O papel do professor no processo de inclusão de um estudante com transtorno do espectro autista na escola regular

Abstract

This work was guided by the following question: what are the main strategies and resources used to include a student with ASD in a public school in a city in the interior of Paraíba? The interest and motivation for choosing this research topic arose from reflections and learning during the Pedagogy course and through bibliographical research that also encouraged us to deepen the process of including children with ASD in regular schools. In this sense, we adopted, as the general objective of this article, to identify the strategies and pedagogical resources used in the teaching and learning process of a student with ASD in a public school in the interior of Paraíba. To introduce the concepts covered here, we first seek to know more about ASD. After all, it has become increasingly common to find students with this condition in our regular schools. The investigation is basic in nature, with a qualitative and exploratory approach in terms of objectives. The subject of this research was a teacher hired to teach a 4th year elementary school class in the public school system. Regarding procedures, we adopted a bibliographical research followed by a case study. Thus, we read texts and authors that guided our analysis and discussion of the results, such as Giolo and Garcez, Assumpção, Bosa, Cunha, Luckesi, Neto, Mantoan, Nóvoa, Vygostki and others. For the case study, we conducted an interview with the teacher using a semi-structured script and observed her relationship in the classroom with the student. The research results highlighted the importance of qualified training for teachers and other professionals to assist in the full development of students with ASD. Furthermore, we were able to identify pedagogical strategies and resources that can be used for learning and socialization. Finally, we realized, mainly by observing the student's relationship with other colleagues, the importance of socialization to offer the security they need to learn.
