Abstract

In this dissertation will explore the concept of probability, using investigative and directed methodologies by activities that seek to show, through games and challenges, the importance of this knowledge in the student’s cognitive formation, providing him a theoretical and practical about the experiences and stimulating logical and mathematical thinking. Each activity comes with the methodologies, the analysis of the results and assessment questionnaires. Also, displays the historical aspects relevant to the emergence and formalization of the concept of probability, besides showing the structure of the school curriculum on the topic. The work will serve to subsidize the teaching practice in the classroom teaching of probability classes in high school.
