Computer, Non-formal learning of mathematics, Pedagogy, Philosophical thought, EpistemologyAbstract
The computer graphical interface gives access to hidden mathematical reality. It is herein suggested that using experimental setups with numbers, students can think about major philosophical questions concerning reality. Furthermore, it is also proposed that such non-formal learning processes can promote common sense wisdom, developing intellectual maturity and personality during adolescence.
