Abstract

The education of students with intellectual disabilities is currently based on philosophical, political and legal integration principles, which provide for the enrollment of all students in regular education and common classrooms offering the Specialized Educational Assistance (SEA). For this is important offering preparation for teachers that address these demands. Considering offering Distance Education courses by the Ministry of Education, carried out a literature review aiming to identify and analyze instructional materials in the field of intellectual disabilities, used in special education teacher preparation, available on the Ministry of education (MEC) / Department of Continuing education, Literacy, Diversity (SECADI) site. After a search on the site two materials was found: Educational Service Specialist - Intellectual Disability and Support Services Specialized Education for Students with Intellectual Disabilities. These were analyzed in categories, which allowed the detection of concepts related to disability, the interaction between specialized and regular teacher'; the use of tools and finally the assessment of students with intellectual disabilities. It is estimated that, in general, the materials analyzed permeated some important issues related to intellectual disability. Although, as instructional materials for teacher training in the SEA nationwide, it is understood that some important aspects may have been neglected or unsuccessful, because of a political and theoretical positioning of some of its authors. As a conclusion it is suggested to conduct further exploratory research, bibliographic, for the analysis and the review of instructional materials for special education teachers preparation in distance education, with the expectation that the findings may somehow contribute to discussions about instructional materials.
