On Mathematics As Sense- Making: an Informalattack on the Unfortunate Divorce of Formal and Informal Mathematics
On Mathematics as Sense Making: An InformalAttack On the Unfortunate Divorce of Formal and Informal 16 Mathematics Alan H. Schoenfeld The University of California-Berkeley This chapter explores the ways that mathematics is understood and used in our culture and the role that schooling plays in shaping those mathematical under standings. One of its goals is to blur the boundaries between forma] and informal mathematics: to indicate that, in real mathematical thinking, formal and informal reasoning are deeply intertwined. I begin, however, by briefly putting on the formalist's hat and defining formal reasoning. As any formalist will tell you, it helps to know what the boundaries are before you try to blur them. PROLOGUE: ON THE LIMITS AND PURITY OF FORMAL REASONING QUA FORMAL REASONING To get to the heart of the matter, formal systems do not denote; that is, formal systems in mathematics are not about anything. Formal systems consist of sets of symbols and rules for manipulating them. As long as you play by the rules, the results are valid within the system. But if you try to apply these systems to something from the real world (or something else), you no longer engage in formal reasoning. You are applying the mathematics at that point. Caveat emp tor: the end result is only as good as the application process. Perhaps the clearest example is geometry. Insofar as most people are con cerned, the plane or solid (Euclidean) geometry studied in secondary school provides a mathematical description of the world they live in and of the way the world must be.

Mathematics in Informal Learning Environments: a Summary of the Literature
MATHEMATICS IN INFORMAL LEARNING ENVIRONMENTS: A SUMMARY OF THE LITERATURE Scott Pattison, Andee Rubin, Tracey Wright Updated March 2017 Research on mathematical reasoning and learning has long been a central part of the classroom and formal education literature (e.g., National Research Council, 2001, 2005). However, much less attention has been paid to how children and adults engage with and learn about math outside of school, including everyday settings and designed informal learning environments, such as interactive math exhibits in science centers. With the growing recognition of the importance of informal STEM education (National Research Council, 2009, 2015), researchers, educators, and policymakers are paying more attention to how these experiences might support mathematical thinking and learning and contribute to the broader goal of ensuring healthy, sustainable, economically vibrant communities in this increasingly STEM-rich world. To support these efforts, we conducted a literature review of research on mathematical thinking and learning outside the classroom, in everyday settings and designed informal learning environments. This work was part of the NSF-funded Math in the Making project, led by TERC and the Institute for Learning Innovation and designed to advance researchers’ and educators’ understanding of how to highlight and enhance the mathematics in making experiences.1 Recognizing that the successful integration of mathematics and making requires an understanding of how individuals engage with math in these informal learning environments, we gathered and synthesized the informal mathematics education literature, with the hope that findings would support the Math in the Making project and inform the work of mathematics researchers and educators more broadly.

Introduction An axiomatic theory consists of a distinguished set of propositions called axioms and an- other set of propositions called theorems, which are deduced from the axioms according to certain rules of inference. Such rules are supposed to be truth-preserving in the following sense: as far as the axioms are true the theorems derived from these axioms are also true. Further, these rules are supposed to be not specific for any given theory: one assumes that the same set of rules of inference applies in all axiomatic theories (logical monism) or at least that any complete set of such rules applies in some large class of theories (logical pluralism). These basic features of the rules of inference can be briefly expressed by saying that those rules are the rules of logical inference. A logical inference of a given theorem from the axioms (possibly through a number of intermediate propositions) is called a proof of this theorem. Here is how this core notion of axiomatic theory is described by Hilbert in his famous address \Axiomatic Thought" delivered before the Swiss Mathematical Society in Zurich in 1917: 1 2 ANDREI RODIN If we consider a particular theory more closely, we always see that a few distinguished propositions of the field of knowledge underlie the construc- tion of the framework of concepts, and these propositions then suffice by themselves for the construction, in accordance with logical principles, of the entire framework.

Proofs employ logic but usually include some amount of natural language which of course admits some ambiguity. In fact, the vast majority of proofs in written mathematics can be considered as applications of informal logic. The distinction has led to much Iexamination of current and historical mathematical practice, quasi-empiricism in mathematics. One of the concerns with the philosophy of mathematics is the role of language and logic in proofs, and mathematics as a language. Regardless of one’s attitude to formalism, the result that is proved to be true is a theorem; in a completely formal proof it would be the final word, and the complete proof shows how it follows from the axioms alone.

