The linguistic features of proof are more than just a random collection of words and phrases; they also serve as powerful ways for conveying disciplinary meanings and practices. As such, access to proof as a genre of text can operate to equip or exclude students in mathematics classrooms. In this chapter, we introduce a heuristic organization of language resources to frame various avenues for researching proof as a genre of text. We examine a variety of linguistic features that are ripe for further investigation as well as outline some methods and theoretical tools that could contribute to advancing research on the proof genre.

摘要

The linguistic features of proof are more than just a random collection of words and phrases; they also serve as powerful ways for conveying disciplinary meanings and practices. As such, access to proof as a genre of text can operate to equip or exclude students in mathematics classrooms. In this chapter, we introduce a heuristic organization of language resources to frame various avenues for researching proof as a genre of text. We examine a variety of linguistic features that are ripe for further investigation as well as outline some methods and theoretical tools that could contribute to advancing research on the proof genre.
