In this paper we are developing an investigation on the potential of simulation as a solving probability problems method with heuristic content and the implications for teaching. At the same time a teaching unit based probability problem solving it’s made to experience the method with children between 13 and 14 years old and shows how it can contribute to the learning of the students, in particular with the subjective judgment in situations of uncertainty and the use of statistical tools to analyze a set of data from the problem simulation....
