Tabela periódica inclusiva: a proposição de um material didático para o ensino dos elementos químicos representativos para estudantes surdos do ensino médio

Abstract

This paper aims to propose an inclusive teaching material for the teaching of representative elements to assist in the teaching and learning process of deaf students in regular high school. This material was planned with a focusing on the Brazilian Sign Language - Libras for deaf students in high school. The research has a qualitative character. This is a proposal of the interactive periodic table, focused on educational technologies, which brings together the visual support, so that students have clear access to the information of the elements already mentioned, adapted from signs in Libras, specifically valuing the visual/expressive and conceptual, from the information and curiosities of chemistry, seeking to meet possible demands for inclusive chemistry classes. Thus, we present a teaching material that brings the representative elements using the support of QR'codes to demonstrate the signs related to them. We hope that this material can contribute to the teaching of the contents of the periodic table for deaf students, promoting inclusion in the teaching of chemistry in regular school.
