Teacher training and education of deaf: systematic review of theses and dissertations

Abstract

The 1990s and 2000s were marked by the publication of several international and national documents that influenced the current educational policies of our country. Through them, a new look for special education was instituted, which ceased to be thought in parallel with the common system and began to integrate the pedagogical proposal of the regular school. As a consequence, teacher training for basic education also needed to be reviewed. In this context, the present study aimed to understand how teacher training for the education of the deaf was discussed in theses and dissertations from 1995 to 2014. It is therefore a bibliographical research that adopted, as a methodological procedure, the Systematic Review of Literature. For access to the works, an online search was carried out in the libraries of Postgraduate Education Programs, evaluated by CAPES with a concept equal to or greater than five. Thirty-five research papers written between the years of 2009 and 2014 were found. The analysis of the studies pointed to the discussion and reflection of two major periods: of what deals with the extinct specific qualifications in Education of the Deficient of the Audio communication and what discusses a new configuration teacher training, regent and specialist. It is concluded that, for most studies, the specificities of the education of the deaf have not been contemplated in the initial formation, by restricting the teacher's formation to the discipline Libras. This reality has demanded from the teachers the search for continuing education, the focus of most research.
