Propuesta para la enseñanza de tablas de frecuencia y gráficas en el área de estadística con instrumentos para la evaluación

Abstract

The purpose of the present paper is to develop the teaching of frequency tables and graphics in the statistic class with some aspects regarding teaching methods, techniques, and tests. The participants were local 10º EGB and 1º BGU grade students. The instruments used were questionnaires and interviews. The data analysis found out that the teacher lacks of different teaching methodologies and techniques in the class topic. Moreover, the approach used in the class was teacher-centered that lacked students’ significative learning. The data field helped with some ideas to develop a teaching guide about the class topic with a constructivist focus. The guides had 11 planned classes with different teaching methods and techniques. Likewise, each class has its own specific evaluation instrument regarding the activity. Finally, it is expected that the teaching guides help to improve the teaching of frequency tables and graphics, and more importantly to motivate the teaching process.
