This study was conducted to examine the effectiveness of proof tasks in the transition from conjecture to proof in Euclidean geometry on freshmen’s proof schemes. In line with this aim, the proof schemes of the freshmen who performed conjecture-proof and theorem-proof tasks were compared. The freshmen were composed of 109 pre-service middle school mathematics teachers who are enrolled in their first year of undergraduate education. The study was modeled as a multiple-case study. Fifty-three freshmen performed conjecture-proof tasks in Case-1, and fifty-six freshmen performed theorem-proof tasks in Case-2. The video recordings, including the written proof reports, reflection papers, and proof explanations of the freshmen, were used as data collection tools in the tasks. The proof schemes were used as construct maps to evaluate the proofs of freshmen and analyzed using Winsteps Rasch software. The proof schemes in freshmen’s proof tasks were evaluated by the Wright Map and supported with direct quotations from the proofs. In the study, it was observed that the proof schemes of freshmen who made proofs based on their own conjectures were mostly empirical and analytical proof schemes, while the proof schemes of freshmen who made proof of the presented theorem were generally external and empirical proof schemes.
