Educação em ciências e educação de surdos: vivenciando possibilidades em aulas de física

Abstract

The objective of this research was to study the factors that most stood out in the involvement of a deaf student in relation to their learning about the basic concepts of Physics. This deaf student is included in a class of the first year of high school in a school located in the municipality of Abaetetuba / Pa. This research presents a qualitative delineation, guided by the action research, where the main ones involved in the field of research were the researcher (teacher), an interpreter, the deaf student and the student listener. The data were produced through interviews, participant observation of the physics classes and a trail game, the latter was made in partnership with PIBID / PHYSICS / ABAETETUBA-PA scholarship recipients and had as purpose to review the concepts studied in previous classes and to identify if the strategy used by me (teacher regent of the class) provided learning for the deaf student. For the analysis of the data was used Discursive Textual Analysis, through which emerged three categories of analysis: Obstacles during the interpretation of Portuguese for Libras; Evidence of learning of the deaf student; And Challenges of Teaching: between anguish and conquest. The results showed that the use of: signalized Portuguese associated with images, Libras, written Portuguese, home signs and gambling; Helped the teaching and learning process, but they were not enough, highlighting as necessary a collaborative work among all the professionals of the school. It is hoped from this research to point out the importance of the teacher to know the least of the Libras to, in a collaborative work, include the deaf student in the so-called regular classroom. Regarding the product, a booklet was created with some guidelines for teachers working with deaf students.
