Inclusão escolar de alunos com deficiências em escolas do campo

Abstract

The present research goal is to understand the process of inclusion of students with disabilities in rural schools located in Itatiba do Sul / RS. The nature of the research was qualitative and exploratory. Data was collected through observations of the physical structures of the Itatiba do Sul rural schools, and also based on questionnaires done with the acceptance and availability of science teachers and a representative of the municipality's education department. The access, permanence and how the teaching and learning process of students with disabilities in science teaching were investigated. The results show that the physical structure of the schools is not accessible to all the public, as they have little support for students with disabilities. The Science Teaching also presents many shortcomings, as it lacks both materials that approach this teaching in an inclusive way, as well as teachers with qualified specific training for this purpose. These aspects highlight the importance and necessity of continuous training for teachers and improvements in school infrastructure.
