O atendimento educacional especializado e a colaboração docente: caminhos para uma educação inclusiva

Abstract

This Undergraduate Thesis (TCC), titled “Specialized Educational Assistance and Teacher Collaboration: Paths Toward Inclusive Education,” aims to identify challenges and understand the dynamics of collaboration between regular education teachers and those in Specialized Educational Assistance (SEA). A qualitative methodological approach was adopted for this research, with data collected through semi-structured interviews conducted with teachers from two public schools in the municipality of Pirpirituba. The primary objective is to analyze the challenges faced by professionals in Specialized Educational Assistance and examine how collaboration between regular teachers and specialists impacts student learning and development. The study involved regular classroom teachers as well as SEA educators. Data collected from responses and interactions during interviews revealed that, despite progress, there is still a long way to go to achieve effective school inclusion. The lack of communication and mutual understanding among education professionals is one of the main obstacles, and collaboration needs to extend beyond the classroom. The involvement of parents and the school community is essential to strengthen this support network.
