Experiências de estudantes com deficiência visual na Universidade Eduardo Mondlane na cidade de Maputo

Abstract

This research analyses the experiences of visually impaired students in two university halls of Eduardo Mondlane University (UEM) in the city of Maputo. From the literature consulted on the process of integrating students with visual impairments, I I identified two perspectives, the first of which argues that students with visual impairments should be included in students with visual impairments should be included in regular classes like other students. second perspective argues that students with visual impairments should have the recognise the other, their possibilities, their specific needs, their special educational needs, cultural differences. This literature makes it possible to understand the advantages that the introduction of special universities and minimise some of the problems of integration into regular classes or segregation in or segregation into exclusive classes for these students, and would also It would also make it possible to recognise others, their possibilities and their specific needs. In the meantime, it remains to be seen what kind of responses students will have from their areas of to higher education Once I had realised the limitations of the two perspectives mentioned above, I carried out an ethnographic research in two university residences on the campus of the Eduardo Mondlane University (UEM) in Maputo. Eduardo Mondlane University (UEM) in Maputo, where I realised that students with visual impairments I realised that visually impaired students face learning difficulties in their areas of origin and from these adverse and from these adverse issues they adopt different learning strategies to cope with their difficulties and continue their studies. Once they are aware of these difficulties, visually impaired students also show the capacity for resilience in the context of learning and living at home. Contrary to studies related to the integration process of visually impaired students, which are restricted to the difficulties they experience during their teaching and learning process, this research shows the level of resilience on the part of students from their areas of University (TRADUÇAO NOSSA)
