O ENSINO DE LIBRAS NA FORMAÇÃO DE PROFESSORES: UM OLHAR SOBRE O CURSO DE GRADUAÇÃO EM PEDAGOGIA DO CAMPUS UFT ARRAIS - TO

Abstract

This research consists of a curricular analysis of Libras offer in the undergraduate course in Pedagogy at the Federal University of Tocantins (UFT), Campus Arraias - TO. Driven by reflections about the importance and attention given to teacher training as provided in Decree 5.626 of December 22, 2005, recognized and regulated by Law No. 10,436/02, we note the need to analyse its implementation at the University. From the understanding of the history of deaf education in the country and knowledge about Libras and the deaf person, we started to analyse the Political Pedagogical Project (2007) and its reformulation in 2019. The notion that the curriculum is an instrument with the ability to structure schooling, as defended by Sacristán (2013), helps us to define the approach in which this investigation is built. Thus, based on the studies by Quadros (1997), Rossi (2010) and Rosa (2013), we emphasize the importance of the Libras discipline in higher education so that, after graduation, teachers can integrate, interact and train children, young people and adults.
