Ensino de Química para Estudantes com Deficiência Visual: Uma Breve Contribuição sobre a Produção de Recursos Educacionais Adaptados

Resumo

This study analyzed the scientific production of educacional resources for teaching chemistry to visually impaired students. The research included articles indexed in the CAPES Portal, SciELO, and ERIC, papers presented at academic events in the fields of teaching and inclusion (National Meeting on Chemistry Teaching, National Education Congress and International Congress on Inclusive Education), as well as thesis and dissertations available in the Brazilian Digital Library of Theses and Dissertations and the CAPES Theses and Dissertations Catalog. A total of 29 articles in national periodic, 34 articles in conference proceedings and 28 professional master’s dissertations were identified. The results highlighted a huge scarcity of adapted educational resources designed to address the specific needs of students with visual impairments, particularly within the domains of Physical Chemistry and Organic Chemistry. To overcome these limitations an effective collaboration among schools, universities, and governmental agencies is necessary, so as to consolidate inclusion as a tangible practice and secure quality education for all students.
