Fatores que influenciam nas dificuldades de aprendizagem de alunos do segundo ano do ensino fundamental

Abstract

This research investigated the main causes of pupils’ learning disabilities in the second grade of elementary school, in the State School Cônego Afonso Scherer, from Santa Maria-RS Herval. The research subjects, quantitative speaking, were students from the school and the tools used were a questionnaire, observations and interviews. The various aspects that are part of pupils’ academic, private and social life have been addressed on each of them. An analysis along with the medical experts who monitor these students has also been carried. The survey revealed the following: that social factors influence on the learning disability as well as health problems, which may be cultural or genetic and these factors make the students need assistance from experts, such as educational psychologists , psychologists and even psychiatrists, so that students can, again, have a higher level of learning. Most of these students could be spared from this "problem" if parents had more information or assistance to have a structured family. This research was important because it provides the school community with tools that can help develop an action plan that may minimize school learning disabilities.
