Abstract:
Active learning is one of Brazil’s goals for education, and it encourages and develops students new skills and competencies for a more complete and meaningful education. The didactic sequence that we carried out promoted the articulation of statistical knowledge with the use of techniques of data collection and systematic analysis through a technological device. According to the itinerary proposed by this study, the students built the research in groups, collected the data with Google Forms among their peers, using their smartphones, and then analyzed the data obtained using an Applet developed in Geogebra. Thus, in this paper, when we present the activity, its elaboration process, its execution, and its results, we aim to collaborate with teachers and future teachers who want to adopt technology in their classrooms, especially if they want to build empirical research.
