Argumentation and proof Group 4 to CERME 3 Conference The Third Conference of the European Society for Research in Mathematics Education (CERME 3) takes place at Bellaria , Italy, from February 28th to March 3rd, 2003. CERME is a conference organized by the European Society for Research in Education, and is designed to foster a communicative spirit. It deliberately and distinctively moves away from research presentations by individuals towards collaborative group work. Its main feature is to be a number of thematic groups whose members will work together in a common research area. This message refers to one, Group 4, of 12 such groups. We will have 12 hours over four days in which to meet and progress
our work on Argumentation and proof. Submitted papers will be peer-reviewed,
as far as possible chosen from the group of participants in Group 4.
The process will NOT be blind review. If you submit a paper to Group
4, you are likely to be asked to review one or more papers. Please indicate
when submitting a paper if you think this is inappropriate. The organisers for Group 4 invite research-based papers on argumentation and proof, including epistemological and historical studies, learning issues and classroom situations. We will be particularly interested in theoretical, empirical or developmental papers that address one or more of the following themes (though any papers of relevance to the overall focus of the group will also be considered):
These issues will be considered from the following points of view:
We wish to encourage papers from researchers world-wide. Papers for Group 4 on Argumentation and Proof should be submitted electronically by September 15th, 2002, to Rudolf vom Hofe (vom.hofe@mathematik.uni-regensburg.de), together with the submission form. This form and details of format for papers are given on the CERME3 web site (see above for URL). If you have further questions, please contact any of the leaders of the group (email addresses are given below).
The questions and the suggestions about the organisation of this group can be discussed in the Forum. Subscribe to Preuvinfo. |
