Abstract

We present our experiences teaching two courses on formal methods and detail the contents of the courses and their positioning in the curriculum. The first course is a bachelor course on logical systems and logic programming, with a focus on classical first-order logic and automatic theorem proving. The second course is a master course on automated reasoning, with a focus on classical higher-order logic and interactive theorem proving. The proof assistant Isabelle is used in both courses, using Isabelle/Pure as well as Isabelle/HOL. We describe our online tools to be used with Isabelle/HOL, in particular the Sequent Calculus Verifier (SeCaV) and the Natural Deduction Assistant (NaDeA). We also describe our innovative Students’ Proof Assistant which is formally verified in Isabelle/HOL and integrated in Isabelle/jEdit using Isabelle/ML.
