Abstract

The research aimed to reflect on the language teaching process for the deaf and the didactic- pedagogical actions in the specialized educational service - AEE with a focus on pedagogical mediation through didactic materials, seeking ways for a bilingual educational environment. As for the theoretical-methodological framework, it was based on the qualitative paradigm with an interpretive basis, whose procedure used documental research and case study. With regard to the education of the deaf, the works of Quadros (1997), Damázio (2007), Vygotksy (2010) and Godoi (2019) guided our discussions. To contemplate the theme presented, the dissertation was structured in six parts, namely: author’s presentation; the introduction; the contributions of professional master's degrees in the field of education for the deaf; the Specialized Educational Service for the deaf, which aimed to discuss legal aspects, language teaching for the deaf, pedagogical mediation and Vygotsky's influence on teaching practice, in addition to the didactic pedagogical actions developed in the AEE environment for the deaf. The research methodology is presented in the fifth chapter. Finally, the results of the research that resulted in the Educational Product are presented. Data collection provided direct contact with the AEE environments and through the questionnaire answered by the working professionals, with the monitoring of some consultations, as well as the handling and photographs of the materials available in the two AEE rooms, a greater understanding of the practical reality. Thus, it was concluded that the educational product, in an educational media format – website, will expand and collaborate in the teaching and learning strategies of deaf students received in schools in the language acquisition phase.
