PAGAN, Adriana  and  MAGINA, Sandra. O ensino de estatística na educação básica com foco na interdisciplinaridade: um estudo comparativo. R. Bras. Est. Pedag. [online]. 2011, vol.92, n.232, pp.723-738. ISSN 2176-6681.

The present study compares and discusses the learning gains among three groups of students from the 9th grade who had contact with some statistics elementary concepts through Math, Geography and applied Math classes. It was carried out in a public school in São Paulo and had three phases: two diagnostic phases (pre and post tests) and a learning intervention (different in each group and with distinct teachers). The theoretical approach was the registrations representation (Duval,1995), the data reading (Wainer,1992) and graphics (Curcio,1989). The results showed gains in the three groups, however, the applied math students had a superior gain in comparison to the other groups what is an indicator that statistics education based on interdisciplinarity is more effective to the acquisition of statistical elements.

Keywords : High School; Interdisciplinarity; Learning Intervention; Graphics and Tables Interpretation.
