Contextos comunicacionais adequados e inadequados à inclusão de alunos com deficiência visual em aulas de mecânica

This article is inserted in a study aimed at the identification of the main barriers for the inclusion of visually-impaired students in Physics classes. It focuses on the understanding of the communication context which facilitates or hardens the effective participation of students with visual impairment in Mechanics activities. To do so, the research defines, from empirical - sensory and semantic structures, the language to be applied in the activities, as well as, the moment and the speech pattern in which the languages have been used. As a result, it identifies the rela tion between the uses of the interdependent audio-visual empirical lan guage structure in the non-interactive episodes of authority; the decrease in the use of this structure in interactive episodes; the creation of educa tional segregation environments within the classroom and the frequent use of the interdependent tactile-hearing empirical language structure in such environments.

A comunicação como barreira à inclusão de alunos com deficiência visual em aulas de Física Moderna

This article is part of a study that seeks to understand the main barriers to the inclusion of visually   impaired   students   in   learning   Physics.   Analyzing  modern physics classes, we examine the difficulties in communication between teachers and visually impaired students. Our study emphasizes the analyses of empirical­sensory and semantic structures of speech, indicating factors that may hamper  students’ understanding in the classroom. We recommend alternative procedures that aim to facilitate the effective participation of students with visual impairment in the communication process, such as:  elimination of the interdependent   audiovisual structure and the exploration of the communicational potentialities of a speech based on empirical structures whose accessibility does not depend on visual skills.

Contextos comunicacionais adequados e inadequados à inclusão de alunos com deficiência visual em aulas de termologia

This article represents a continuation of the results of a research presented in Camargo and Nardi (2007). It is inserted in the study that seeks to understand the main student’s inclusion barriers with visual impairment in the Physics classes. It aims to understand which communication context shows kindness or unkindness to the impairment visual student’s real participation in thermology activities. For this, the research defines, from the empirical - sensory and semantics structures, the used languages in the activities, as well, the moment and the speech pattern in which the languages have been used. As result, identifies a strong relation between the uses of the interdependent empirical structure audio-visual language in the non-interactive episodes of authority; a decrease of this structure use in the interactive episodes and the creation of education segregation environments within the classroom.

Deficiência visual e educação científica: orientações didáticas com um aporte na neurociência cognitiva e teoria dos campos conceituais

The aim of this paper is to present an educational proposal with didactic and pedagogical orientations, to the Science Education for people with visual impairments. Then, we use as main reference, Gérard Vergnaud’s Theory of Conceptual Fields, joining with a translational focus, applying empirical results of Cognitive Neuroscience. Within this, we highlight the role of educational activities related with 'multisensory scientific literacy ', focusing on the linguistic triad: read, interpretation and textual representation. We hope this perspective, become in the future an important component on guidelines for composing a 'semiotic protocol' for Science Education. Realizing too, epistemological peculiarities, pedagogic and didactic specificities in this area, and, revealing such properties on the cognitive constructs, for science and technology education.

Educação inclusiva: concepções de professores de ciências com relação à inclusão de alunos com deficiência visual em aulas de astronomia

Despite of intense discussion over recent decades about the inclusion of disabled people and the influence of conception of teachers about that inclusion for the effectuation of it, this work sought to identify conceptions of science teachers regarding the inclusion of students with visual impairment in the classes of astronomy providing basis for future studies.

Aplicação de texto paradidático no ensino de física como possível alternativa para a inclusão de aluno com deficiência visual

The work completed on the use of para-didactic texts do not address the issue of education in a state that considers the presence of students with visual impairments. Therefore, this article discusses an innovative situation, investigating if the use of para-didactic texts provide the necessary conditions for the inclusion of students with visual impairment in physics education classes. The response indicates a discreet participation of these students, however a significant one, in this application the students were motivated and interested in all of the topics discussed. This prudent participation may have occurred for reasons such as shyness and the behavior of teachers, as they tended to to be more talkative to these students.

Um estudo sobre a intervenção com o professor de educação física para a inclusão educacional do aluno com deficiência visual

It was aimed to identify how the physical education teachers worked to include a student with visual impairment; intervene with the teacher from the identified necessities and assess the intervention. Data were collected in three stages: 1) Weekly monitoring and filming the classes, 2) intervention by the reflection of videos coming from the previous step and suggesting new actions, 3) development of filming for evaluating the intervention. Before the intervention, it was identified that the explanation of the activities happened collectively. It was held the physical help as the first form of instruction, the student with visual impairment participation occurred depending on the company of a classmate who held hands and did the activities together. Along the intervention it was reflected about the structure of the classes, the ways of explanation of the activities and the strategies and the resources to assure an enjoyable participation of students with visual impairments. The training of peer tutors was a strategy used. After the intervention it was identified in the classroom the assistance of the trained peer tutors; the maintenance of oral explanation and demonstration, though, the first way to explanation for the student with visual impairment started to be the oral tip.

