| Summary: | The difficulties related to the statistical literacy of Brazilians are well known, that is, the unpreparedness of a large part of the population to interpret data referring to the social environment in which they live. Likewise, we are aware of teachers' unpreparedness and the scarcity of discussions involving this topic in initial training. Therefore, the investigation presented in this paper aimed to analyze the knowledge that emerged from undergraduate students in Mathematics during a pedagogical workshop on statistical literacy, from an ideological perspective, which considers race and citizenship education. To meet the demands of the study, the theoretical framework adopted is based on the ideas of Bell Hooks, Iddo Gal and Ubiratan D'Ambrósio. The methodology developed was action research and the evidence found revealed that the workshop participants built a more accurate look at statistical concepts and racial issues, admitting the possibility of addressing social issues in Mathematics classes in basic education. |
