Abstract

　Students’ Statistical Thinking does not improve only by learning descriptive statistics in the Mathematics of high school. In this study，the students took “MathematicsⅠ” classes and “Information Study for Participating Community”，which were based on the PBL idea with RESAS. Separating these students into two groups and having one group take PBL program，there were some kind of differences that were meaningful in the class which had been done PBL. We found out that students’ attitude toward learning would improve by taking “ARCS mq.”.
