Palla, Marina; Potari, Despina; Spyrou, Panagiotis – International Journal of Science and Mathematics Education, 2012
In this study, we investigate the meaning students attribute to the structure of mathematical induction (MI) and the process of proof construction using mathematical induction in the context of a geometric recursion problem. Two hundred and thirteen 17-year-old students of an upper secondary school in Greece participated in the study. Students'…
