Mathematics Learning and the Development of General Deductive Reasoning

چکیده
This study aims to examine the approaches of people involved in mathematics education and logic to the role played by learning mathematics in the development of general deductive reasoning. The data source includes 21 individual semistructured interviews. Analysis based on the Grounded Theory method identified three distinct groups of interviewees with relation to views of (a) the meaning of deductive reasoning, (b) the relationships between logical rules inside and outside mathematics, (c) the aspects of deductive reasoning that can be developed through learning mathematics, and (d) the likelihood of mathematics learning to develop deductive reasoning.

It has been shown that learners' abilities interact with the type of training intervention and effect on training and its outcomes. For this reason, the current research investigated the interaction of reasoning ability with two training methods, namely deductive and empirical methods, in effect on reaction to training evaluation and post training effectiveness. This research was an applied an...
