As práticas nas escolas ao longo da Europa variam desde a integração parcial de alunos até à inclusão total. As crianças oriundas das escolas de ensino especial têm acesso a currículos diferenciados. Algumas continuam a frequentar escolas de educação especial enquanto outras frequentam as escolas regulares sendo integradas na vida dessas escolas. Por outro lado, outras estão no ensino regular participando apenas em aulas seleccionadas em função das suas aptidões. A inclusão efectiva exige que se desvie o foco da atenção da criança para a escola e a sua comunidade. As práticas inclusivas requerem que o professor amplie os seus horizontes e perspectivas implicando maior colaboração e trabalho de equipa na escola. Vivenciar a inclusão representa uma mudança radical no ensino. Modificar o modo de ensinar é o objectivo do projecto. O objectivo da Comunidade Europeia será a inclusão completa. Porém, as leis nos vários países europeus variam, o que faz com que as escolas dos vários países parceiros no projecto estejam em diferentes níveis deste processo. O projecto IRIS (Improvement through Research in Inclusive Schools) tem o objectivo de melhorar as escolas de forma a que estas possam progressivamente caminhar em direcção à inclusão. É para ajudá-las a ser mais eficientes e, portanto, mais efectivas. Nesta Conferência Internacional apresentaremos o projecto IRIS e os seus produtos. Especificamente, apresentaremos materiais de avaliação das práticas dos professores - Aide memoir and bookmark - e uma reflexão global acerca dos planos educativos individuais nas escolas Europeias. Além disso, apresentaremos propostas para a formação de professores baseadas em práticas inclusivas e uma webpage de suporte à disseminação dos pacotes e materiais desenvolvidos. 3 International Conference “Changing Practices in Inclusive Schools” COMISSÃO DE HONRA Jorge Quina Ribeiro de Araújo Reitor da Universidade de Évora, Universidade de Évora (PT) José Lopes Cortes Verdasca Director da Direcção Regional do Alentejo, Direcção Regional de Educação do Alentejo (PT) Filomena Pereira Directora de Serviços - Direcção de Serviços da Educação Especial e Apoio Sócio-Educativo, DirecçãoGeral de Inovação e Desenvolvimento Curricular (PT) Fernanda de Sousa Gonçalves Carvalho Ramos Governadora Civil de Évora, Governo Civil de Évora (PT) José Ernesto d'Oliveira M/I Presidente da Câmara Municipal de Évora, Câmara Municipal de Évora (PT) Maria Isabel Duarte Directora da Agência Nacional PROALV, Agência Nacional PROALV (PT) Márcia Mendes Coordenadora de Unidade da Educação Escolar e Educação de Adultos, Agência Nacional PROALV (PT) Joan Badia I Pujol General Director of Innovation Área, Departament d’Educació, Generalitat de Catalunya (ES) Vicent Villena Serrano Director of Territorial Services of Tarragona, Departament d’Educació, Generalitat de Catalunya (ES) Jesús Viñas Cirera Coordinator of Educational Services, Departament d’Educació, Generalitat de Catalunya (ES) 4 International Conference “Changing Practices in Inclusive Schools” COMISSÃO CIENTÍFICA Adelinda Candeias; António Borralho; Clarinda Pomar; Graça Duarte Santos; Heldemerina Pires; Maria Elisa Chaleta; Maria Luísa Grácio; Maria Nazaret Trindade & Vítor Franco Centro de Investigação em Educação e Psicologia/Universidade de Évora (PT) Carme Mnegrillo Falcó Departament d’Educació, Generalitat de Catalunya (ES) Cristina Albuquerque Faculdade de Psicologia e Ciências da Educação, Universidade de Coimbra (PT) David Rodrigues & Vítor Cruz Faculdade de Motricidade Humana, Universidade Técnica de Lisboa (PT) Jane Brodin Department of Child and Youth Studies, University of Stockholm (SE) José Diego Vargas; M.

(UNESCO, 1994) Inclusion is a process of addressing the diversity of needs of all learners. Inclusion further means enabling pupils to participate in the life and work of mainstream institutions to the best of their abilities, whatever their needs. Inclusive education means disabled and non-disabled children and young people learning together in ordinary educational settings. The philosophy of education that encompasses the needs of all children has 3 main threads: 1. a holistic view of children, 2. the Principle of non-segregating measures and 3. a response to the demands of the environment. Inclusive education is of uppermost importance because children have a part to play in society. An early start in mainstream settings is the best preparation for an integrated life Inclusive education offers a multidimensional approach to competencies and abilities, reducing barriers to learning and participation for all. Fourteen years after the Salamanca declaration inclusive education is still a faraway concept for many schools and teachers. Practice within schools across Europe varies from the partial integration to full inclusion of pupils. The stages of the process are evident in all countries. Effective inclusion demands a change of focus from the child to the school and its community. With Inclusive practice the teacher needs to become broader in outlook and approach and work more collaboratively throughout the school. The aim of the IRIS project is to develop, implement and disseminate materials for initial teacher training and inservice training for all educational staff, to change attitudes and beliefs about the learning of all children and to recognise that the learning potential of any child is the result of many factors. Key-words: Inclusion, Inclusive Education, School for all children, IRIS project 15 International Conference “Changing Practices in Inclusive Schools” Why did we make a new project on inclusion Eva Bernart; Co-coordinator of the IRIS project; Center for Special Needs Education (AT) Jean-Claude De Vreese, Co-ordinator of the IRIS project; Service Général de L’ Inspection/ Inspection de L’Enseignement Spécialisé (BE) Carme Negril Falcó; Generalitat de Catalunya.

