This paper highlights the pedagogical importance of gaps in mathematical proofs to foster students' learning of proofs. We use the notion of 'gap-filling' (Perry & Sternberg, 1986) from literary theory to analyze a task based on a Proof Without Words, which epitomizes the notion of gaps. We demonstrate how students fill in gaps in this…
