Whether via TV, radio, newspapers, magazines, or social networks, information gains strength with the support of this area and can influence, manipulate or support the decisions that a society needs to make in any situation. In Brazil, Statistics teaching in Basic Education was reinforced when it was formally inserted, already in the 90s, in official documents that brought new guidelines, which occurred with the publication of the PCN’s. With this insertion, difficulties arise teaching this subject and, therefore, the needs to study and reflect about the teaching and learning processes in Statistics culminating in the educational field activity entitled Statistical Education. This work aims to discuss the Statistics and Statistical Education in Basic Education making a connection of this content with three aspects researched in this field - Literacy, the Thought and Statistical Reasoning. In that sense, as a result of this research, an educational product was developed, consisting of: an orientation manual and a sequence of activities. The manual is intended for teachers of Basic Education, in order to explore the virtual environment of the IBGE platform regarding to data collection and the study of statistics considering the three aspects already mentioned. The sequence of activities was designed for an application with students of Basic Education, in research and data collection actions, which enhance the understanding of central tendency and dispersion measures to sum up data from the collected data, as well as actions to interpret summary measures, through the IBGE platform.Acesso AbertoEstatística na Educação BásicaEducação EstatísticaMedidas de dispersãoIBGEmasterThesis
