I am involved in a professional development project for high school
math and science teachers. One goal is to contrast the notion of
`justification' in math and science.
1) Please suggest papers on this topic that are accessible to secondary
school math and
science teachers. (There will be a logic course for math teachers in
addition to joint workshops so treatments solely of math are relevant).
2) Does anyone know good examples of survey instrument on attitudes
towards foundations of mathematics and science that might be useful for
evaluating progress in this group?
