Abstract

Statistical literacy is of the utmost importance in modern societies traversing the era of Big Data, where virtually everyone has access to a tremendous volume of information but, at the same time, only a very limited percentage possess the ability to process and comprehend. There is no doubt that it is challenging to collect and use up-to-date statistical information in problem-solving when dealing with complex datasets. Moreover, cannot talk about statistical and data literacy without mentioning spatial thinking development and Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) use. So in the paper we present the web-based platform, statistics4school.eu which designed and implemented to bridge the gap that there are neither any free online educational tools for statistical analysis available for the Greek language nor are there any that can produce visualized messages based on the geography of individual Greek regions and sub-regions, in a way that can be readily facilitated in the classroom.
