Lakatos-style proving activity in primary school: A mixed-methods study to explore and support teachers’ mathematical knowledge and views
Proof has long been central to mathematics and is increasingly recognised as an important element in school mathematics. This PhD research focuses on the development and refinement of conjectures based on the examination of supportive examples and counterexamples, which is a core aspect of Lakatos’ …