Everyone has a part to play. Inclusive education is another way of thinking special and offers a multidimensional approach to competencies and abilities, reducing barriers to learning and participation for all students – not only those with impairments or those who are categorised as having special educational needs (CSIE, Centre for studies on Inclusive education http://inclusion.uwe.ac.uk/). Therefore all children have the right to receive the kind of education that does not discriminate on grounds of disability, ethnicity, religion, language, gender, capabilities and so on. Practice within schools across Europe varies from the partial integration to full inclusion of students. The stages of the process are evident in all countries. Effective inclusion demands a change of focus from the child to the school and its community. To improve teaching and learning we need to develop a new attitude based in research and focussed on an understanding of pupils´ needs and strengths. The overall aim of the IRIS project was and still is the development, implementation and dissemination of materials for initial training and in-service training for teachers and other educational staff. Key-words: Inclusion, Inclusive Education, School for all children, IRIS project, Teacher training 16 International Conference “Changing Practices in Inclusive Schools” CONFERENCE International overview of inclusion Mark Vaughan (UK) -Educational Change Consultancy Abstract This presentation will welcome the arrival or Article 24 in the 2006 UN Convention on the rights of disabled people, and refer briefly to the international ‘road’ that has brought us to this landmark document. It then discusses a variety of human rights and social justice arguments that support the development of inclusion for all in mainstream education, pointing out that the term ‘Special Educational Needs (SEN)’ is not a helpful phrase. Finally, it asks if the glass is half full or half empty – and suggests there is more that unites and strengthens the development of inclusive education than divides it. Key-words: SEN, Inclusion, Inclusive Education 17 SIMPÓSIO - IRIS contributions to inclusive practices in Europe SIMPOSYUM/SIMPÓSIO IRIS contributions to inclusive practices in Europe Inclusive Schools: Barriers and Benefits in Some European Countries 1 1 1 1 Maria Luísa Fonseca Grácio ; António Borralho ; Adelinda Candeias ; Heldemerina Pires ; Clarinda 1 1 2 3 4 5 Pomar ; Elisa Chaleta ; Jean-Claude DeVreese ; Eva Bernart ; Carme Negril Falcó ; Jenny Evans ; 6 7 7 Natalia Cabral ; Jane Brodin ; Anna-Lena Ljusberg Universidade de Évora, Centro de Investigação em Educação e Psicologia, (PT) 1; Service Général de L’ Inspection/ Inspection de L’Enseignement Spécialisé (BE) 2; Center for Special Needs Education (AT)3; Generalitat de Catalunya. Serveis Territorials a Tarragona (ES)4; Devon County Council (UK)5; Agrupamento de Escolas Eugénio de Andrade/Paranhos (PT)6; Department of Child and Youth 7 Studies/Stockholm University (SE) Abstract Inclusion is an increasingly problematic in the field of a more equitable society and education, involving changes in attitudes, knowledge and practices and also of different systems of human life. Within the broad spectrum of areas and scenarios in which inclusion or exclusion are present, educational area and school in particular, emerge as critical both by providing, or not, experiences of inclusion and because of the consequences and effects that actions that are carried out in our days or in a near future. In this paper we discuss subjects’ conceptions from six European countries, about inclusive classroom and school as well as the barriers, obstacles and benefits perceived by them nowadays.

Resumo A inclusão é uma problemática cada vez mais premente na senda de uma educação e sociedade mais equitativas implicando mudanças ao nível das mentalidades, saberes e práticas dos indivíduos e dos vários sistemas enquadradores da vida humana. Dentro do largo espectro das áreas e cenários em que a inclusão ou exclusão se encontram presentes a área educativa, e a escola em particular, emergem como cenários críticos quer pela vivência da inclusão que proporcionam, ou não, quer pelas consequências e efeitos multiplicadores que as acções aí realizadas têm ou podem vir a ter. Nesta comunicação abordaremos as concepções de sujeitos de seis diferentes países europeus sobre escola e sala de aula inclusivas bem como as barreiras, obstáculos e benefícios por eles percepcionados no momento actual1.

Serveis Territorials a Tarragona (ES) ; Devon County Council (UK) ; Agrupamento de Escolas Eugénio de Andrade/Paranhos (PT)6; Department of Child and Youth Studies/Stockholm University (SE)7 Abstract Inclusive schools development is largely based on the professional quality of teachers and other educational staff. Thus initial and lifelong teacher education emerges as a key factor in promoting inclusive schools and classrooms, by ensuring the domain of knowledge and skills necessary for the development of inclusion promoting practices and, therefore, quality education. In this paper we intend to present the view of teachers and other educational staff, in several European countries, about the role and contributions that teacher education should have in the promotion of inclusive school, and also to point out some strategies and practices that should be considered by all those who try to promote inclusion in their classroom and improving the quality of their teaching. Key-words: Inclusion, Inclusive classroom, Teacher education, Teaching strategies. Resumo O desenvolvimento da escola inclusiva assenta, em grande medida, na qualidade profissional dos(as) professores(as) e outros agentes educativos. Deste modo, a formação de professores (inicial e contínua) emerge como um factor fundamental para a promoção da escola e da sala de aula inclusiva, devendo garantir o domínio dos conhecimentos e das competências necessárias para o desenvolvimento de práticas promotoras de inclusão e, consequentemente de qualidade educativa. Com esta comunicação pretendemos, por um lado, apresentar a opinião de professores(as) e outros agentes educativos, de vários países europeus, sobre o papel e os contributos que a formação de professores deverá ter ao nível da promoção da escola inclusiva e, por outro lado, relevar um conjunto de estratégias e práticas que deverão ser consideradas por todos(as) aqueles(as) que procuram promover a inclusão na sua sala de aula e a melhorar a qualidade do seu ensino.

Serveis Territorials a Tarragona (ES)4; Devon County Council (UK)5; Agrupamento de Escolas Eugénio de Andrade/Paranhos (PT)6; Department of Child and Youth 7 Studies/Stockholm University (SE) Abstract Inclusive Education assumptions provide the development of individualized and personalized educational assessment and intervention in order to improve children and youngsters with special educational needs competences, focalized on their empowerment and social inclusion. Before that, is a challenge to us think, rethink and renew the practice of identifying and assessing pupils with SEN (permanent or temporary) based on the new theoretical assumptions of inclusive assessment. Pursuing this goal we present a theoretical review of what should be the guidelines for inclusive assessment and description of the evaluation procedures applied in several European countries. Finally we highlight the relevance of this conceptual and practical change in SEN’s assessment focused on inclusion assumptions. Such change should being sustained by a teacher educational model directed towards this goal as well as by the development of appropriate tools and procedures that sustained inclusive assessment. Key-words: SEN, Inclusive Education, Inclusive Assessment, Teachers´Education. Resumo Os pressupostos da Educação Inclusiva prevêem o desenvolvimento de estratégias de avaliação e intervenção educativas individualizadas e personalizadas que possibilitem a expansão das várias competências da criança e jovem com Necessidades educativas especiais, com vista à sua autonomização e inclusão social. Perante isto coloca-se-nos o desafio de pensar, repensar e renovar as práticas de identificação e avaliação dos alunos com várias NEE (permanentes ou temporárias), à luz dos novos pressupostos teóricos da avaliação inclusiva. Na prossecução deste objectivo apresentamos uma revisão teórica sobre o que devem ser as linhas orientadoras para a avaliação inclusiva e uma descrição dos processos de avaliação aplicados em diversos países europeus. A finalizar destacamos a pertinência desta mudança conceptual e prática na avaliação das NEE, focalizada nos pressupostos da inclusão ser sustentada numa formação de professores direccionada para este objectivo, assim como no desenvolvimento de instrumentos apropriados.

