O uso de metodologias alternativas no ensino de geografia para estudantes com deficiência intelectual nas séries finais no ensino fundamental

Abstract

This paper discusses the need to implement new methods to promote the inclusion of students with intellectual disabilities in the final years of primary school, focusing on geography education. This investigation, conducted at São Borja State College, examined how different approaches could improve the learning of these students. The research evaluates the methods of Special Educational Assistance (SEA) teachers and then proposes alternative approaches, such as creating interactive games on the WordWall platform, intending to engage students and enhance their understanding of the content. The use of case studies as a methodology facilitates an extensive analysis of teaching practices and their effects. The results for students B and H show that adapting approaches to specific requirements is crucial for creating an inclusive and equitable educational environment. The article is organized into four parts: general concepts and a literature review, methodology, presentation and analysis of the research, and final considerations, which suggest that alternative methods have a positive impact on inclusive education.
