Experiências vividas em atividade de extensão: narrativa e estatística na educação infantil e nos anos iniciais do ensino fundamental

Abstract

This article is an expansion of the text presented at the International Seminar on Research in Mathematics Education (SIPEM), in 2021, and it presents the experience developed in a curricular teaching, research and outreach activity (ACIEPE). The activity was coordinated by the authors and was conducted remotely between 2020 and 2021. It sought to give a prominent role to teachers who teach mathematics, and it focused on the teaching and learning of statistics in early childhood education and in the initial grades of primary education. The study is qualitative, and the data were built through the oral and/or written narratives of 20 participants – teachers or teacher licensure students. Reflecting about one’s own narrative and sharing it with other teachers has proved potentially beneficial to teachers’ training and professional development. The activity allowed expanding the theoretical and methodological competence of participants regarding statistics in early schooling.
