Peer reviewedMovshovitz-Hadar, Nitsa – For the Learning of Mathematics, 1988
Several ways to present two theorems (concerning a square matrix and a property of prime numbers) are demonstrated. One way for each theorem is more stimulating, better setting the stage for the proofs. Several methods of presenting proofs are illustrated, with the outcomes considered from the learner's viewpoint.