Serveis Territorials a Tarragona (ES) ; Devon County Council (UK) ; Agrupamento de Escolas Eugénio de Andrade/Paranhos (PT)6; Universidade de Évora, Centro de Investigação em Educação e Psicologia, (PT) 7 Abstract IRIS focus on Inclusion and School improvements and embrace all children in a school for all. In order to improve teaching and learning new attitudes that must be developed among staff (teachers, headmasters and other professionals) based on research and with focus on pupils’ strengths and weaknesses. The diversity of the pupils should be regarded as a resource, not a problem. This will support effective planning and intervention, including the use of an Individual Education Plan (IEP) for all children in the inclusive classroom. Educating pupils with diverse prerequisites as well as diverse social and economic backgrounds, demands a variety of support systems in school, such as tools for assessment, IEPs and materials for basic and in-service training of teachers. To support the teachers is essential but not enough, each individual pupil also needs support in education based on his/her limitations to succeed. This presentation is based on three counter stones: The right to education, Disability policies and the Availability of support system in school. My presentation is based on brief reports from the partners in Austria, Belgium, Catalonia (Spain), Portugal, Sweden and United Kingdom. I will highlight some of the main results of the support systems for children with disabilities in preschool and school and will also highlight some critical aspects concerning support in inclusive education. From the reports it appears that all countries seem to have a well-developed support system in school, but there is still a discrepancy between policy and reality. My conclusion is that there are no simple solutions to include all children in school as each child is unique. But the time has come when changes must be reality and not just a vision. Key-words: Educational support, Inclusion, Disabilities. 21 SIMPÓSIO - IRIS contributions to inclusive practices in Europe Evaluation of IRIS Project Marius Domingo 1 Departament d’Educació/ Generalitat de Catalunya (ES)1 Abstract The evaluation of the process has to be useful for improving the form of working as the different members in order to achieve the marked goals.

This will lead to a general discussion about the importance of inclusion in schools, the advantages, the human rights arguments and get participants to start talking about how they could change their local early years and school settings to be more inclusive. 24 WORKSHOPS - Promoting inclusive practices Aide Memoire “Fit to Learn Bookmark” Jenny Evans Devon County Council (UK) Abstract Teaching inclusively is about creating an ethos and environment where pupils can enjoy learning, reflect, improve and grow in confidence. This is fundamental to all learning. In order to achieve those goals it is necessary for schools and teachers to create: Suitable conditions for learning for every child A learning community A Learning Environment And give Positive Instruction and Assessment The level of their inclusive practice regarding suitable conditions for learning, learning community, learning environment and instruction, Increase the level of their inclusive practice in those areas Raise awareness that good practice can meet the needs of ALL children, despite their individual needs Identify their individual needs for in - service training. Use as a checklist for assessing the quality of inclusion or assessment. The IRIS Aide Memoir helps to support inclusive practice in a variety of ways for the individual or as a whole school approach. It is a tool to encourage good practice and to give helpful and practical advice. It comprises of a bookmark and a web booklet which extends the ideas on the former. Additionally there is a section on assessment which can be used in full or as required. 25 WORKSHOPS - Promoting inclusive practices Classroom Climate In Inclusive Settings 1 2 Graça Santos ; Anna-Lena Ljusberg ; Adelinda Candeias 1 Research Center in Education and Psychology/University of Évora (PT)1; Department of Child and Youth Studies/Stockholm University (SE)2 Abstract Several studies underpin the existence of a need reflection and debate not only about the justification and understanding of inclusion, but mainly on the efforts of an analysis of actual classroom practices. This workshop intend to systematize some elements about climate in inclusive settings, namely in inclusive classroom. We will present some concepts and perspectives from different points of view (i.e. teacher, head-teacher, pupils). Many factors contribute to the classroom climate. However, most of them have predominance of affectiverelational factors, with impact on social interactions and learning processes. In this workshop/article the authors reflect on the influences and consequences of classroom climate, pointing out strategies for creating and maintaining a positive climate on inclusive classroom. These guidelines will be developed also in a perspective of teacher education. This workshop will include a formal presentation to ensure adequate basic information and some experiential activities to guide participants’ reflection about how to promote an inclusive climate. Key-words: Classroom Climate, Inclusive Settings, Attitudes, Values, Teacher Education. 26 WORKSHOPS - Promoting inclusive practices Teamwork in Inclusive School 1 Carme Mnegrillo Falcó & Maria Natália Cabral 2 Departament d’Educació, Generalitat de Catalunya (ES)1; Agrupamento de Escolas Eugénio de 2 Andrade/Paranhos(PT) Abstract This workshop seeks to analyze basic elements in classroom teamwork development. Firstly we will present the importance teamwork at inclusive schools. Then we will work on framework and its general procedures trying apply them in a classroom context. Special emphasis will be put on examining team formation, definition of the tasks and members’ roles and so on. Moreover we will identify the characteristics of effective participation, detect and redirect dysfunctional behaviours in a work group. We also try to get familiar with teamwork resources organization. Finally we will examine some examples of teamwork in inclusive schools in Europe. This workshop will include a formal presentation to ensure adequate basic information, self-assessment activities to guide participants in their reflection and small group interactive tasks to provide understanding and skills acquisition.

