Argument Mapping for Proof Comprehension
Page: 1427
Based on research in the field of philosophy education, argument mapping has the potential to improve student comprehension of proofs. For this poster, I will report a literature review of the current use of argument diagramming in mathematics education and in adjacent fields (like philosophy and logic) and present a study design which seeks to address the question: how does diagramming the argument of a proof impact a student’s comprehension of that proof?
