Educação financeira escolar para estudantes com deficiência visual

Abstract

The objective of this research was to investigate the production of meanings by students with visual impairment for tasks in Financial Education and to evaluate, by studying the statements of those subjects, possibilities in Basic Education with the didactic-pedagogical proposition available to students without such deficiency. The research had a qualitative investigation approach and used the Semantic Fields Model as theoretical reference. Field research was developed and, after analysis under the light of this Model, it was believed that blind students can produce meanings for money and diverse financial situations involved in Financial Education. Therefore, even considering the local reality in which this study took place, it is suggested that the didactic material generated for the classroom may be used both for this group of students and for those without any deficiency. Such Educational Product generated by research offers tasks in Braille for use by blind teachers and students in classroom of Elementary School.
