Abstract
- The article discusses topic related to the particulars of proofblocks. It explains that among the difficult topics in geometry includes the concept of proof. It discusses the intuitive approach of teaching proof, which is the proofblock, that makes proof accessible to students without sacrificing the rigor of traditional approaches. It denotes that with the use of ProofBlock, the student will be able to find it natural from both ends of their attempted proof. It also mentions that ProofBlock is an inherently visual approach which uses manipulative that addresses the need of visual and kinesthetic learners.
