Aspects of scaffolding in a web-based learning system for congruency-based proofs in geometry
This paper focuses on the pedagogical underpinnings of the design of a web-based learning support system for lower secondary school pupils who are just beginning to learn how to tackle deductive proving in geometry. In particular, we explain how the key features of our web-based system can scaffold learners’ learning of congruency-based proofs in geometry.

Abstract

This paper focuses on the pedagogical underpinnings of the design of a web-based learning support system for lower secondary school pupils who are just beginning to learn how to tackle deductive proving in geometry. In particular, we explain how the key features of our web-based system can scaffold learners’ learning of congruency-based proofs in geometry.
