This study aims to discover the varied opinions of high school students about proof and mathematical proving. Accordingly, the research is carried out on 136 high school students studying at all grades of in a high school in the Erzurum during 2014-2015 academic year. Data were collected and prepared by researchers in the three open-ended questions with data collection tool.
