Why Proof Planning for Maths Education and How?

Artificial Intelligence techniques have massively been applied for Intelligent Tutor systems (ITS), e.g., user modeling, error diagnosis, user adaptation, knowledge representation, and dialog techniques. In this paper, I will argue in favor of the application of another AI-technique in ITS, namely of proof planning, a methodology from automated theorem proving.