Vitor Cruz Faculdade de Motricidade Humana - Universidade Técnica de Lisboa Abstract Nowadays the importance of inclusive education or education for all is recognized everywhere and also in Portugal. The aim of this communication is to contribute to make the inclusive education or the education for all real. An evident mark in its active recognition was in Thailand the World Conference on Education for all, 1990. After this conference, in 1994, the UNESCO presents the Salamanca Declaration & Framework of action, which, besides redefining the concept of special educational needs, introduces the concept of the Inclusive Schooling. With the definition of the Inclusive School, comes the need to develop a coherent project, based on the child centred pedagogy, able to accept and educate all children, including the ones who are severely disabled. The main idea is that all students of an educative community shall, as far as possible, learn together, whichever his difficulties and/or abilities are. Thus, based on the pedagogic triangle - curriculum, student and teacher, we will be reflecting on how these three vertices can be seen so that we are able to build an inclusive school, where the teachers’ participation is absolutely needed. To achieve this goal, we will establish a relation between the three vertices and the three theories of intelligence. This way, we’ll be looking at Sternberg’s triarchic theory of intelligence (TTI) to reflect on the pupil and who he is, at Gardner’s Multiple Intelligence Theory (MIT) to think about what the curriculum is and about what it should not be, and at the Feuerstein’s theories of Structural Cognitive Modifiability (SCM) to consider what the teacher is and the teacher should be. Key-words: Inclusion, Student, Curriculum, Teacher, Intelligence. Inclusão: É o que Acontece ou o que Fazemos Acontecer? Resumo Um marco decisivo no seu reconhecimento activo foi a Conferência Mundial da Educação para Todos, em 1990, na Tailândia, após a qual a UNESCO, em 1994, avança com a Declaração de Salamanca onde, para além de redefinir o conceito de Necessidades Educativas Especiais, avança com o conceito de Escola Inclusiva. Com a noção de Escola Inclusiva surge a necessidade de desenvolver um projecto coerente, ancorado numa pedagogia centrada na criança, capaz de acolher e educar todas, incluindo aquelas que são gravemente desfavorecidas. Parte-se, pois, do princípio fundamental de que todos os alunos de uma comunidade educativa devem aprender juntos, na medida do possível, quaisquer que sejam as suas competências e/ou dificuldades. Deste modo, tendo como base o triângulo pedagógico – Currículo, Aluno e Professor, vamos fazer uma breve reflexão sobre como podem ser perspectivados estes três vértices para que possamos construir uma Escola Inclusiva, onde a participação dos docentes é de fundamental importância. Para tal, iremos estabelecer uma relação entre os três vértices e três teorias da Inteligência. Deste modo, apoiar-nos-emos: na Teoria Triárquica da Inteligência (TTI) de Sternberg, para reflectir sobre o Aluno e o que ele é; na Teoria das Inteligências Múltiplas (TIM) de Gardner, para incidir sobre o Currículo e o que 28 MESA1 - Percursos e Projectos para uma Escola Inclusiva ele não deve ser; e na Teoria da Modificabilidade Cognitiva (TMC) de Feuerstein, para considerar o Professor e o que ele deverá ser.

Interdisciplinary Collaboration: Ordinary Schooling of a Child with Developmental Disorder Generalized Anna Rigat Cererols Licenciada en Psicología y Pedagogía. CDIAP de Olot y la Garrotxa Abstract The inclusion of children with mental or physical handicaps in a regular school should be made in an appropriate way, it means accompanied by a multidisciplinary support in order to maximize the benefits that can derive from being in this type of schooling, achieve a suitable adjustment and encourage inclusion rather than exclusion. Our team (CDIAP) has worked with a child diagnosed with Pervasive Development Disorder (PDD) in order to make sure and safe child’s inclusion in a regular school. As you will see, to make this possible we organized a joint collaboration among a number of entities and professionals (psychologist, doctors, teaching assistants, speech therapists, social assistants etc.). CDIAP,working with a regular school, teachers, teaching assistants, and the EAP from the area, created a file about the child to ensure that he would receive a personal teacher during school hours. At the same time, in the CSMIJ the child received psychopharmacs (MEDICATION). Social services also followed up the family, assisting them economically and with basic assistance at an open centre to allow the child to acquire certain basic abilities (autonomy, basic hygiene, eating habits and relationships). In this specific case, 6 entities were working together (CDIAP, etc) to improve the development of the child. We want to ensure that the child integration is everyone’s responsibility. If we do not work together and in the same direction for the best interests of the child we will be fostering exclusion, isolation and an inability to reach their potential for the children who are within these programs. Key-words: Inclusion, General Development Disorders. Colaboración Interdisciplinar: Escolarización Ordinaria de un Niño con Trastorno Generalizado del Desarrollo (tgd). Resumen La inclusión de niños y niñas con dificultades psíquicas y/o físicas en la escuela ordinaria debe ir acompañada de un trabajo interdisciplinar para maximizar los beneficios asociados a esta escolarización, conseguir una buena adaptación y fomentar realmente la inclusión y no la exclusión. En nuestro equipo (Centro de Desarrollo Infantil y Atención Precoz -CDIAP- de la Garrotxa, Gerona, Cataluña) hemos trabajado en el caso de un niño diagnosticado de Trastorno Generalizado del Desarrollo (TGD) para mantener su inclusión en la escuela ordinaria. Como mostraremos a continuación, para llevar a cabo una correcta atención al niño hemos organizado una estrecha colaboración entre diferentes equipos asistenciales y varios tipos de profesionales (psicólogos, médicos, educadores, logopedas, asistentes sociales, etc.). Desde el CDIAP, conjuntamente con la Escuela Ordinaria -profesores, educadores y el Equipo de Asesoramiento Psicopedagógico (EAP) de la zona- se realizó un informe para conseguir que el niño tuviera una auxiliar educativa en exclusiva para él durante las horas escolares. A su vez, desde el Centro de Salud Mental Infantil y Juvenil (CSMIJ) se efectuó una atención a nivel psicofarmacológico. Desde el dispositivo de Servicios Sociales se realizó el seguimiento familiar, se facilitaron ayudas económicas a la familia y se le proporcionó la asistencia a un Centro Abierto para que el niño fuese adquiriendo los hábitos básicos necesarios (autonomía, higiene, alimentación, relación, etc.). En este caso, pues, la actuación de un total de 6 dispositivos asistenciales: CDIAP, Escuela Ordinaria, EAP, CSMIJ, Servicios Sociales y Centro Abierto, consiguió que la evolución del niño fuera muy favorable. La inclusión es responsabilidad de todos. Si no nos coordinamos en beneficio del niño y con una línea de actuación compartida acabaremos fomentando la exclusión, el olvido y la escasa potenciación de las capacidades preservadas de los niños a los que atendemos en este tipo de programas. 29 MESA1 - Percursos e Projectos para uma Escola Inclusiva Palabras-clave: Inclusión, Trastorno Generalizado del Desarrollo. Evolution of the Total Development Program for High Ability Children (PIPAC) África Borges del Rosal, Carmen M. Hernández Jorge y Elena Rodríguez Naveiras Universidad de La Laguna. España Abstract We are developing a psychoeducative intervention program addressed to high abilities children and called Total Development Program for High Ability Children (PIPAC). This program began in 2003, and in this year we are carrying out our sixth edition: PIPAC VI. Our program is focusing on high ability children and their families. This program has two subprograms: one of them, addressed to children, is a Socio-affective program, called: Discovering us and the other one is a Families’ program, called: Meetings. The objective with children is to improve intrapersonal and interpersonal knowledge and their relationships with the environment. The parents subprogram's objective is to improve families’ educative strategies and their kind of bringing up. Both of them (children and their parents) meet their instructors twice per month. The results are very positive. Parents improve their families’ educative strategies and children improve their social skills. In this work we present the evolution of this program during these six years. Key-words: Intervention program. High ability.

