O ensino de trigonometria para deficientes visuais através do Multiplano Pedagógico

Abstract

This dissertation presents a research on teaching trigonometry to low vision, developed with three young students from the 1st year of high school of the Colégio Pedro II - São Cristóvão - Rio de Janeiro, possessing different types of visual impairment. The intent of this research was to contribute towards real inclusion, with normal vision students and students with visually impaired sharing the same curriculum and the same learning environment. This research provides some information about the deficiencies of vision and on the teaching of trigonometry, besides presenting the Multiplano Pedagógico an excellent tool facilitating the learning mathematics. With the aid of Multiplano, were performed experiences with activities directed to the teaching of mathematics, in particular the content of Trigonometry, for this audience, reviewing content fundamental in the proper monitoring of the course. The young research participants participated actively from the guiding action until its completion. It shows that many concepts can be best introduced when aided learning materials tailored to the needs of the students, but still lack a proper way so that there is in fact an inclusive education, with trained professionals and schools to meet a qualified manner to holders of student needs special education.
