Concepciones de futuros profesores de primaria sobre la noción de aleatoriedad

Abstract

This article describes the first results obtained in an exploratory study carried out with primary-school teachers about their conceptions with respect to the notion of randomness. The results obtained indicate the partial and poorly formed nature of their conceptions, which reflect, in most cases, causal argumentations and low identification of the randomness of the daily events. This shows the need to develop specific training on probabilistic knowledge, its learning and teaching, based on the aforementioned conceptions.
