Tecnologia assistiva na educação dos surdos: o processo de aprendizagem e inclusão dos alunos surdos do sertão alagoano

Abstract

This research carried out a study on the contributions of Assistive Technologies (AT) in the education of deaf students in the regular classroom. Thus, we ask ourselves how technologies can be introduced in the classroom, through tools that facilitate learning and help in an inclusive environment? This investigation is qualitative in nature, based on a bibliographic study. The chosen subjects were teachers from the municipality of Delmiro Gouveia/AL. To compose the analyzes we used a virtual questionnaire as an instrument for data collection, through the Google forms platform that addressed questions about the context of the application of technology in education and the process of inclusion of students with hearing problems. To support the research, a literature review was carried out on the contributions of technology to education, emphasizing the benefits of AT in the learning process of deaf students. The actions point to the importance of using technologies as pedagogical tools for knowledge construction and teaching appropriation in the process of inclusion of Deaf students.
