Abstract

The study described in this chapter is relates to learning hypothesis testing among students from engineering degree using technology and work project method. This project involved 31 students from the Informatics Engineering Degree responding to a small self-assessment survey applied in the four phases of project implementation. Beyond this, the authors collected data about the project reports and from a questionnaire related with students' perceptions about of the developed project. These last two types of data were obtained after the completion of the project work. Analysis highlighted that the most of students appreciated a lot the methodology adopted in the learning of hypothesis tests. However, some students reveal that they experienced some difficulties in the use of R software and in some dimensions of statistical reasoning, especially in the case of knowledge of statistics in project context.
