SUMMARY:

The qualitative research presented in this dissertation emerged from observations experienced in teaching practice

at CAS Natal, which revealed the difficulty in understanding statistical graphs by deaf students.

During the diagnostic evaluation, we presented the students with some types of graphics and of the 16 students in

the class, 11 answered that they had never studied this content. Considering that graphics permeate our daily lives

in different environments, we understand that the lack of this knowledge can negatively interfere with the full

participation of the deaf person in society. Based on this issue, we sought a tool that would help answer the

question, how can the use of educational software help teachers teach statistical graphics to deaf students?

After the active search, we did not find a tool that suited our reality. In this way, we have developed a ludic and

visual educational software that allows the creation of statistical graphics, bilingual and that can, through

suggested tasks, present to the student errors and successes in use, considering Statistical Literacy as a guide.

Data collection, the concepts of greater and lesser, in addition to the production and reading of statistical

graphs will be the knowledge evaluated. We adopted as a theoretical framework for software development

Quixaba, Cardoso and Perry (2019) and Stumpf (2010), for software content, Gal (2002) and Nogueira (2013)

and Arnoldo Junior, Geller and Fermandes (2013). In the methodology, we used Dresch, Lacerda and Antunes 

Júnior (2015). For software validation we used Rios and Moreira (2013) and Bastos et al (2007). 

The methodology adopted was Design Science Research (DSR). After applying the software with two classes, 

with a total of 17 deaf students, we observed that the software showed good usability and allowed assessing 

the level of graph reading in a simple and practical way. The visual aspect was the factor that allowed students 

to respond without difficulties, even without previous experience with graphics. The software also allowed us to

perceive the difficulty in subtraction with reserve. Thus, we understand that the use of software in teaching 

graphics can contribute to the formation of deaf students.
