VALENTIM, Fernanda Oscar Dourado and OLIVEIRA, Anna Augusta Sampaio de. Avaliação da aprendizagem e deficiência intelectual na perspectiva de professores do ensino comum. Rev. Diálogo Educ. [online]. 2013, vol.13, n.40, pp.851-871. ISSN 1981-416X.
The aim of this study was to identify and analyze the conceptions of a group of teachers in cycle-1 elementary school on intellectual disability and assessment of school learning. It is a qualitative research that used a semi-structured interview script for its investigation. The teachers' reports showed some weakness and lack of preparation to deal with the inclusion of pupils with intellectual disabilities, and consequently difficult to assess their learning conditions. It was also found that the assessment used by them was characterized by sluggish and it was based mainly on the use of quantitative measuring instruments. Such instruments shortly guide the process of teaching and learning, consequently do not contribute to effective the inclusion of these school students.
Keywords : Intellectual Disabilities; Pedagogical Evaluation; Conception of Teacher.
