Proceedings 10th International Workshop on Theorem Proving Components for Educational Software
This addresses the challenge of improving mathematics education for secondary school students and educators by integrating computational tools, though it is incremental as part of an ongoing series.
The paper presents proceedings from the ThEdu'21 workshop, which focused on using theorem-proving technologies to support the transition from intuitive to formal mathematics in STEM education, with 7 accepted papers included.
This EPTCS volume contains the proceedings of the ThEdu'21 workshop, promoted on 11 July 2021, as a satellite event of CADE-28. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, CADE-28 and all its co-located events happened as virtual events. ThEdu'21 was a vibrant workshop, with an invited talk by Gilles Dowek (ENS Paris-Saclay), eleven contributions, and one demonstration. After the workshop an open call for papers was issued and attracted 10 submissions, 7 of which have been accepted by the reviewers, and collected in the present post-proceedings volume. The ThEdu series pursues the smooth transition from an intuitive way of doing mathematics at secondary school to a more formal approach to the subject in STEM education, while favouring software support for this transition by exploiting the power of theorem-proving technologies. The volume editors hope that this collection of papers will further promote the development of theorem-proving based software, and that it will collaborate on improving mutual understanding between computer scientists, mathematicians and stakeholders in education.
