A perspectiva do ensino de música para o discente cego nos cursos de música licenciatura das universidades públicas de São Luís do Maranhão

Abstract

The objective of this study was to analyze how the Music Degree courses at the Federal University of Maranhão and the State University of Maranhão operate in the context of inclusion, accessibility and teacher preparation for the education of blind students, as well as the importance of pedagogical adaptations, use of assistive technologies and software. The methodology adopted to carry out this study was qualitative and consisted of a scientific research method that emphasized the subjective nature of the object analyzed, based on bibliographic and field research. Another element was the application of an interview to the tenured professors of these Universities. During the development of the study, the concepts about blindness were presented, addressing issues of the Braille musical writing system, in addition to the perspectives of this teaching in the Music Degree course. To support our discussion, we sought to support the theoretical pillar of our work with ESCOBAR (2015), BONILHA (2010), TOMÉ (2003). Our conclusion points to challenges that go beyond the teaching-learning process, since the limitations lie in the physical spaces and the interests of teachers
