Teaching statistics in Hungarian schools: situation analysis and development opportunities
Résumé
In Hungary, teaching of statistics has been part of the curriculum for only 20 years. The introduction has been gradual: while the earlier curricula aimed at a low level of statistical literacy, the recent curricular changes have moved to a higher level. Despite initial difficulties, the subject is now popular with students and teachers alike. To maintain this, it is important that teachers are given adequate support to teach statistics at a higher level. In this article, we describe the development and current situation of teaching statistics in Hungary, and the research and development activities that have been taking place in this field. We examine whether teachers' attitudes, skills and interest in statistics (education) are congruent with the development of the statistics curriculum in Hungarian schools.
