geoff G.
This is a book edited by Derby: The Association of Teachers of Mathematics.
In this book, the author claims that 'seeing is believing' and using powerful images to provide convincing reasons for the truth of many theorems in geometry. Students are more concerned with memorising proof rather than being convinced by them. Using a 'tracing' on top of a 'diagram' we can often show clearly the truth of assertion. In other words: we can prove it.

La démarche de découverte expérimentalement médiée par Cabri-Géomètre en mathématiques: un essai de formalisation à partir de l'analyse de démarches de résolutions de problèmes de boîtes-noires

Jacques DAHAN

Université Joseph-Fourier, Grenoble 1

Dans ce travail de recherche, nous nous intéressons à l'étude de la notion de négation et notamment celle des énoncés renfermant une quantification universelle dans un contexte scolaire tunisien dans lequel l'enseignement des mathématiques se fait d'abord en arabe ensuite en français.

Pour en savoir plus ...

Notre travail est centré sur la démarche de découverte reposant sur des expérimentations réalisées avec Cabri-Géomètre. L'analyse de la résolution d'une boîte noire particulière permet d'affiner notre modèle a priori de la démarche de découverte en y précisant le rôle de la figure (Duval), les niveaux de géométrie (praxéologies G1 et G2 de Parzysz) et leurs prolongements que nous développons (G1 et G2 informatiques), les cadres d'investigations (Millar) et la place de la preuve expérimentale (Johsua).
