In this paper we classify student’s proving level and design an interactive help system (IHS) corresponding with these levels in order to investigate the development of the proving process within a dynamic geometry environment. This help system was also used to provide tertiary students with a strategy for proving and to improve their proving levels. The open-ended questions and explorative tasks in the IHS make a contribution to support students’ learning of proving, especially during the processes of realizing invariants, formulating conjectures, producing arguments, and writing proofs. This research wants to react on the well-known students’ difficulties in writing a formal proof. The hypothesis of this work is that these difficulties are based on the lack of students’ understanding the relationship between argumentation and proof. Therefore, we used Toulmin model to analyze student’s argumentation structure and examine the role of abduction in writing a deductive proof. Furthermore, this paper also provides mathematics teachers with three basic conditions for understanding the development of the proving process and teaching strategies for assisting their students in constructing formal proofs.

The hermeneutic analysis of the cultural context is the investigation of the interpretation of media texts, cultural and historical factors influencing the views of the media agency / author and the audience’s point of view. The hermeneutic analysis of media text comprehension involves a comparison of the cultural tradition and reality, insight into the logic of a media text, media text analysis through comparison of artistic images in historical and cultural contexts. Thus, the object of the analysis is the media system and its functioning in the society, the interaction with the person, the media language and its use. This article uses the film of Alexander Muratov and Nikolay Rasheev "The Little School Orchestra" (1968) as an example of the hermeneutic analysis of media texts in student audience.
