As consequências das produções de diagnósticos para o percurso escolar do estudante

Abstract

This article refers to a work of completion for the Special Education Course, licentiate, UFSM. The study aimed to investigate the consequences of diagnostic productions for the student’s school course with regard to barriers and benefits for their learning, social and emotional development and school inclusion. The methodological procedures that guided the research were based on the method proposed in articles of systematic reviews, being defined the Scientific Electronic Library Online (SciELO) database for data collection, in which ten articles were selected. The results indicate that the search for a diagnosis, in most cases, is limited to classifications and labels, since this practice supports the processes of medicalization and pathologization. Some results indicate that there are benefits with the establishment of the diagnosis, because the teachers and parents say they feel safer in the interventions and benefits for the student in terms of learning, socio- emotional development and school inclusion.