We focus the challenges to educational assessment and intervention based on the experience of three schools in the south of Portugal. We use a qualitative methodology, based in a case study with observations in context, document analysis and a open questionnaire. The content analysis has examined the implications of the ICF through four categories: teacher’ and other expert’ education, teamwork, impact, and process of screen-intervention-evaluation-classification. Finally we will discuss the implications and requirements derivatives from the implementation of the ICF in teachers’ and other experts’ education, in teamwork, and in the process of assessment and intervention to improve inclusive school. Key-words: ICF, SEN, Teacher Education, Assessment, Intervention, Inclusive School. Desafios à avaliação e intervenção educativa : Reflexões sobre a experiência de implementação da CIF em Portugal Centro de Investigação em Educação e Psicologia – Universidade de Évora, Portugal Resumo Tendo por base a recente evolução da legistação portuguesa e os instrumentos para a sinalização e avaliação de alunos com necessidades educativas especiais, este estudo pretende discutir as implicações práticas da implementação da CIF (Classificação Internacional de Funcionalidade, Incapacidade e Saúde) no Sistema Educativo Português. Focamos os desafios à avaliação e intervenção educativa com base na experiência de três escolas do sul de Portugal, a partir da metodologia de estudo de caso, com observações em contexto, análise documental e um questionário aberto. A análise de conteúdo permitiu analisar as implicações da CIF através de quatro categorias: a formação profissional, o trabalho de equipa, o impacto e o processo de sinalização-avaliação-classificação-intervenção. Finalmente iremos discutir as implicações e as necessidades inerentes à implementação da CIF na formação de professores e outros técnicos, no trabalho em equipa, na avaliação e intervenção, para melhorar a inclusão escolar.

After the financial and human resources needs of the EI team were responded, an evaluation study was carried on during the 3 years of the project. Inclusive practices in Early Intervention were felt as part of community responsibility and, within a dynamic research/action process, some of the EI projects and responses that had been implemented with project funding could be continued through community funding. The research/action project had a positive impact on the development of the EI team under evaluation, not only on its internal organization and functioning but also on its relation with the community structures and support to children and families. Its results and products are a valuable contribution to Portuguese Early Intervention programs. Key-words: Early Intervention, Community Development, Inclusion, Resources. A Comunidade e o Processo de Construção de Práticas Inclusivas no Âmbito da Intervenção Precoce Resumo Transcendendo as dimensões criança, família, recursos e serviços prestados, o Projecto “O processo de construção de boas práticas” consubstanciou a Intervenção Precoce (I.P.) numa perspectiva ecológica, envolvendo parcerias sociais que se co-responsabilizaram para definir, financiar e acompanhar este projecto ao longo de três anos. Assegurado o pleno funcionamento de uma equipa de I.P., foram eliminadas as necessidades expressas e procedeu-se a um estudo avaliativo específico e intrínseco ao Projecto. As práticas inclusivas em intervenção precoce foram apropriadas como responsabilidade comunitária e social, num processo dinâmico de Investigação-Acção que, findo o Projecto, garantiu a continuidade de respostas entretanto proporcionadas. O impacto do Projecto manifestou-se muito positivo, no desenvolvimento da equipa de I.P., nos seus aspectos organizativos e de funcionamento, na sua relação com a comunidade de pertença e com as crianças e famílias, em particular. As conclusões e produções do Projecto constituem uma mais valia para a Intervenção Precoce em Portugal.

Pais & Isabel Menezes Faculdade de Psicologia e de Ciências da Educação da Universidade do Porto Abstract Chronic illness, which is becoming more and more frequent, has several implications on school experience children and adolescents with chronic illness. However, in spite of being conditioned by the disease demands and incompatibilities facing school rhythms, these students, frequently, run into strategies to cope with their daily difficulties in a better way. In parallel, the comprehensive and systematic educational agents approach (peers, teachers…) tend to afford them educative opportunities really beneficial (Kyngas, 2004). It highlights the relevance of a collaborative and reflexive logic to establish between school and family in order to promote these students adaptation (Thies, 1999). This study focuses on children and adolescents with chronic illness and their experience in school settings and it intends to identify inhibitors and encouraging factors of this development, by using interviews with students. On the other side, it is our aim exploring resources and practices which are provided by school when handling with chronic illness students inclusion, based on interviews with teachers. Key-words: Chronic Illness, School, Development. O Impacto das Práticas Educativas na Experiência Escolar de Crianças e Adolescentes com Doença Crónica Resumo Progressivamente mais usual, a doença crónica tem implicações várias na experiência escolar de crianças e adolescentes. Contudo, apesar de estarem condicionados por exigências e incompatibilidades que a doença impõe face aos ritmos escolares, estes estudantes encontram, vulgarmente, estratégias para melhor lidarem com as dificuldades que quotidianamente encontram. Paralelamente, uma abordagem compreensiva e sistemática por parte dos agentes educativos (pares, professores…) tende a proporcionar-lhes oportunidades educativas genuinamente benéficas (Kyngas, 2004). Destaca-se a relevância de uma lógica colaborativa e reflexiva a estabelecer entre escola e família na promoção da adaptação destes estudantes (Thies, 1999). Este estudo foca-se na vivência de crianças e adolescentes com doença crónica na escola e pretende identificar factores inibidores e potenciadores do seu desenvolvimento, através de entrevistas com estudantes. Por outro lado, é objectivo deste estudo explorar os recursos e as práticas proporcionadas pela escola para a inclusão dos estudantes com doença crónica, baseadas em entrevistas com professores.

