Easyprove: a tool for teaching precise reasoning

چکیده

Teaching precise mathematical reasoning can be very hard. It is very easy for a student to make a subtle mistake in a proof which invalidates it, but it is often hard for the teacher to pinpoint and explain the problem in the (often chaotically written) student’s proof. We present Easyprove, an interactive proof assistant aimed at first year computer science students and high school students, intended as a supplementary tool for teaching logical reasoning. The system is a Web application with a natural, mouse-oriented user interface. 1998 ACM Subject Classification F.4.1 Mathematical Logic

We argue that this pedagogical approach is a good alternative to the use of Boolean algebra for teaching reasoning, especially for computer scientists and formal methods practioners.
