Uma proposta metodologica para a aprendizagem: reflexao sobre as praticas pedagogicas da Estatistica ao elaborar os instrumentos de pesquisa sociais

TL;DR

This paper proposes a pedagogical approach that emphasizes student-centered learning in statistics, using software and models to enhance understanding and motivation in teaching statistical concepts.

Contribution

It introduces a methodological framework for teaching statistics that integrates practical activities, software, and modeling to improve student engagement and comprehension.

Findings

Students showed positive attitudes towards the methodological strategies.

The approach motivated students and clarified concepts in Mathematical Modeling.

The study demonstrated the effectiveness of active, software-based learning in statistics education.

Abstract

Presents a differentiated teaching proposal that allows the student to be the agent in the construction of knowledge, overcoming the difficulties that Mathematics presents. Aiming to understand how the use of statistical tools can contribute to the improvement of the teaching-learning process and the construction of statistical knowledge, studied with students from the University Campus of Rondonopolis/UFMT. In order to reach the proposed objective, an analysis was carried out about the didactic activities in the teaching of basic statistics in which a qualitative-quantitative approach was chosen, focusing on everyday life, with the use of software, creation and simulation of models, as well as seeking to establish the frequency of the students' attitude, through questionnaires and a four-point Likert Scale, seeking data that would trace the profile of the actors involved that would help in the understanding of the planned didactic activities. The study is justified by the lack of methodological theoretical references on the subject in question. Didactic activities of Statistics were organized, whose applications took place in alternating classes, being traditional lectures and practical classes in a Computer Laboratory. Constituting the main focus of characterization and reflection of this scientific research during the teaching-learning process of Statistics. The results showed a correct attitude of the researched about the methodological strategies used, assumed with reference to the research/action design. This study contributed to motivate, awaken and answer questions and give meaning and understanding to works with Mathematical Modeling, as it can promote the improvement of the teaching-learning process and configures itself as an indispensable tool for education.
