| Abstract | We combined the phases of the van Hiele theory with the methods of Cognitive Apprenticeship and enriched these combinations adding the three following ideas: (a) a special worksheet, named Structured Form Worksheet, which we used when teaching geometry (SFW), (b) a matrix named Reasoning Control Matrix for the Proving Process (RECOMPP), which helped students with reasoning production and (c) the concepts of simple and partial proof to write the formal proof. We called the above mentioned combination Model of p-m Combinations. Then, we used this model to teach geometry courses to 15-year old senior high school (Lyceum) students. In this article we claim that students should be able to write simple and partial proofs before they are taught how to write formal proofs. |
