                  on Friday, March 27, 2009, ALL DAY
                     CSLI, Cordura Hall room 100

                 "A day of events on Logic Education,
         Heterogeneous Reasoning and Educational Data Mining"
     http://ggww2.stanford.edu/GUS/openproof/openproofday2009.jsp

Openproof Day is a day of events presenting the work of CSLI's
Openproof Project.  Since the early 1980's we have been developing
innovative and effective courseware packages for logic education such
as Tarski's World, Turing's World, Hyperproof and Language, Proof and
Logic.  This work has led us to research in heterogeneous reasoning,
and education data mining.  Topics will include:

- Existing courseware packages including plans for future improvements
  John Etchemendy and Dave Barker-Plummer (CSLI, Stanford)

- Kripke's World, a new courseware package for teaching modal logic
  Eric Pacuit (Stanford),

- Recent research in data mining student work in logic
  Richard Cox (University of Sussex),

- Panel discussion on the use of the Language, Proof and Logic
  courseware packages
  S. Marc Cohen (University of Washington),
  Holly Groover (University of South Carolina),
  Cindy Stern (California State University, Northridge)

Attendance is free and open to the public.  Please let us know in
advance if you plan to attend by sending mail to dbp@stanford.edu.
Additional information will be posted on the web site (URL above)
as it becomes available.
