Abstract

The aim of this work was to verify possible methodologies for teaching Geography for deaf students in regular schools. The development of methodologies that include deaf students and that emphasize learning is possible through the use of different languages, such as cartography, photography, and others. It should be emphasized that the difficulties in teaching and learning for people with hearing loss is done by many taboos and prejudices that insist on staying in school, demonstrating the lack in the preparation of education professionals to teach deaf students in inclusive classrooms regular education. Although communication is present as one of the problems in the teaching process, as the mother tongue of the person is deaf sign language, named in Brazil LIBRAS - Brazilian Sign Language, and your second language is the Portuguese language. This indicates that there are many barriers to be overcome in the teacher-student relationship. Nevertheless, it was found that it is possible to contemplate the process of teaching and learning in teaching Geography through Bilingualism and Visual Pedagogy. There are a lot of questions, doubts, uncertainties and challenges that permeate this delicate field of Special Education, but that should always be studied deeply and primarily fetch overcome the preconception that involves the inclusion and education of deaf students in regular education.