Pedro; Menezes, Isabel Faculdade de Psicologia e de Ciências da Educação - Universidade do Porto Abstract The emergence of a new paradigm of disability (Schalock, 2004) has inspired new biopsychosocial (Simeonsson, et al 2003) and socio-political (Hahn, 1985; Smart, & Smart, 2006) models that challenge the definition of disability beyond a functionalist perspective. The acknowledgement of a social dimension and its impact on disabled people’s lives has been leading to see special education schools as social exclusion and segregation devices.This way, it is important to question and reflect upon educative practices and associated differentiation and classification iems such as: ‘learning disabilities’. Results from a policy analysis focusing on guiding principles of empowerment and autonomy promotion of Portuguese and European documents will be presented and its relevance discussed on the basis of biopsychosocial and socio-political models. Key-words: Empowerment, Incapacity, Learning Disabilities. Orientações para Resultados e Processos de Empoderamento – Uma Análise de Políticas Resumo A emergência de um novo paradigma de incapacidade permitiu o desenvolvimento de modelos biopsicosociais (Simeonsson, et al 2003) e sociopolíticos (Hahn, 1985; Smart, & Smart, 2006) que questionam a própria definição de incapacidade para além da perspectiva funcionalista. O reconhecimento da dimensão social e do seu impacto na vida de pessoas incapacitadas tem levado a perceber as escolas de educação especial como dispositivos de segregação e de exclusão social. Assim, importa questionar e reflectir as práticas educativas, como também os dispositivos de diferenciação e de classificação associados, como, por exemplo: ‘dificuldades de aprendizagem’. Serão apresentados resultados de uma análise de políticas nacionais e europeias focando nos princípios orientadores do empoderamento e da promoção da autonomia e discutida a sua pertinência com base nos modelos biopsicosociais e sociopolíticos da incapacidade.

Promoting more inclusive practices is fundamental for the construction of educational settings that welcome difference as a valuable resource for all (César, 2003). Studying changes induced by professional education on the sentiments, attitudes and concerns of the educational agents is, therefore, relevant (Loreman, Earle, Sharma, & Forlin, 2007; Sharma, Forlin, Loreman, & Earle, 2006). This work is part of the project Educação Inclusiva e Processos de Formação, in which the main objective/ it’s main objective is of this investigation is the study of sentiments, attitudes and concerns presented by educational agents, before and after attending graduate or post graduate professional education regarding inclusive education. We assume an interpretive paradigm and a methodological approach carried out through a long panel survey. The sub-sample of this study includes teachers and other educational agents (n=81) in the Greater Lisbon area, attending higher education professional courses covering contents related to inclusive education. To collect data we used the scale SACIE – Sentiments, Attitudes & Concerns about Inclusive Education, by Loreman, Earle, Sharma, & Forlin, (2006), applied in two moments: At the beginning and at the end of the selected curriculum units. When these two moments are confronted, the results reveal a slight increase of inclusive sentiments and attitudes towards students characterized as presenting SEN. The results also reveal a high level of concern towards inclusive education. Key-words: Professional Education, Inclusive Education, Attitudes, Concerns. Inclusão: Sentimentos, Atitudes e Preocupações Resumo Em Portugal assiste-se a uma crescente diversidade de alunos que frequentam o ensino regular. A promoção de práticas mais inclusivas é fundamental para a construção de cenários educativos que acolham a diferença como uma riqueza, património de todos (César, 2003). Estudar as mudanças que a formação de agentes educativos provoca nos seus sentimentos, atitudes e preocupações é, por isso, relevante (Loreman, Earle, Sharma, & Forlin, 2007; Sharma, Forlin, Loreman, & Earle, 2006). Este trabalho faz parte do projecto Educação Inclusiva e Processos de Formação, cujo principal objectivo é estudar que Sentimentos, Atitudes e Preocupações apresentam os agentes educacionais, antes e após uma formação relacionada com a educação inclusiva. Assumimos uma abordagem interpretativa e realizámos um long panel survey. A sub-amostra deste estudo inclui professores e outros agentes educativos (n=81), em formação inicial ou pós-graduada, em instituições de ensino superior, da região da Grande Lisboa, frequentando cursos e unidades curriculares que abordam conteúdos relacionados com a educação inclusiva. Como instrumentos de recolha de dados utilizou-se a escala SACIE – Sentiments, Attitudes & Concerns about Inclusive Education, de Loreman, Earle, Sharma, & Forlin (2006), aplicada em dois momentos: no início e no final das unidades curriculares seleccionadas. Os resultados revelam um leve aumento de sentimentos e atitudes mais inclusivas face aos alunos caracterizados como apresentando necessidades educativas especiais, quando se confrontam os dois momentos da aplicação da escala. Revelam, ainda, um elevado nível de preocupações face à educação inclusiva.

They are reports of our experiences with deaf, blind and students in wheelchair. We discuss about the barriers and the possibilities with deficient college students in expectation of recognizing in the opportunities, in the limits and in the daily challenges, practice of solidarity for the social inclusion. Law of inclusion (Brazilian), in spite of its importance, it is not enough. We value the expectations attributed by the current model of Inclusive Education, going through a segregated model in special rooms for a heterogeneous model, based by the notion of inclusion in regular rooms, promoting new demands that need an effort from everyone for discovering of itself and the another one, demanding the searching for new actions. So we check and report, the limits of this inclusion, the challenges between teacher and student, the silences from the politics of inclusion that it is drawing and the "anguish" for the slowness of the process. We also point the concrete means of minimizing of these limits when the school subjects place themselves to the service of the construction of a net of bonds made and practiced by students and sensitive teachers to the inclusion. Using the participating observation methodology, in the plural school places, we note that the nets of solidarity mean one of the practical alternatives to the inclusion. It is necessary the construction of other knots, solidarity knots, to avoid that the inclusion is not only in the physical presence of the defective person. It can be revealed, much more, in condition of apprenticeship. Key-words: Inclusive Education, Special Education, Alterity. Prática Inclusiva: Tecendo Redes de Solidariedade no Ensino Superior Resumo Nosso trabalho aborda a construção de teias de solidariedade para a busca pela inclusão de pessoas com deficiência no ensino superior. São relatos de nossas experiências com discentes surdos, cadeirantes, cegos, entre outros. Discutimos sobre as barreiras e as possibilidades com alunos universitários com deficiência na expectativa de reconhecer nas ocasiões, nos limites e nos desafios diários, práticas de solidariedades para a inclusão social. A lei de inclusão (brasileira), apesar de importante, não basta. Avaliamos que as expectativas imputadas pelo atual modelo de Educação Inclusiva, passando de um modelo segregado em salas especiais para um modelo heterogêneo, alicerçado pela noção de inclusão em salas regulares, promovem novas demandas necessitando um esforço de todos para descoberta de si e do outro, exigindo a busca por outros agires. Observamos e relatamos, assim, os limites dessa inclusão, os desafios na relação professor e aluno, os silêncios que a política de inclusão vai desenhando e a “agonia” pela lentidão do processo. Apontamos, também, as concretas possibilidades de minimização desses limites quando os sujeitos escolares se colocam a serviço da construção de uma rede de vínculos posta em prática por alunos e professores sensíveis à inclusão. Usando a metodologia da observação participante, nos plurais espaços escolares, constatamos que as redes de solidariedade significam uma das alternativas práticas à inclusão. Faz-se necessária a construção de outros laços, laços de solidariedade, para evitar que a inclusão não fique só na presença física da pessoa deficiente. Revele-se, muito mais, em condição de aprendizagem. Palavras-chave: Educação Inclusiva, Educação Especial, Alteridade. 36 TEMA POSTER - Inclusão: Práticas e Professores POSTERS 1. Inclusão: Práticas e Professores / Inclusion: Pratices And Teachers Inclusive Models and Practices in Romania, Bucharest, School nr. 114, “Principesa Margareta” MINODORA GAVRILA School Nr. 114, “Principesa Margareta” BUCHAREST – ROMANIA Abstract The School Nr. 114, “Princess Margareta” is a Secondary School in Bucharest, the capital city of Romania, committed to community and eager to offer a better education for children. `Since 2002, the School is involved in the PHARE project, ”The Access to Education of Disadvantaged Groups”.

