Abstract
Compression of mathematical objects, procedures and statements could play a major role in successful
problem solving. We report on a study in which we aim to design an instrument, named heuristic tree,
to stimulate the process of compression in students while working in a digital problem-solving
environment. In particular, we report on the evidence a second pilot study provided that improvements
in the design helped to overcome issues with help-seeking that presented themselves in a first pilot.
