Kurzfassung

Kann man Statistik intuitiv lehren? Die Antwort, die in diesem Kapitel gegeben wird ist ein klares „Ja“. Es wird postuliert, dass die meisten Schüler über zumindest rudimentäre Versionen von zwei statistischen Intuitionen verfügen – die „Verhältnis-Intuition“ und die „Größe- Konfidenz-Intuition“, die zur Lösung einer Vielzahl von Wahrscheinlichkeitsaufgaben benutzt werden können. Ob diese Intuitionen angewandt werden oder nicht hängt allerdings davon ab, in welchem Darstellungsformat die entsprechenden Informationen dargeboten werden. Es wird zunächst anhand von Beispielen aus sehr unterschiedlichen inhaltlichen Bereichen gezeigt, dass die Beziehung zwischen Darstellungsformat und intuitiver Problemlösung sehr generell ist. Danach werden die beiden statistischen Intuitionen vorgestellt und ihr Einsatz im Unterricht kurz diskutiert.
