Ocorrência de artigos em periódicos científicos a respeito da formação continuada de professores de educação infantil para a atuação com crianças com deficiência

The professional development of teachers to work with children with disabilities is a recurring theme in the literature, as it is one of the keys to effective educational inclusion. However, studies carried out so far have mainly focused on training elementary school teachers. Given this context, this study sought to investigate: the occurrence of articles whose main objective is professional development for teachers of early childhood education to work with children with disabilities; and the methodology used in the professional development programs assessed by those papers. Articles published from 1990 to 2012, in the following journals, were analyzed: Educação e Pesquisa (USP), Revista Psicologia Escolar e Educacional, Pro-Posições (Unicamp), Revista Brasileira de Educação Especial e Revista Educação Especial (UFSM). After selecting the journals, the titles of all articles published within the period considered were read. Articles deemed relevant articles were read in full, and analyzed, according to the purposes of this research. The results indicated that within the period considered, and based on the journals chosen for investigation, there were no specific articles on the subject directly, although there have been articles that touch on the issue. This literature review emphasizes the importance of expanding research on the subject, in order to widen knowledge in the area, especially knowledge aimed at contributing to early childhood education and the professional development of its teachers.

A concepção de deficiência em discussão: ponto de vista de docentes de Terapia Ocupacional

The way one conceives disabled people seems to influence the actions directed toward them. Occupational therapists constitute a part of health professionals that direct their actions based on a comprehensive view of disability. The aim of this study was to identify and analyze the conception of disability from the standpoint of occupational therapists. Fifteen university teachers of Occupational Therapy undergraduate courses participated in this study: seven from public universities and eight from private institutions, located in mid-sized municipalities in the state of São Paulo. The data were collected by means of a scale denominated “Escala de Avaliação da Concepção de Deficiência” (Rating Scale for Conception of Disability). The results show that the subjects tend to follow interactional, social conceptions of disability. This study yields contributions to understand the conception of disability held by teachers of Occupational Therapy. This conception certainly guides their teaching performance and affects the training of future professionals.

Percepção de professores sobre a Avaliação de Habilidades Motoras e de Processo Versão Escolar aplicada aos alunos com deficiência física

Objetivou-se verificar sob a ótica do professor se a Avaliação de Habilidades Motoras e de Processo – Versão Escolar (School - Version of the Assessment of Motor and Process Skills - School-AMPS) aplicada aos alunos com deficiência física prediz o desempenho do aluno observado em sala de aula. Participaram dez crianças com deficiência física, entre quatro e oito anos de idade, e seus respectivos educadores. Os dados foram coletados por meio da observação das crianças em ambiente clínico durante a realização de tarefas pré-determinadas, com base na versão brasileira da School-AMPS. Aos educadores foi apresentado um relatório de avaliação da criança e aplicado um questionário composto por três questões. Os dados foram analisados de forma quantitativa e qualitativa. Os resultados apontaram que a School-AMPS possibilitou identificar se o desempenho da criança foi, na sua maioria, considerado deficitário, satisfatório ou intermediário e, sobretudo, possibilitou analisar o desempenho a partir da percepção da relação existente entre demandas da pessoa, da tarefa e do ambiente. Os educadores consideraram que o relatório de avaliação apresentado prediz de forma compatível o desempenho do aluno observado em sala de aula. Consideraram viáveis os recursos pedagógicos adaptados e as sugestões de estratégias para minimizar e/ou superar as dificuldades observadas no desempenho do aluno. Conclui-se que a versão brasileira da School-AMPS tem potencial como medida de desempenho funcional em crianças com deficiência física, entre quatro e oito anos de idade, e pode contribuir para a atuação do terapeuta ocupacional no contexto escolar.

