OLIVEIRA, Paulo César and PEREIRA, Júlio César. Planejamento e delineamento de experimentos probabilísticos para o ensino fundamental I. Linhas Críticas [online]. 2012, vol.18, n.35, pp.151-170. ISSN 1981-0431.
We present fragments of a process of learning, learning to teach and teaching concepts of probability and statistics, involving teachers who work in elementary schools. This subject has been included in the educational curriculum in Brazil since 1998 and many working teachers have not undergone a process of systematic learning of it in their school and working life. One way of supporting these professionals is by publishing scientific papers. However, Guimarães et al. (2009) found that between 2001 and 2006 only seven papers relating to this context were published. Hence, our contribution will be to reflect on the experimentation process and its implications for learning.
