Abstract

This paper explores the role of proof in mathematics education and provides justification for its importance in the curriculum. It also discusses three applications of dynamic geometry software - heuristics, exploration and visualization - as valuable tools in the teaching of proof and as potential challenges to the importance of proof. Finally, it introduces the four papers in this issue that present empirical research on the use of dynamic geometry software.
