“…Regardless of whether the participants are mathematics students, from different disciplines, or pre-service teachers, it is seen that their proving skills in different learning areas (AN, GEO, ENT, MIX) are either on average or they are not at a sufficient level or so on (e.g., Cusi & Malara, 2007;Nagel et al, 2018;Oflaz et al, 2019;Pala & Narlı, 2018;Sen & Guler, 2015;Sevgi & Orman, 2020;Sevimli, 2018;Tossavainen, 2009). It is seen that students in terms of verifying a mathematical result (e.g., Aydoğdu Iskenderoğlu, 2003), and pre-service teachers in terms of how the validity of proofs are evaluated (e.g., Uygan et al, 2014) generally have reasoning close to the empirical proof scheme in the ALG-GEO and GEO, respectively.…”
