Generating mathematical knowledge in the classroom through proof, refutation, and abductive reasoning

HIGHLIGHTS

  • who: Kotaro Komatsu from the Faculty of Human Sciences, University of Tsukuba, Ibaraki, Japan have published the Article: Generating mathematical knowledge in the classroom through proof, refutation, and abductive reasoning, in the Journal: (JOURNAL)
  • what: The authors focus on this kind of interplay between proving and refuting-specifically, the notion of heuristic refutation that Komatsu and Jones employed from Lakatos and de Villiers to refer to mathematical activity involving the discovery of counterexamples to conjectures/proofs and the revision of the conjectures/proofs by addressing such counterexamples. Jones K. contribute to the literature on abduction . . .
