Narrativas e histórias de um professor universitário surdo e sua relação com estudantes ouvintes

Abstract

The present study aims to show that in the midst of the numerous barriers imposed by the listening society, the deaf is able to enter the job market and be an excellent professional. In this context, the central objective of the work falls on the performance of a deaf teacher in the teaching of Libras in higher education, as provided by Decree 5.626 / 2005. The main objective of the work was to understand the educational trajectory and the professional trajectory of a deaf professor at the university. Through this, we seek to analyze the obstacles that a deaf university professor faced during his life. Therefore, we aim to present reflections on the qualitative approach with the perspective of narrative analysis, since to understand the research material itself we briefly cover the history of education for the deaf and throughout the work, the narratives of the research participants were analyzed to better understand how the educational trajectory of the deaf university professor happened and his relationship with his hearing students in the Libras discipline in the Pedagogy course at the Federal University of Alagoas - Campus do Sertão. With this, we observed with this narrative study the importance of knowledge about teaching Libras and that regardless of their hearing loss, the deaf teacher can, should and can teach Libras classes to hearing students in any teaching modality.
