The first mathematical symbols for arbitrary quantities appeared much later (beginning in the fifth and fourth centuries B.C.) in Greece. Quantities (areas, volumes, angles) were rep-resented in the form of segments, and the products of two arbitrary like quantities were given in the form of...
Perhaps later might come an appreciation of mathematical objects with inconsistent properties, as the truthmakers for preferred mathematical propositions, and a basis for model theory. But this metaphysical extra is certainly not necessary to make a beginning with. Hence, our starting point is ...
A beginning student of mathematics may prefer to assume that A is true and try to discover what else is then true — a sort of one-directional approach. But a proof by contradiction works simultaneously in two directions, mixing together statements (such as A and its consequences) that we ...

Actually, bringing us almost back to the beginning of this talk, it’s a bit like what’s happened for thousands of years in geometry. In geometry we know how to say things with diagrams. That’s been done since the Babylonians. And a little more than a hundred years ago, it became...
Speiser and Walter (2015) This article provided a discussion of a concrete case in mathematical reasoning, in which a group of learners made sense of fraction division, beginning with a specific, concrete problem that demanded fresh insight. To meet the challenge, several education undergraduates, ...
