ROSSETTO, Elisabeth and IACONO, Jane Peruzo. Inclusion and higher education: pedagogical practices with students with disabilities/SEN in the perspective of historical- cultural psychology. Educação e Filosofia [online]. 2022, vol.36, n.76, pp.133-174. Epub Jan 29, 2024. ISSN 1982-596X. https://doi.org/10.14393/revedfil.v36n76a2022-60453.
The objective of this work is to discuss the process of inclusion of students with disabilities / special educational needs in Higher Education, highlighting some questions about the pedagogical practice that has been carried out at the State University of Western Paraná - UNIOESTE. It is based on Historical-Cultural Psychology that allows to understand how the process of development of the subject occurs from the study of phenomena in their historicity, in a dialectical process, contemplating the dimensions of the totality. The education of these students, based on legislation that has been expanding in recent years, needs, in most cases, some kind of specialized educational assistance as support and complementation of teaching work. The pedagogical practices carried out, historically, in most universities still present a conception of human development sustained by the biological character. It is understood that such guidelines are consistent with the formation of a man who fits the capitalist society that advocates unilateral training, with the acquisition of restricted and immediate skills. As a result, it is expected to reflect on the importance of an inclusive pedagogical practice, which contributes to the construction of a critical and conscioussubject, who can appropriate scientific knowledge and conclude his studies with quality.
