The course aims to provide students with the basic notions of mathematics, geometry, probability and statistics, with particular reference to examples that can be usefully used in lectures at elementary schools. It is also intended to stimulate the reading of the complexity of reality, with particular reference to the concept of probability and the entire descriptive stststic application.

Knowledge and understanding: the student must know the rules of combinatorics and probability; also know the type of variables and how to represent them graphically. Furthermore, he will have to know the algebraic rules relating to operations and the rules relating to plane figures Applied knowledge and understanding: the student must be able to apply the mathematical and statistical rules studied in order to apply them to real cases, as well as be able to perform simple statistical calculations and graphical representations Autonomy of judgment: the student must be able to independently evaluate the plausibility of the result of a calculation procedure, both mathematical and statistical. Communication skills: the student will have to acquire a correct mathematical and statistical language. Ability to learn: the student will be able to deepen specific arguments, not presented during the course, using the notions learned.

Assessment

The exam will be held in presence, in written form. It consists of 15 closed-ended questions; each question has four answer options, only one of which is correct. For scoring: correct answer; 2 points wrong answer: -0.5 points answer left blank: 0 points 

Disability and Specific Learning Disorders (SLD)

Students who have registered their disability certification or SLD certification with the Inclusion and Right to Study Office can request to use conceptual maps (for keywords) during exams.

To this end, it is necessary to send the maps, two weeks before the exam date, to the course instructor, who will verify their compliance with the university guidelines and may request modifications.
