Parametrizando o mapa-múndi: uma adaptação para a inclusão.

Abstract

Inclusive Education and more precisely, Special Education are some of the most pointed areas regarding the discussions about the evolutionary measures that should be taken for the formation of a better educational system. This can be seen through the creation of laws, decrees and congresses that focus on this theme. Thus, this research aims to know through a qualitative approach and the use of action research procedures, how learning the concepts of Cartesian plane and parameterization of the curve in the plane and space can facilitate the location of countries in the adapted world map. and on the globe adapted for a visually impaired student from Santana do Araguaia. To this end, interviews were conducted with teacher K (student teacher) and with student Augusto himself. With the interviews were identified the current parameters of Special Education in the mathematical ambit of the State High School of Santana do Araguaia. In addition, it was also possible to guide the theoretical framework addressed and by which paths the research should follow to obtain the expected results. The path found was the application of activities with the use of materials adapted with the student Augusto, who is a student who attends the 1∘ year of regular high school in the only public school with this type of education in the municipality. The activities were held at the facilities of the Federal University of South and Southeast Pará - Santana do Araguaia Campus. From the experiences described in the work it can be concluded that the use of adapted materials can positively influence the study of contents that are primarily visual, such as those addressed in the research, for students with visual impairment. In addition, one may also conclude that mathematical definitions can help in understanding other non-mathematical content.
