Desenvolvimento de kit didático interativo no ensino de física para alunos com deficiência visual

Abstract

This study addresses the disparity between school inclusion guidelines and the practical reality of the classroom, focusing on the challenge of teaching Physics to visually impaired students. Given the abstract and visual nature of the subject, the research investigates how lesson planning and delivery can be made accessible to ensure the active participation of these students. The overall objective is to create and adapt tactile, interactive educational kits—developed using 3D modeling and printing—to serve as multisensory pedagogical aids. The theoretical framework is grounded in the historical evolution of Special and Inclusive Education, covering key milestones such as the Salamanca Statement (1994) and the Law of Directives and Bases of National Education (Law No. 9.394/1996), while also addressing fundamental concepts regarding wave motion, light dispersion, projectile motion, and electric fields. Methodologically, the research employs a qualitative approach, with expected results derived from the construction and completion of these tactile educational kits, as well as an assessment of their positive impact in the classroom for visually impaired students.
