Abstract

COSTAS, Fabiane Adela Tonetto  and  SELAU, Bento. On Fundamentos de defectología and the development of Special Education teachers in Brazil. Educação. Porto Alegre [online]. 2018, vol.41, n.3, pp.401-410.  Epub July 05, 2019. ISSN 1981-2582.  https://doi.org/10.15448/1981-2582.2018.3.31865.

This text aimed at confirming whether the book Fundamentos de defectología (VYGOTSKI, 1997) constitutes the official documents that compose the National Policy on Special Education from the Perspective of Inclusive Education, issued by SECADI/MEC/Brazil. A search was conducted on its official didactic materials but this book was not found. A new search revealed that it was used as a reference to post-graduate final projects (three Master’s thesis and a doctoral dissertation), to Research Groups n. 15 – Special Education – and n. 20 – Psychology of Education – at ANPEd (a research and three discussion texts) and to books and journals (two book chapters and nine articles published by journals), totaling nineteen studies. Two of them refer to the book in the area of Teacher Education, specifically in specialized educational assistance, suggesting that it has been poorly disseminated in continuing Teacher Education.

Keywords : Defectology; National Policy; Teacher Education; Special Education.
