Introduction à l'étude de l'enseignement du raisonnement
et de la preuve : Les paradoxes

G. Brousseau


La première médaille Felix Klein de la Commission Internationale de l’Enseignement des Mathématiques est décernée au professeur Guy Brousseau. Cette médaille récompense la contribution essentielle que Guy Brousseau a apportée au développement de la didactique des mathématiques comme champ de recherche scientifique, à travers les travaux théoriques et expérimentaux qu’il a menés dans ce domaine pendant une quarantaine d’années.

Pour cette occasion nous presentons ce texte inédit de G. Brousseau.

ICMI Freudenthal Medal 2003

to Celia Hoyles

The first Hans Freudenthal Award of the International Commission on Mathematical Instruction (ICMI) is awarded to Professor Celia Hoyles. This distinction recognises the outstanding contribution that Celia Hoyles has made to research in the domain of technology and mathematics education, both in terms of theoretical advances and through the development and piloting of national and international projects in this field, aimed at improving through technology the mathematics education of the general population, from young children to adults in the workplace.

The Fourth Conference of the European Society for Research in Mathematics Education (CERME 4) takes place at Sant Feliu de Guíxols, Spain, on February 17 - 21, 2005. The organisers for Group 4 invite research-based papers on argumentation and proof, including epistemological and historical studies, learning issues and classroom situations. Papers for Group 4 on Argumentation and Proof should be submitted electronically by 30 September 2004, together with the submission form.

Research Conference

"A Proof Story"

Providence, Rhode Island, United States
16- 18 September 2004


Colloque:

Argumentation et disciplines scolaires

INRP Lyon
7 , 8,9 Octobre 2004

The Proof Project will hold a research conference, A "Proof Story" Across the Grades: Building a Collaborative on the Teaching and Learning of Proof in K-16 Mathematics.
The conference brings together an international group of researchers and educators to begin a research collaborative that will coordinate individual and collective research programs in the teaching and learning of mathematical proof across grades K-16. The conference is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and is the first of several such meetings to be held over the next 3 years.
La recherche INRP « Argumentation et démonstration dans les débats et discussion en classe» proposait «d'analyser quelles modifications l'introduction d'un travail argumentatif entraîne sur le régime de vérité des savoirs et sur la détermination de leurs finalités, de mieux cerner la spécificité disciplinaire et de dégager ce qui peut être transposable et transversal. Elle regroupait des équipes de plusieurs IUFM (Aquitaine,
Bourgogne, Pays de Loire, Picardie, et de l'Université de Haute-Alsace) et une équipe pluridisciplinaire de l'INRP.
Au cours de cette recherche nous avons été conduits à expliciter et à confronter des conceptions de l'argumentation issues à l'origine de réflexions menées dans le cadre de didactiques de disciplines différentes.

Plenary Conference
Structural Stability and Dynamic Geometry: some ideas on proof


Luis Moreno, Cinvestav, Mexico

Dynamic geometry environments like Cabri, allows its users to drag a figure on the screen while preserving its structural properties, that is, the properties that define the geometrical object under consideration. This is well known and has been the key to a considerable amount of research during the last years. Researchers and teachers have used the possibility of dragging a figure to design didactical approaches to organise the students' thinking leading to formal argumentation. The high level of inductive evidence provided by Cabri, mainly through dragging, constitutes a foundation stone in these approaches. But quite often, students are told "to abandon" the CabriWorld after the inductive work and are re-directed to paper and pencil mathematical reasoning. It seems to us that this attitude, implying from the side of teachers that paper and pencil is the official domain of mathematics, results in the loss of a golden opportunity.We will introduce by means of examples, a technique to show that the very important constructive inductive phase can be completed by means of a process based on macros, to produce formal proofs within the Cabri environment. This approach takes into account the rules of deduction and rigor that are intrinsic to mathematical thinking.
