Adaptação do Jogo General: Usando o jogo para complementar o estudo de Probabilidade e Estatística.

Abstract

This work represents a practical part of mathematics, an unprecedented class designed and executed, contemplating introductory studies of probability and statistics, with the General Game as a background, adapted for the proposal and for the final years of Elementary School, which can also be replicated in high school, with more depth. The objective is to study the basic contents of statistics, observation and critical study of the random results originated by the data, that is, identification of the mode, calculations of average and probability, in addition to the construction of tables and graphs. The objective is to explore the basic knowledge of statistics and probability and stimulate interest in mathematics through the use of the game. The type of research is exploratory descriptive following a mixed approach, with survey and analysis of quantitative data. The results point to a better engagement in the activities, with the active participation of the students in the organization, construction of tables, graphs and study of the probability of the combination of the game. It is concluded that this type of activity contributed to exploring the basic concepts of statistics and probability, in a practical way, through the General game.
