Abstract

The aim of this research was to describe the errors and reading levels that 6th and 7th grade Chilean primary school children reach when working with line graphs. To achieve this objective, we gave a questionnaire, previously validated by experts with two open-ended tasks, to a sample of 745 students from different Chilean cities. In the first task, we asked the children to read the title of the graph, describe the variables represented and perform a direct and inverse reading of a data value. In the second task, where we address the visual effect of a scale change in a representation, the students had to select the line graph more convenient to a candidate. Although both tasks were considered easy for the grade levels targeted, only some of the students achieved the highest reading level and many made occasional errors in the reading of the graphs.

En la primera tarea, se pidió que leyeran el título del gráfico, indicaran las variables representadas y realizaran una lectura directa y otra inversa de un valor de datos. En la segunda tarea, los estudiantes deben seleccionar y justificar el gráfico de líneas más conveniente para respaldar a un candidato, donde se aborda el efecto visual de cambio de escala en una representación. Aunque ambas tareas fueron fáciles, solo una parte de los estudiantes logró el máximo nivel de lectura y aparecieron errores ocasionales en la lectura de los gráficos.

小学生线形图阅读水平
这项研究的目的是描述智利6年级和7年级小学生在使用线条图时所达到的错误和阅读水平。为了实现这一目标,我们对来自智利不同城市的745名学生进行了一份问卷调查,该问卷以前由两项开放式任务的专家进行了验证。在第一个任务中,我们要求孩子们阅读图表的标题,描述所代表的变量,并对数据值进行直接和反向读取。在第二个任务中,当我们讨论代表中尺度变化的视觉效果时,学生必须为候选人选择最方便的线条图。虽然这两项任务都被认为对目标年级来说很容易,但只有一些学生达到了最高的阅读水平,许多学生在阅读图表时出现了偶尔的错误。摘要:这项研究的西班牙语目的是描述智利小学六年级和七年级学生在使用线条图时的错误和阅读水平。为了实现这一目标,对来自智利不同城市的745名学生的样本进行了一项问卷调查,该问卷事先得到了专家的验证,其中两项任务是开放的。在第一项任务中,要求他们阅读图表的标题,指示所代表的变量,并对数据值进行直接和反向读取。在第二个任务中,学生必须选择和证明最合适的线条图来支持候选人,在那里他们解决了在表达中改变尺度的视觉效果。虽然这两项任务都很容易,但只有一部分学生达到了最高的阅读水平,在阅读图表时偶尔会出现错误。

期刊介绍: SERJ is a peer-reviewed electronic journal of the International Association for Statistical Education (IASE) and the International Statistical Institute (ISI). SERJ is published twice a year and is free. SERJ aims to advance research-based knowledge that can help to improve the teaching, learning, and understanding of statistics or probability at all educational levels and in both formal (classroom-based) and informal (out-of-classroom) contexts. Such research may examine, for example, cognitive, motivational, attitudinal, curricular, teaching-related, technology-related, organizational, or societal factors and processes that are related to the development and understanding of stochastic knowledge. In addition, research may focus on how people use or apply statistical and probabilistic information and ideas, broadly viewed. The Journal encourages the submission of quality papers related to the above goals, such as reports of original research (both quantitative and qualitative), integrative and critical reviews of research literature, analyses of research-based theoretical and methodological models, and other types of papers described in full in the Guidelines for Authors. All papers are reviewed internally by an Associate Editor or Editor, and are blind-reviewed by at least two external referees. Contributions in English are recommended. Contributions in French and Spanish will also be considered. A submitted paper must not have been published before or be under consideration for publication elsewhere.
