Abstract
This report is framed with the process of design, implementation and validation of a teaching situation of conditional probability. It draws upon the game Monty Hall as scenario for decision-making in face of situations of uncertainty. In particular, under the didactic engineering framework, preliminary analysis elements are given. Cognitively, students use non mathematical elements to decide. Epistemological analysis focuses on the exchange of correspondence about gambling between Pascal and Fermat. The didactic elements show a prevalence of probabilistic calculations over decision making in textbooks.
