Abstract

The current reality of learning statistics in Cuba has shown that there is a need to deepen research on the factors that influence the poor knowledge of statistical content in national education, essentially in Primary Education. Traditionally, the statistical contents in primary school have been relegated to few notions to which little time is spent in relation to the other mathematical content blocks of the curriculum, in addition, despite its importance, its teaching, sometimes becomes boring and tedious for the way it is taught. Statistical projects in the classroom are a method that helps to approach statistical content in a context close to the students, their daily life, their sociodemographic, economic situation or the study of situations that arouse their interest. This article has been the result of research and its objective is: to present didactic recommendations and methodological suggestions to contribute to the improvement of the teaching of statistics in primary education through teaching by projects. For its realization, the dialectical-materialistic approach was started as a general method and for its conception, methods of the theoretical level, the empirical level and the statistical-mathematical level were taken into account. With the application of this project-centered methodology, it was possible to greatly increase the learning of schoolchildren as well as the motivation and interest in this science.
