Preconcepciones de estudiantes de la Pontificia Universidad Javeriana Cali sobre el curso de estadística

One the most important difficulties that teachers of statistics face in teaching statistics in undergraduate courses are the student ́s equivocal preconceived ideas regarding the course. A 16 items-questionnaire aimed to find out the student’ s experience in the courses of statistics and mathematics, their preconceived ideas regarding the statistic courses and their previous knowledge on statistics was answered by 239 students from different schools. The students have agreement about the importance of make at least one statistics course in his/her professional training. Results showed that the courses of statistics must be thought and planned so as to promote a cultural environment dominated by the statistical thought, rather than being considered a course of calculus or mathematics in which students usually operate and do calculations without having clear ideas about the problem that give rise to such operations
