INCLUSIVE EDUCATION AND SCIENCE TEACHER TRAINING: THE ROLE OF UNIVERSITIES IN THE PREPARATION OF FUTURE TEACHERS

The inclusion of students with special educational needs (SEN) in the regular education system is today the main guideline for public policies on education at federal, state and municipal levels. However, are graduate students from higher education institutions actually prepared to provide adequate care for people with SEN? To answer this question we investigated the views of students in the second and last terms from Physics, Chemistry and Biology undergraduate programs to determine their perception on inclusive education and the lack of courses in the field in federal universities undergraduate programs.
