Discursos e Práticas na Inclusão de Índios Surdos em Escolas Diferenciadas Indígenas

The interface between special education and indigenous education is a new and complex research field, drawing boundaries not defined yet between two fields of knowledge being constituted. This paper investigated the discourses of differentiated indigenous education, inclusive education and deaf education, and also recorded the perceived effectiveness of educational policies in the discourse of staff working in indigenous schools. The analysis, in addition to locating the indigenous deaf person in a differentiated culture, has identified the problems, possibilities and specific needs of communication in the school environment. The results indicated the need to create spaces for dialogue with the indigenous school community, so that the issue of deaf education is discussed and built collectively.