TEMA POSTER - Inclusão: Práticas e Professores The Impact of Educational Practices in the Chronic Illness Children and Adolescents School Experiences Sofia C. Pais & Isabel Menezes Faculdade de Psicologia e de Ciências da Educação - Universidade do Porto Abstract Progressively more usual, chronic illness has several implications on the scholar experience of chronic illness children and adolescents. However, in spite of being conditioned by the disease demands and incompatibilities facing the school rhythms, these students, frequently, run into strategies to better cope with their daily difficulties. In parallel, the comprehensive and systematic educational agents approach (peers, teachers…) tends to afford them educative opportunities sincerely beneficial (Kyngas, 2004). It highlights the relevance of a collaborative and reflexive logic to establish between the school and the family in order to promote these students adaptation (Thies, 1999). This study focuses on the chronic illness children and adolescents experience in the school setting and it intends to identify the inhibitors and encouraging factors of this development, using interviews with students. On the other side, it is our aim exploring resources and practices which are provide by school for the chronic illness students inclusion, based on interviews with teachers.

TEMA POSTER - Inclusão: Práticas e Professores Innovation and Inclusion Education: Case Study of Reference João Silva, Nicole Rebelo, Patrícia Mendes, Patrícia Pinto, A. Candeias Universidade de Évora Abstract We assumed in this work that the educational innovation relates to the pedagogical renewal, with processes of change and improvement in the school system to promote inclusion of pupils with SEN. In this study, we propose the characterization of the Educational Process of Inclusion, based in a case study of a school considered a good example of inclusive practice and educational innovation. Used for this analysis is the methodology of case study, with observations in context, document analysis and a semistructured interview with a teacher of the School who work every day and practicing inclusion. Analysis of the interviews highlighted four dimensions: Inclusive Education and School, School Inclusion/Social Inclusion Management School, Barriers and Challenges of Inclusion. The results show the ideal and the management of inclusion in school and in society as well as highlight the main obstacles and challenges that arise in this context. Is not possible to extrapolate the results obtained, it is suggested the development of new studies that show new track and advantages of inclusive education practices for the development of all children. Key-words: Inclusion, Innovation, SEN, Academic Results, Educational Skills. Inovação e Inclusão Educativa: Estudo de um caso de referência Resumo Assumimos como pressuposto, neste trabalho que a inovação educativa relaciona-se com a renovação pedagógica, com processos de mudança e a melhoria no sistema escolar que promovam a inclusão de alunos com NEE. Neste estudo propomos a caracterização do Processo de Inclusão Educativa, baseados num estudo de caso de uma Escola considerada um exemplo de boas práticas inclusivas e de inovação educativa. Para esta análise recorreu-se à metodologia de estudo de caso, com observações em contexto, análise documental e uma entrevista semi-estruturada a uma professora da Escola que trabalha e pratica diariamente a inclusão. Da análise da entrevista ressaltaram quatro dimensões: Educação e Escola Inclusiva, Inclusão Escolar / Inclusão Social, Gestão Escolar, Barreiras e Desafios de Inclusão. Os resultados evidenciam o ideal e a gestão da inclusão na Escola e na sociedade, bem como realçam os principais obstáculos e desafios que se colocam neste contexto. Não sendo possível extrapolar os resultados conseguidos, sugere-se o desenvolvimento de novos estudos que evidenciam novas pistas e vantagens das práticas educativas inclusivas para o desenvolvimento de todas as crianças.

TEMA POSTER - Inclusão: Práticas e Professores The Educative Answer for Pupils with Multideficiency, Congenital Blindness and for Pupils with Perturbations of the Autistic Spectrum Domingues, Eduardo1; Ferreira, Paula2 U.L.P. e Escola E.B. 2,3 de Sever do Vouga1; U.L.P. e Escola E.B. 2,3 de Sever do Vouga2 Abstract By bringing into force the Decreto-Lei n.º 3/2008, of January 7th, new educational answers were made available to pupils with long term special needs. Among the provisions of this new law stands out the specific service to children with congenital multi-deficiency and deaf blind and to autism deficiencies. The special needs presented by these pupils required which, due to its particulars, forced schools to call on the local community and requesting it to take part in the educational process as a way to look for adequate answers and partnerships. In this scenario, it is important to find out in which extent the global society in this new century and specifically the teaching community provides the right answers to the inclusion – both educational and social – in a committed and sensed way and not as a legal obligation. In this context, partnerships turns out to be a plus, not only by granting children with special needs live functional experiences but also because all the experiences will be useful when they leave school. The schools in general and the teachers in particular must be able to provide adequated answers in order to satisfy the diversity of needs, by promoting and developing educational answers and overcoming, day by day, the several inclusion barriers – educational, personal or social – that range from difficulties arising from the pupil’s own situation to the lack of real and effective public policies. Key-words: Service, School, NEE, PEA, Multideficiency. A Resposta Educativa para Alunos com Multideficiência/Surdo-Cegueira Congénita e para Alunos com Perturbações do Espectro do Autismo Resumo A publicação do Decreto-Lei n.º 3/2008, de 7 de Janeiro permitiu novas respostas educativas a alunos com necessidades educativas especiais de carácter prolongado, e dentro do articulado, sobressai o atendimento específico à multideficiência e surdo-cegueira congénita, e às perturbações do espectro do autismo que, pelas suas características particulares, obrigaram à abertura da escola à comunidade envolvente, a qual, tradicionalmente, não intervinha no processo educativo, procurando assim respostas adequadas e parcerias ajustadas. Deste modo urge saber até que ponto a sociedade globalizada, deste início de século, e os docentes, em particular, respondem ao chamado da inclusão (seja educativa ou social) e respondem de forma sentida e vivida e não como simples cumprimento burocrático de normativos legais. Neste contexto, a articulação de trabalho torna-se uma mais-valia, não só por garantirem experiências funcionais em contexto real mas também porque, terminado o percurso escolar, é fora da escola que o aluno será colocado enquanto cidadão de pleno direito. A escola, e os docentes em particular, têm, pois, de serem capazes de responder adequadamente à pluralidade das necessidades, promovendo e desenvolvendo respostas educativas, ao mesmo tempo que transpõe, a cada dia que passa, as barreiras à inclusão (sejam educacionais, pessoais ou sociais), desde as dificuldades próprias da condição particular do aluno até à carência de políticas públicas concretas e capazes.

