Abstract

This search started from the interest of thinking about how learning has been conceived at school. Otherwise, I treat about the learning of a specific group: students with Pervasive Developmental Disorders (authists and psychotics). Based on that, this study has as objective to identify the Social Representations of teachers of a school from Santa Maria/RS, about the learning of those students. The theoretical referents used here, were the psychanalist theory and the social representations theory. Throught the analisys of the mirror phase and social representation, it was stablished a relation between both theories. This way, the maping of social representation stablished the field in which the person of learning is antecipated by the teacher with a qualifying approach, were used as instruments for the search of collecting datas of interviews, examined through the analisys of content, and personal observations at school. The analisys of the data, showed that the socialization is seen for the biggest part of the teachers as the main objective of e learning of those students. Besides that, it revealed the influence of social representations about the learning capacity of those people on the teaching and learning processes. Therefore, been able to remean the social representations that point out to the direction of the incapacity of learning of those student, and the own social representation is essencial to your school-learning process.
