Os limites impostos ao deficiente nos espaços do exercício da docência: um estudo sobre os professores com deficiência física no CE/UFPB

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to present a quantitative and qualitative research systematization, about accessibility at Centro de Educação da Universidade Federal da Paraíba - UFPB. Our research is due to the several limitations found in relation to the person with physical disability, where our research brings the potentialities and limitations on this subject, having as case study the CE-UFPB. These limitations range from the difficulties of locomotion to the attitudinal barriers that make it difficult for these individuals to have access to the right to come and go, to perform basic needs, to enjoy rights and services, to leisure, education, culture and sports. In the first chapter we give a brief history about disability, its concepts and its etymology. In the second chapter, we set out to make a bibliographical survey on accessibility in Brazil, to make a theoretical overview that would subsidize our case study. In the fourth chapter, the theoretical and investigative aim will be to present reflections on the barriers faced by teachers with physical disabilities in their teaching at the Education Center, the accessibility and the conditions and the architectural conditions of the CE.To achieve this goal we use empirical research with a qualitative approach. For this we use the empirical bibliographical research, presenting a concise study about accessibility. As a research tool we used the semi-structured interview. The results revealed that much is still lacking in the infrastructure and social aspect to adapt the reality of the interviewed public to a truly dignified accessibility.
