A utilização dos blogs para auxiliar no processo de leitura e escrita de alunos com déficit cognitivo

Abstract

This article deals with the issue of inclusive education and building knowledge (reading and writing) for students with cognitive impairment, through the Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs). Its primary purpose is to reflect on how the use of blogs helps in the process of reading and writing of students with cognitive impairment. The blogosphere was the setting chosen to promote such a study, considering that through her own students develop the creative capacity and begin to express their communication in the texts produced by them, in a simple and dynamic. This initiative aims to help reading and writing, especially students with cognitive impairment so that they do not nullify the activities in the classroom. The methodology used in this research was based on ethnographic research with application of a teaching unit previously completed during the second half of 2009. The fieldwork took place at the Municipal School Ivo Tassis in Governador Valadares, Minas Gerais, with students from 2 nd AC and 3 nd AC (7th and 8th grades) with proper monitoring, which allowed developing projects for the issues that needed further study and that were worked on blogs by the 35 students who proposed to develop the activity, discussing the questions and needs for solution.
