Direct linkFeurzeig, Wallace; Papert, Seymour A. – Interactive Learning Environments, 2011
Formal mathematical methods remain, for most high school students, mysterious, artificial and not a part of their regular intuitive thinking. The authors develop some themes that could lead to a radically new approach. According to this thesis, the teaching of programming languages as a regular part of academic progress can contribute effectively…

Peer reviewedGinat, David – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2001
Presents an approach for illustrating, on an intuitive level, the significance of loop invariants for algorithm design and analysis. The illustration is based on mathematical games that require the exploration of regularities via problem-solving heuristics. (Author/MM)
