THedu'18 Scope:

  Computer Theorem Proving is becoming a paradigm as well as a
technological base for a new generation of educational software in
science, technology, engineering and mathematics. The workshop brings
together experts in automated deduction with experts in education in
order to further clarify the shape of the new software generation and to
discuss existing systems.

Invited Talk

  Julien Narboux, University of Strasbourg, France

Important Dates

 * Extended Abstracts:  15th April 2018
 * Author Notification: 15th May 2018
 * Workshop Day:        18 July 2018


Topics of interest include:

 * methods of automated deduction applied to checking students' input;
 * methods of automated deduction applied to prove post-conditions for
particular problem solutions;
 * combinations of deduction and computation enabling systems to propose
next steps;
 * automated provers specific for dynamic geometry systems;
 * proof and proving in mathematics education.

Submission

  We welcome submission of extended abstracts and demonstration
proposals presenting original unpublished work which is not been
submitted for publication elsewhere.
 
  All accepted extended abstracts and demonstrations will be presented
at the workshop. The extended abstracts will be made available online.
 
  Extended abstracts and demonstration proposals should be submitted via
easychair, https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=thedu18 formatted
according to http://www.easychair.org/publications/easychair.zip
 
  Extended abstracts and demonstration proposals should be approximately
5 pages in length and are to be submitted in PDF format.
 
  At least one author of each accepted extended abstract/demonstration
proposal is expected to attend THedu'18 and presents his/her extended
abstract/demonstration.
