Abstract

The use of Formal Methods (FMs) offers rigour and precision, while reducing ambiguity and inconsistency. The major barriers hindering the adoption of FMs in industry are the problems of understandability, comprehensibility, and scalability. To solve the understandability problem, from one side, the readability of the method have to be increased, but from another side, an appropriate teaching and learning approach have to be introduced. This paper presents an overview of existing approaches on teaching of FMs and Logic, also discusses the common issues in teaching of this subjects.
