CAMINHOS DA INCLUSÃO: UMA REVISÃO INTEGRATIVA SOBRE MÉTODOS PEDAGÓGICOS PARA O ENSINO DE ALUNOS COM AUTISMO

Abstract

Given the growing number of students with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) enrolled in regular classes, it is essential that teachers use adapted pedagogical practices that favor the academic and social development of these students. This study aimed to identify, through an integrative literature review, the main teaching methods applied to students with ASD. Five scientific articles, published between 2018 and 2024, located in the Scopus and Google Scholar databases were selected. The study highlights methods such as Augmented and Alternative Communication (AAC), joint development methods, individualized curricular adaptation, pedagogical diversity, and the use of visual and technological resources, which have proven effective in promoting the inclusion and development of students with ASD. The analysis also revealed the importance of continuing teacher training and the construction of structured routines. In general, studies indicate that teaching students with ASD requires integrated, adapted and collaborative approaches that combine different strategies to meet the individual needs of students, ensuring not only their learning, but also their participation and well-being at school.
