Book cover: Proofs in MathematicsProofs in Mathematics
by - Interactive Mathematics Miscellany and Puzzles ,
I'll distinguish between two broad categories. The first is characterized by simplicity. In the second group the proofs will be selected mainly for their charm. Most of the proofs in this book should be accessible to a middle grade school student.

Book cover: How To Write ProofsHow To Write Proofs
by - California State University, Fresno ,
Proofs are the heart of mathematics. What is the secret? The short answer is: there is no secret, no mystery, no magic. All that is needed is some common sense and a basic understanding of a few trusted and easy to understand techniques.

Book cover: An Inquiry-Based Introduction to ProofsAn Inquiry-Based Introduction to Proofs
by - Saint Michael's College ,
Introduction to Proofs is a Free undergraduate text. It is inquiry-based, sometimes called the Moore method or the discovery method. It consists of a sequence of exercises, statements for students to prove, along with a few definitions and remarks.

Book cover: A Gentle Introduction to the Art of MathematicsA Gentle Introduction to the Art of Mathematics
by - Southern Connecticut State University ,
The point of this book is to help you with the transition from doing math at an elementary level (concerned mostly with solving problems) to doing math at an advanced level (which is much more concerned with axiomatic systems and proving statements).

Book cover: A Introduction to Proofs and the Mathematical VernacularA Introduction to Proofs and the Mathematical Vernacular
by - Virginia Tech ,
The book helps students make the transition from freshman-sophomore calculus to more proof-oriented upper-level mathematics courses. Another goal is to train students to read more involved proofs they may encounter in textbooks and journal articles.
