Abstract

PAGAIME, Adriana et al. SPECIAL EDUCATION IN THE PANDEMIC: STRATEGIES AND CHALLENGES IN PRIMARY EDUCATION. Cad. Pesqui. [online]. 2022, vol.52, e09665.  Epub Mar 15, 2023. ISSN 1980-5314.  https://doi.org/10.1590/198053149665.

This study analyzes the strategies and challenges identified in the beginning of the Covid-19 pandemic to the provision of schooling for special education students, particularly from the perspective of public primary education teachers. The data were generated by means of the responses of 937 teachers from across Brazil to an online questionnaire that was posted on an accessible platform and translated into Libras. Among the results, it was observed that despite pre-pandemic investments on digital technologies, remote learning was predominantly carried out using printed material, and teaching special education students was pointed out as the main challenge. It is expected that this study will contribute to mapping the implications of remote learning for special education.
