Many mathematics departments have transition to proof (TTP) courses, which prepare undergraduate students for proof-oriented mathematics. Here we discuss how common TTP textbooks connect three topics ubiquitous to such courses: logic, proof techniques, and sets. In particular, we were motivated by recent research showing that focusing on sets is…
