Propositional Logic Word Problems and MS Excel at Primary and Secondary Education
Original language description
It seems that propositional logic word problems are interesting for pupils aged 9 to 16 years. Younger pupils usually solve the propositional logic word problems by means of the systematic analysis of possible cases. In this way they significantly develop their combinatorial skills. Nevertheless, we can solve the propositional logic word problems almost automatically using logical connectives and truth tables. Moreover, there are software applications for solving problems of mathematical logic. For example, MS Excel can help to work with the truth table. We carried out research with the aid of a questionnaire to find out the preparedness of prospective elementary teachers to use MS Excel for solving propositional logic word problems. In our paper we show some examples of propositional logic word problems for pupils of different ages. In our opinion, using MS Excel for solving propositional logic word problems can make such word problems even more attractive.