A equoterapia como auxiliar no processo de inclusão do aluno com deficiência visual: estudo de caso

This study examines the hippotherapy related to school inclusion. Inclusive education, given the diversity of human kind, seeks to understand and meet the educational needs of all students. Visual impairment is defined as a reduction or complete loss of ability to see with the better eye and after the best possible optical correction, and may be perceived by the focus when the individual educational needs of Braille for their learning. Hippotherapy is a therapeutic and educational method that uses the horse in an interdisciplinary approach in health, education and riding, searching for the biopsychosocial development of people with disabilities and/or special needs. The general objectives were: to follow a Hippotherapy program applied to a student with visual disabilities included in regular education from the practice sessions of hippotherapy and the student's school routine, and specific: to verify changes to a student with visual impairment during their participation in an equine therapy program, to check the commitment, involvement and interest in school activities the student practicing hippotherapy inserted into the regular school system. The methodology was a qualitative research, in the form of case study. The instruments of data collection were interviews, video recordings, photographs, school information and the subject of systematic observations of the sessions of hippotherapy. Interviews were conducted at three different times during the course of the program. First we used a strategy for succeeding in increasing the involvement of practicing with the school. Later, another strategy was established, consisting of the effective presence of the researcher in the school to carry out activities on the hippotherapy within the school environment. The analysis of the first interview showed no changes in school interest, however, occurred in the family environment. In analyzing the results of the second interview was seen as a...

O design inclusivo e o portador de deficiência visual : a estimulação sensorial na arquitectura através da terapia Snoezelen

Somos rodeados por arquitetura mas nem sempre a vivemos da melhor forma, nem sempre sabemos tirar o melhor partido do que nos rodeia e nem sempre o que nos rodeia é o melhor para nós nem o que nos faz mais felizes. Esta realidade é ainda maior para indivíduos portadores de deficiência. Nota-se, hoje em dia, uma crescente preocupação para que as casas, e não só os espaços comerciais e públicos, sejam acessíveis a todas as pessoas. Pensando nisto, muitos profissionais da área da Arquitectura, Engenharia e Design de Interiores, desenvolvem os seus projetos levando em conta o design universal ou inclusivo. Os princípios deste design não são exclusivos às pessoas portadoras de deficiência, a aplicação dos mesmos pode garantir, por exemplo, que uma mesma pessoa resida na mesma casa dos 0 aos 80 anos. As necessidades mudam ao longo da nossa vida. Uma casa inclusiva é por isso uma casa para toda a vida.

A INCLUSÃO SOCIAL E AS MEDIAÇÕES NA RECEPÇÃO DA COMUNICAÇÃO MERCADOLÓGICA TELEVISIVA POR PESSOAS COM DEFICIÊNCIA VISUAL

Este trabalho é estimulado pela reflexão sobre a recepção da comunicação mercadológica televisiva por pessoas com deficiência visual, assim como sobre a percepção quanto às iniciativas do governo e das empresas em prol da inclusão. O estudo busca, com base na Teoria das Mediações, que é estudada por teóricos dos Estudos de Recepção, entender de que forma as pessoas com deficiência visual interagem com as diferentes categorias de comerciais de televisão, a partir de seus valores, percepções de mundo e condições em que se encontram. Deste modo, observa-se ainda o nível de sentimento de pertencimento das pessoas com deficiência visual quanto à preocupação do governo e das empresas em causas sociais. Os procedimentos que dirigem a investigação caracterizam-se por uma reflexão a partir de dados decorrentes de pesquisa bibliográfica, articulada a uma pesquisa de campo de natureza qualitativa. O trabalho conclui que a percepção das pessoas com deficiência visual se distancia do que está sendo proposto, feito e aparentemente sendo bem divulgado em prol da inclusão; bem como, observa a necessidade de aprimoramento da conscientização da sociedade, e consequentemente dos comunicadores, sobre a importância da aproximação entre as pessoas com deficiência visual e a comunicação mercadológica televisiva. Nesta percepção, o trabalho apresenta sugestões no âmbito comunicacional que poderiam tornar as causas sociais realmente expressivas na vida das pessoas com deficiência visual.
