The results reveal correct and incorrect perceptions and show that statistical notions regarding the context and representativeness of a data set are far removed from teacher training. Elementary teacher educators could draw from these perceptions and help to improve them so that future teachers may gain a full understanding of the concept, which will give them the skills they need to teach statistics in schools. En este trabajo se analizan las respuestas abiertas a una situación problema utilizadas en investigaciones sobre la media en presencia de valores atípicos en los datos. Los resultados muestran concepciones correctas e incorrectas y revelan que las ideas estadísticas de contexto y representatividad de un conjunto de datos están alejadas de la formación de los profesores. Los formadores de profesores de la educación primaria podrían partir de estas concepciones y hacerlas progresar para que los futuros profesores adquieran un significado completo del concepto, que les capacite en su tarea de enseñar estadística en la escuela.
