Vocational guidance in people with special educational needs as the result of visual impairment during the transition stage from high school to advanced education

This work proposes to seek for the factors related to the choices that people with special educational needs make as the result of the visual impairment, during the transition stage from high school to advanced education. Therefore, we have taken into consideration that Vocational Guidance and the transition towards adulthood get specific characteristics in case of visually impaired young people, particularly in what's related to continue with advanced education. The focus of this work is to be able to clarify the existence of factors that make this transition stage easier or harder, through the observation of visually impaired and blind people who complete high school. This matter has aroused interest and concern about the strategies to follow to ensure the successful entrance and remaining in the selected advanced education. However, if we don?t know the factors involved in the described fact, it's difficult to design an appropriate intervention strategy. Then, in order to take acknowledge about the specific issues of visually impaired young people who complete high school, we chose a special school for this disability and some students who will join this project

La educación de los niños y niñas con diversidad funcional desde la perspectiva de sus pares y docentes

En este artículo se presentan las investigaciones que venimos desarrollando sobre concepciones de niñas, niños y adultos acerca de las personas con diversidad funcional. Se trata de indagaciones descriptivas y exploratorias que recogen los puntos de vista de diferentes actores en el ámbito educativo. Las conceptualizaciones sobre la diversidad funcional resultan de construcciones sociales, culturales y científicas, siendo interpretadas por los individuos como modelos que implican valoraciones, actitudes, pensamientos y prácticas hacia el colectivo "personas con discapacidades", el que se visualiza como diferente y diverso. Desde el campo de la Ética y los Derechos Humanos la consideración de la discapacidad en la educación se concentra en el tema de la igualdad y de la equiparación de oportunidades, propiciando ambientes inclusivos. Nuestras investigaciones, centradas inicialmente en niñas, niños y adolescentes, y recientemente en docentes, intentan realizar aportes y brindar insumos para la reflexión que merece este problema en el marco de la escuela como parte de una sociedad más equitativa y justa
