Trabalhos sobre Síndrome de Down apresentados no Congresso Brasileiro de Educação Especial de 2016 a 2021

Abstract

The objective of this study is to reveal what the works on Down Syndrome published at the Brazilian Congress of Special Education (CBEE) say between the years 2016 and 2021. The period was chosen due to the current nature of the work and aims to specifically list the subthemes developed, the objectives and the main results. It is a bibliographical research, in which the CBEE Annals for the years 2016, 2018 and 2021 were consulted, through a prior reading of the title, abstract and keywords to identify the objectives and organize the work by subthemes. Subsequently, we carried out a more systematic reading to explore the material and, based on the subtopics, correlate the objectives with the main results, pointing out their contributions and even the gaps. The main results showed seven subthemes, in descending order: pedagogical/intervention/learning; inclusion; evaluation/testing/mapping; family; identity/representations/perceptions; quality of life. We conclude that the teaching and learning process and school inclusion continue to be a challenge, involving aspects such as family support, procedural evaluation, subjectivity, quality of life and technology.
