Abstract | Provides an historical account of how proving evolved in school geometry. Explains how the two-column proof format brought stability to the course of studies in geometry. Uncovers what the nature of school geometry came to be as a result of the emphasis on student learning. Draws connections between that century-old reform and current reform emphases on reasoning and proof. (Author/KHR) |
