TEIXEIRA JUNIOR, José Gonçalves  and  SOUZA, Nayara Costa. Analysis of the conceptions of teacher trainers of Chemistry on the inclusion of students with disabilities in higher education. Ensino em Re-Vista [online]. 2019, vol.26, n.2, pp.437-456.  Epub Aug 31, 2023. ISSN 1983-1730.  https://doi.org/10.14393/er-v26n2a2019-7.

This work aims to investigate the conceptions of chemistry teacher trainers about the possibilities and potential difficulties to teach chemical concepts for graduates with disabilities. More than a diagnosis, it is understood that teachers' conceptions of inclusion also influence the conceptions of future chemistry teachers. To that end, the trainers of a higher education institution were interviewed to get them to reflect on their methodologies, the needs of adaptation, as well as the possible difficulties in dealing with these students. The results pointed out that although some of the teachers have been receptive to the possibilities of educating students with special educational needs, none of them feel prepared to act in diversity.

Keywords : Inclusive education; Teacher training in chemistry; Teacher conception.
