ESTRATEGIAS DE ENSINO PARA ALFABETIZAR ESTUDANTES COM DEFICIÊNCIA VISUAL

Abstract

This study addressed the challenge of identifying effective teaching strategies for literacy education of students with visual impairments. The main objective was to analyze and discuss various pedagogical approaches and the use of assistive technologies to facilitate the learning process for these students. The methodology consisted of a literature review, focusing on works that explore inclusive educational practices and the use of adaptive and technological resources in teaching for people with visual impairments.The findings indicated that adaptive strategies, including the use of tactile materials such as Braille books and three-dimensional models, as well as the integration of assistive technologies, like educational software and screen reading devices, are importante for promoting inclusion and accessibility. The analysis highlighted the significance of educator training for the effective implementation of these strategies and the continuous need for the development of accessible assistive technologies.The final considerations emphasize the need for genuinely inclusive educational practices, allowing students with visual impairments to fully participate in the educational process. The importance of public policies and initiatives that encourage research and innovation in assistive technologies, as well as the training of educators qualified to meet the specific needs of these students, was underscored.
