Logic and Semantic Technologies for Computer Science Education

Description

We report on some projects to develop software rooted in formal logic and semantics in order to enhance education in computer science and mathematics. The goal is to let students actively engage with the course material by solving concrete problems where the correctness of a solution is automatically checked; furthermore, if a solution is not correct or the student gets stuck, the software shall provide additional insight and hints that aid the student towards the desired result. In particular, we describe our experience with the RISCAL software, a model checker for mathematical theories and algorithms, in university courses on logic, formal methods, and formal modeling.
