“…The .csv files of the uniquely generated data can themselves be read into standard commercial statistical software, so that further exercises and analyzes can be generated for learning and teaching by using them to perform more statistical analyzes. Further details may be found in Connor et al [3].…”

Abstract. In this paper we provide an overview of the international CensusAtSchool project, designed, written and implemented first in the UK from October 2000 -April 2001 for pupils aged 7 -16 in primary and secondary schools. It has been adapted for similar aged school children in South Africa and Australia and was implemented in those countries in July and October 2001, respectively. We present our motivation, aims and objectives for carrying out such a project and show some results of analysis from the returns we have received from all three countries. Key outputs from the project include: worksheets that are suitable for enhancing data handling skills of pupils; a training course that wraps information and communications technology with data handling skills that is suitable to enhance the professional development of teachers; a raised awareness amongst pupils and teachers of the need to properly collect, present and analyze primary data; a contribution to improving the statistical numeracy and thinking skills of both teachers and pupils.

“…Para esta investigación los autores son importantes por cuanto la temática está en el contexto del trabajo de grado. Connor, Davies & Payne (2002) indican que cada vez es más frecuente la realización de estos proyectos, debido a que en el currículo de matemáticas se contempla la realización de proyectos. Estos varían desde problemas sencillos de representación de datos, hasta la comprobación de hipótesis o el uso de la simulación.…”

Este artículo da a conocer el avance de una investigación en el aula con enfoque cualitativo, que tiene como propósito desarrollar el razonamiento estadístico en niños de grado tercero de Educación Básica Primaria, mediante la estrategia de aprendizaje basado en proyectos (ABPr), a partir de un problema del contexto. En la revisión teórica y construcción de los antecedentes se reconoce la necesidad de los datos como base de la investigación estadística para comprender situaciones de la vida real. Se presenta a manera de reflexión, los resultados de la fase diagnóstica orientada a identificar los niveles iniciales de razonamiento estadístico que muestran los niños, con relación a la lectura e interpretación de tablas y gráficas estadísticas. La información analizada proviene de la aplicación de una prueba basada en una situación del contexto, un cuestionario utilizado por Ríos (2014) y una entrevista a docentes de la institución. Se encontró que los niños se ubican en los niveles de razonamiento estadístico idiosincrático y verbal según Garfield, Del Mas y Chance (1999). También se infieren algunos factores que inciden en este hallazgo, y al reconocerlos se corrobora que la estrategia planteada puede contribuir a mejorar el pensamiento aleatorio.
