La Statistica nel processo di formazione: una sconosciuta opportunità per percorsi didattici innovativi

The paper introduces the importance of Statistics skills owned by citizen and students in Italy. Considering the lack of soft and specific skills of Italian students in every school level (from primary school to University level), this paper describes some didactic methods and paths to improve the Statistic skills in the students. Here some critical aspects on teacher’s competences related to the statistical contents, the methodology and the new digital resources, are underlined. By the way, to reduce these problems new opportunities offered by the new scholastic reform, are described. After a discussion regarding methods and digital instruments for teaching Statistics, the paper describes four didactic experiences starting from the primary school, moving through the university level.