Benacerraf's Dilemma and Informal Mathematics
THE REVIEW OF SYMBOLIC LOGIC Volume 2, Number 4, December 2009 BENACERRAF’S DILEMMA AND INFORMAL MATHEMATICS GREGORY LAVERS Department of Philosophy, Concordia University Abstract. This paper puts forward and defends an account of mathematical truth, and in par- ticular an account of the truth of mathematical axioms. The proposal attempts to be completely nonrevisionist. In this connection, it seeks to satisfy simultaneously both horns of Benacerraf’s dilemma. The account builds upon Georg Kreisel’s work on informal rigour. Kreisel defends the view that axioms are arrived at by a rigorous examination of our informal notions, as opposed to being stipulated or arrived at by trial and error. This view is then supplemented by a Fregean account of the objectivity and our knowledge of abstract objects. It is then argued that the resulting view faces no insurmountable metaphysical or epistemic obstacles. §1. Introduction. Benacerraf’s (1973) paper ‘Mathematical truth’ presents a problem with which any position in the philosophy of mathematics must come to terms. Benacerraf’s paper is often seen as presenting a dilemma where common sense seems to pull in opposite directions. Common sense with respect to the truth and the syntactical form of mathematical statements leads us to conclude that mathematical propositions concern abstract objects. At the same time, common sense with respect to epistemology seems to imply that mathematical propositions cannot concern abstract objects. It is quite generally accepted that no existing position on the philosophy of mathematics is completely adequate in its handling of the Benacerraf dilemma. It is the goal of this paper to show that a position on the philosophy of mathematics that will strike most practicing mathematicians as very natural can aptly handle the Benacerraf challenge.

Namkung, PhD1 , Peng Peng, PhD1, J. Marc Goodrich, PhD1, and Victoria Molfese, PhD2 Abstract Growth in two subscales, Informal and Formal Mathematics Skills, of the Test of Early Mathematics Abilitity–3 (TEMA-3) was explored in a sample of 281 children. Children were identified as either typically developing (TYP; n = 205) or having mathematics difficulties (MD; n = 76) based on their total TEMA-3 score at the end of prekindergarten. Their average level of informal and formal mathematics skills, growth rate over time, and rate of acceleration of growth were estimated using conventional growth modeling while controlling for the effects of gender. Results indicated that children with MD had significantly lower informal and formal mathematics knowledge than did TYP children at the end of kindergarten. However, for informal mathematics skills, children with MD grew at a significantly faster rate than did TYP children, and the rate of acceleration was also significantly faster for children with MD. In contrast, both the rate of growth and acceleration of growth in formal mathematics

A Formal System for Euclid's Elements
THE REVIEW OF SYMBOLIC LOGIC Volume 2, Number 4, December 2009 A FORMAL SYSTEM FOR EUCLID’S ELEMENTS JEREMY AVIGAD Department of Philosophy and Department of Mathematical Sciences, Carnegie Mellon University EDWARD DEAN Department of Philosophy, Carnegie Mellon University JOHN MUMMA Division of Logic, Methodology, and Philosophy of Science, Suppes Center for History and Philosophy of Science Abstract. We present a formal system, E, which provides a faithful model of the proofs in Euclid’s Elements, including the use of diagrammatic reasoning. §1. Introduction. For more than two millennia, Euclid’s Elements was viewed by mathematicians and philosophers alike as a paradigm of rigorous argumentation. But the work lost some of its lofty status in the nineteenth century, amidst concerns related to the use of diagrams in its proofs. Recognizing the correctness of Euclid’s inferences was thought to require an “intuitive” use of these diagrams, whereas, in a proper mathemat- ical argument, every assumption should be spelled out explicitly. Moreover, there is the question as to how an argument that relies on a single diagram can serve to justify a general mathematical claim: any triangle one draws will, for example, be either acute, right, or obtuse, leaving the same intuitive faculty burdened with the task of ensuring that the argument is equally valid for all triangles.1 Such a reliance on intuition was therefore felt to fall short of delivering mathematical certainty. Without denying the importance of the Elements, by the end of the nineteenth century the common attitude among mathematicians and philosophers was that the appropriate logical analysis of geometric inference should be cast in terms of axioms and rules of inference.
