A FORMAÇÃO DE PROFESSORES NO BRASIL NO CONTEXTO DA EDUCAÇÃO ESPECIAL

Abstract

This study aims to analyze teacher education in Brazil from the earliest stages, the legal bases, the specific characteristics in the context of special education and the requirements for an inclusive education. Regular education as a principle of inclusion-oriented education requires professionals who act with legal principles and assertiveness in their educational practices, making necessary adjustments and giving everyone an education of accessible quality. Training of professionals is the greatest tool to enable quality education and, in particular, to ensure adequate support for specific care for children with disabilities. Based on legal norms and methodological instruments, we will raise issues related to the curriculum of the professionals who are at the forefront of special education, its legal frameworks, characteristics that marked the special education in Brazil, the first professional training in the area, historical foundations and conceptual bases based in practices disseminated in the principles of the Declaration of Salamanca.
