Attitudes dos professores portugueses perante a educação inclusiva
Publicado Sep 19, 2024
Resumen
Introdução: Para a implementação da educação inclusiva, é fundamental a disponibilidade dos professores em efetuar adaptações pessoais, organizacionais e académicas nas suas salas de aulas, disponibilidade essa que é influenciada pelas suas atitudes face à educação inclusiva. Não existem ainda muitos estudos quantitativos acerca das atitudes dos professores portugueses perante a educação inclusiva. O objetivo deste estudo é o de analisar as atitudes dos professores portugueses em relação à educação inclusiva, bem como o efeito de características demográficas e profissionais sobre essas mesmas atitudes. Metodologia: Foi proposto um estudo quantitativo, com um desenho não experimental, descritivo e correlacional, com recurso à aplicação de um questionário demográfico e da escala MATIES (Multidimensional Attitudes toward Inclusive Education Scale). A amostra foi formada por 437 professores do ensino básico e secundário de Portugal. Resultados: Os resultados mostram que os professores têm uma atitude geral positiva em relação à educação inclusiva. Não foi identificada influência das variáveis de género, idade ou tipo de professor na atitude dos professores perante a educação inclusiva. Discussão: Os professores da amostra demonstram um bom nível de confiança na sua capacidade para trabalhar no âmbito da educação, mas relatam carência de formação específica nesta área. São discutidas as implicações destas evidências no campo teórico e prático, bem como as limitações do uso de escalas de avaliação de atitudes para a educação inclusiva.
