Abstract: 

In this work an analysis of some task variables of statistical problems which can be proposed to the students to be solved on the computer, are presented. The objective of this didactical-mathematical analysis is to provide criteria of selection of the said problems, directed to guiding the students' learning towards the adequate meanings of the statistical notions and to the development of their ability to solve problems.
