Gueudet, Ghislaine – International Journal of Research in Undergraduate Mathematics Education, 2017
Mathematics teachers interact with resources of various kinds in their work in and out of class. The documentational approach of didactics is a theoretical approach that has been elaborated to investigate these interactions and their consequences in terms of teachers' practice and teachers' beliefs in particular. According to this approach, using…

Alcock, Lara; Inglis, Matthew – Educational Studies in Mathematics, 2008
This paper discusses variation in reasoning strategies among expert mathematicians, with a particular focus on the degree to which they use examples to reason about general conjectures. We first discuss literature on the use of examples in understanding and reasoning about abstract mathematics, relating this to a conceptualisation of syntactic and…
