| Sumario: | This work is part of the research carried out as a conclusion of the full degree course in Physics at the State University of Rio de Janeiro (UERJ). This paper seeks to discuss the teaching of Physics at the university level in the current context of inclusive education for people with visual impairments. A questionnaire was developed that serves as a discussion tool on the inclusion of visually impaired students based on the answers given by the professors of a Physics Department. These teachers were asked about their training, their teaching practice and the teaching of Physics to students with visual impairment. Teacher training, or lack thereof, is problematic for the trulyinclusion of students with special needs at an educational level. Teachers are little prepared to deal with different student specificities. It was found that UERJ as an Institution only helps these students to access university education without showing any incentives for their permanence. The teachers are not supported by the UERJ so that their practice becomes really inclusive. Thus, school inclusion at the university level is not yet a reality within the Institute of Physics of this Institution. |
