Abstract

The International Posters Competition of the International Institute of Statistical Literacy, ISLP/IASE, has grown in ibero-america,in recent years. The aim of the ISLP competition is supporting, creating, and boosting activities of statistical literacy in every country in the world; demonstrating understanding through the execution of a project in statistics; and making a poster to present the project. The posters are judged according to these criteria: clarity of the message; data collection; analysis and conclusions; graphs and tables; presentation; creativity and importance. In this context, this session will present research papers from Brazil, Portugal and Venezuela. They present the results of the improvement of teaching and learning in statistics through ISLP, through the analysis of student's narratives, both participants and winners; through the views of the organizers, the jury members, and from the participants – teachers and students; and through an analysis of the statistical activities contained in mathematical books that could be used to support ISLP.