Inclusão escolar do aluno com deficiência física: contribuições da Terapia Ocupacional

The inclusive school consists of a school that thoroughly attends the diversity and, therefore, students with special educational needs, including the ones with physical dysfunction. The objective of this study was to identify the difficulties of a teacher in the process of school inclusion of the student with physical dysfunction in order to adapt learning resources, having adequate school furniture and to guide the teacher in specific situations. A teacher of early childhood education participated in this study. For data collection two half-structuralized interviews were used. The first obtained information concerning the teacher’s difficulties due to the motor aspects of the student with difficulty to access the curriculum. The second interview gathered information about the teacher’s perception of the partnership between the occupational therapist and the teacher in the perspective of the inclusive education. The data analysis of the first interview and the student case-study allowed elaborating occupational therapy strategies to minimize these difficulties.After elaborating the strategies, a second interview was performed. The data of this interview showed that based on the analysis and adequacy of the interaction between a person’s functional demands, the task and the environment, make it possible for the student to overcome satisfactorily the inherent challenges of the educational context, and detached the importance of the partnership of the teacher and occupational therapist in the whole process. It concludes that the pupil incapacity would not have manifested if there was an adequate environment to receive him.

Elaboração de questionário para aferir concepções sobre inclusão de aluno com deficiência em aulas de educação física

The natural elapse of physical education classes does not seem to be so tranquil when the teacher is faced with students with and without disabilities in the same class. This way it is appropriate to disclose how the teacher understands the practice by itself, before the educational inclusion of the students with disabilities. It was developed a questionnaire to gauge conceptions on the inclusion of students with disabilities in physical education, through six steps: 1) performance of a semi-structured interview, 2) preparation of the first version of the questionnaire, 3) assessment of the utterances by judges and 4) writing of the second version; 5) a test to assess the clearness, and the understanding of the utterances; 6) the preparation of the third version of the questionnaire.

O relacionamento fraterno na presença da deficiência

This research was developed during four years, in different regions of the country. Its purpose was to better understand the possible influences that handicapped siblings have on the development of non- handicapped siblings. Participated in the study 80 siblings, with ages ranging between 14 and 26 years. There were 20 siblings of physical handicapped (PH), 20 siblings of auditory handicapped (AH), 20 of mental handicapped (MH), and 20 of non handicapped, in number and ages equivalent.The participants answered a questionnaire containing “characteristics of handicapped person”, “characteristics of respondent sibling”, “characteristics of family”, a questionnaire with eleven closed questions and one open, but for the control group there was on less question. The phenomena studied in this research in some situations present themselves differently for each group of respondent sibling (ex: greater concern of the parents with the MH sibling, calling attention more for siblings of PH and MH, more responsibility in the family, taking care of the handicapped sibling, fear of having handicapped children, and the perception of (in) dependency of the handicapped sibling) and in others present themselves in similar manner (ex: more concern of the parents with the brother with PH, nature of the relationship, to feel or not ashamed of the sibling, talking about the sibling development). In conclusion, some phenomena, so far socially perceived as causing differences in sibling relations and attributed to de presence of a handicap are not, since between siblings of non handicapped these same phenomena present themselves in a similar way. Differently from the control group, siblings of handicapped need correct information, as well as therapeutic support to elaborate feelings of fear, anger, shame that they may have due to their condition. It is important to stress, also, the need that these siblings have to be themselves without the stigma of sibling of handicapped.

Avaliação de competências profissionais de aprendizes com deficiência

Professional competence can be one of the paths for the insertion of the disabled students in the labor market. This study evaluated the development of skills from the perspective of five learners with disabilities, their tutors and teachers. The survey was conducted in a non-governmental organization that had a range of 32 skills to be taught. The assessment revealed that some of the skills improve with provided training, others remained at the same level and only one decreases its score. It is possible to conclude that the learning program contributed to the development of the skills, which may mean the inclusion of young people in the labor market.

Avaliação do controle postural e do tipo do pé de pessoas com deficiência visual

The balance changing in the visually impaired is target of investigations, as balance and vision are interrelated. Also, another important factor in the maintenance of postural control is the biomechanical aspect of the feet. This study aimed to evaluate postural control and feet type of individuals with visual impairments. For then 17 adults with visual impairment participated in this study and have been evaluated by the baropodometry system. The oscillation of the center of pressure data were analyzed using the software Conformat Research 5.8, and subjected to Mann-Whitney’s statistical test. The results showed no statistically significant difference in postural control when comparing individuals with and without visual residue and which normal and foot with biomechanical alterations, which demonstrates that the visual impairment was the main factor of changes in postural control for the participants of this study.
