  This eBook has 20 chapters that discuss the need for teachers with solid didactic and disciplinary knowledge to ensure the achievement of learning in statistics by students. It brings together works by researchers from Argentina, Germany, Brazil, Canada, Chile, Colombia, Spain, Mexico, Peru, Portugal, Uruguay and Venezuela.

Specific topics, such as sampling or random variables, but also all levels of education, are covered.
  At a general level, the research reports the problems that teachers have both in the didactic and disciplinary aspects when teaching statistics, so it is necessary to pay attention to this subject if we wish to improve Statistics Education. Hence the publication of this book.
