Expert mathematicians use examples and visual representations as part of their informal mathematics reasoning when constructing proofs. In contrast, the ways undergraduates reason and work toward creating proofs is an open area of investigation, particularly in advanced mathematics. Furthermore, research on students' reasoning in topology is…
