LOPEZ, Camilo  and  GOMEZ, Pedro. Curricular review of statistical topics in primary education. Relime [online]. 2023, vol.26, n.1, pp.81-100.  Epub Sep 17, 2024. ISSN 2007-6819.  https://doi.org/10.12802/relime.23.2613.

In this article, we make a curricular review on topics included in statistics in primary school in Colombia and in the 56 countries that participated in TIMSS 2015. We describe the topics based on the concepts and procedures, representations and phenomenology related to statistics in primary education. We identify differences and similarities between the topics considered in Colombia and the topics from the countries participating in TIMSS 2015. We found that statistics is included in the curricula of most countries and in Colombia. The topics focus on graphical and tabular representations, on the concept of mean, and reference is made in phenomenology to statistics to organize information. These results may generate curricular discussions and motivate similar studies in other countries.

Keywords : Curriculum; Statistics; Primary Education; Teaching of Statistics.
