Mariotti, Maria Alessandra; Pedemonte, Bettina – ZDM: The International Journal on Mathematics Education, 2019
The cognitive relationship between intuition and proof is complex and often students struggle when they need to find mathematical justifications to explain what appears as self-evident. In this paper, we address this complexity in the specific case of open geometrical problems that ask for a conjecture and its proof. We analyze four meaningful…
