88526 - Workshop Activities: Teaching Mathematics with Elements of Statistics (ABCD)

Academic Year 2023/2024

  • Teaching Mode: Traditional lectures
  • Campus: Bologna
  • Corso: Single cycle degree programme (LMCU) in Primary teacher education (cod. 8540)

Course contents

The National Indications for the 2012 curriculum identify the most significant situations in the laboratory for building lasting and solid knowledge. As Bolondi (2006) writes, "mathematics is not learned by contemplation", mathematics is lived and explored. The contents that will be activated in this laboratory refer to the Reports, data and forecasts core in which the following goals are set: .search for data to obtain information and build representations .obtain information also from data represented in tables and graphs During the laboratory, classroom situations will be proposed for nursery and primary schools in which we will reflect both on the types of graphs based on what they want to represent and communicate and on the creation of graphs starting from observations and data collection. Reading and creating infographics will be the underlying theme of the entire workshop.
