Proof Practices and Constructs of Advanced Mathematics Students.
Coe, Robert; Ruthven, Kenneth
British Educational Research Journal, v20 n1 p41-53 1994
Examines the proof practices and constructs of a group of students educated with a "post-Cockcroft" mathematics curriculum. Finds that although students are actively involved in developing mathematical ideas, it is within a restricted mode in which ideas of inquiry have become largely instrumentalized. Contains 17 references. (Author/ASK)
