PARTICIPATING IN THE LEARNING OF GROUP THEORY

Pages 304-316 | Published online: 13 Aug 2007
 

ABSTRACT

Focusing on student learning rather than the deductive presentation of mathematics is a stimulus not only to 'discover' theorems and proofs but also to generate the meaning of definitions and axioms before their formed articulation. Worksheets are provided that will enable an intuitive grasp to precede formal definition in the field of elementary group theory for groups, subgroups, isomorphism, cosets and normal subgroups.
