SALDANHA, Gilda Maria Maia Martins  and  SIMOES, Regina Rovigati. Educação escolar hospitalar: o que mostram as pesquisas?. Rev. bras. educ. espec. [online]. 2013, vol.19, n.03, pp.447-464. ISSN 1413-6538.

The goal of the study was to analyze the evolution and the main approaches regarding education offered to children during hospitalization reported in scientific articles posted online in the last fifteen years (1996 to 2010). The methodology used was state of the art, and 82 articles were found on the internet (Scielo and Google Scholar) and interpreted through content analysis. The results were organized according to 5 categories: Conceptions and Meaning (25,61%); Education and Health Interaction (15,85%); Pedagogical Practices and Didactic Curricular Configurations (23,17%); Historical, organizational and legal aspects (13,42%) and Teacher Preparation (21,95%), showing the need for increasing the focus on teacher preparation, student experience undergoing medical treatment, the reintegration process in school and pedagogical practices with emphasis on didactics and curriculum. The results further indicated the urgent increase of public policies needed to consolidate schooling for children undergoing medical treatment. The results helped to understand how this type of education has been carried out in different regions of the country, by presenting students’, teachers’, parents’ and university and hospital researchers’ points of view.