TEMA POSTER - Inclusão: Práticas e Professores Exploratory Study of Physical Educators’ Attitudes Towards Inclusion of Students with Physical Disability Campos, Maria João; Silva, Sara; Ferreira, José Pedro Faculdade de Ciências do Desporto e Educação Física da Universidade de Coimbra Abstract Teacher’s attitudes toward teaching students with disabilities key factor in the improvement of disability students’ inclusion on the regular classes. The purpose of this research is to explore Physical Educators’ attitudes toward teaching students with physical disabilities. The sample was constituted by 254 Physical Educators, N= 164 male and N=90, age between 21 and 58 years old (M=36,64; SD=8,943). We used the PEATID III – Physical Educators’ Attitude Toward Teaching Individuals With Disabilities III (Rizzo, 1993), which had never been administrated in this population. The results suggest that teacher’s who have coursework in special education have more positive attitudes than those without academic preparation as well as a better quality of experience and perceived competence. The greater the quality of experience, the better are the attitudes and perceived competence. It is necessary to implement strategies, in particular at specific training level in inclusive education, so that teachers have higher quality of teaching experience and consequently better perceived competence and attitudes in teaching students with disabilities. Key-words: Attitudes, Physical Disability, Inclusion, Physical Educators. Estudo Exploratório das Atitudes dos Professores de Educação Física Face a Inclusão dos Alunos com Deficiência Motora Resumo As atitudes dos professores são um factor chave na inclusão de alunos com deficiência nas classes regulares. O objectivo deste trabalho é averiguar as atitudes dos professores de Educação Física (EF) face ao ensino de alunos com deficiência motora. A amostra foi constituída por 254 professores de EF, (N=164 do género masculino e N=90 do género feminino), com idades entre os 21 e os 58 anos (M=36,64; DP=8,94). O instrumento de avaliação utilizado foi o PEATID III – Physical Educators’ Attitude Toward Teaching Individuals With Disabilities III (Rizzo, 1993), o qual nunca foi utilizado para a população portuguesa. Podemos concluir que os docentes com formação em ensino especial apresentam atitudes mais favoráveis, bem como uma melhor qualidade da experiência e uma maior percepção de competência. Quanto maior a qualidade da experiência, mais favoráveis as atitudes e a percepção de competência. Torna-se necessária a implementação de estratégias, nomeadamente a nível da formação em ensino inclusivo, para uma melhor qualidade da experiência de ensino e consequente melhorias da aptidão pedagógica e das atitudes face ao ensino de alunos com deficiência.

TEMA POSTER - Inclusão: Práticas e Professores Transition to Active Life of Students with Special Needs Education: Reflections from the School Gabriela Canastra Universidade Lusófona de Lisboa Abstract This paper intends to make a reflection about some educational implications associated to the transition process towards adult life of disabled and handicapped students. According to the Portuguese Law (3/2008 of 7th January), we explain some controversial aspects, which emerge from the analysis of its contents, according to the theoretical – conceptual context of the social construction of the disability. The multiplicity of meanings, which is applied to the transition concept (transition to adult life, postschooling transition, social- labour transition), is emphasized in this context. Secondly, a reflection about this subject is mentioned, showing some contributions produced in an ecological perspective. Therefore, it is important to reveal the meaning of transition to an adult life concept, pointing a transition methodology that can articulate differently but in a convergent way, some elements such as: (a) The centricity of each one’s singular experience; (b) The mobilization of supports and local quality services adapted to each person; (c) The implementation of transition issues, organized and managed around the meanings related to a life quality concept, which is focused, among other dimensions, on the articulation between the feeling of self-determination of the person and the role of the quality of services and supports. Key-words: The Social Construction of Disability,The Transition to Adult Life, An Ecologic Perspective, Self- Determination, Quality of Life. Transição para a Vida Activa de Alunos com Necessidades Educativas Especiais: Reflexões a partir da Escola Resumo O presente artigo visa apresentar o resultado de algumas reflexões sobre determinadas implicações educativas associadas ao processo de transição para a vida adulta de alunos com NEE, a partir do novo enquadramento operativo do processo em causa, implementado pelo Decreto-Lei 3/2008, de 7 de Janeiro. É neste contexto que é realçada a complexidade inerente ao uso que se tem vindo a fazer do conceito de transição (transição para a vida adulta, transição pós-escolar ou transição sócio-laboral). Neste sentido, importa relevar o significado do conceito de transição para a vida adulta, privilegiando-se uma metodologia de transição que articule, de forma diferenciada mas convergente, vários factores contextuais: (a) centralidade da experiência singular de cada sujeito, (b) mobilização de apoios e serviços locais de qualidade à medida de cada sujeito (c) implementação de dispositivos de transição organizados e geridos em torno do sentimento de autodeterminação e de qualidade de vida de cada sujeito.

TEMA POSTER - Inclusão: Práticas e Professores Life Satisfaction, Scholarity and Professional Status of Youth with Cerebral Palsy: Comparative Study 1,2 1 Diana A. Brandão ; José L. Pais Ribeiro Faculdade de Psicologia e Ciências da Educação da Universidade do Porto 2 Apoiada pela Fundação para a Ciência e Tecnologia (SFRH/BD/37474/2007) Abstract This study presents an exploratory and comparative analysis of the academic and professional pathways, of youth with and without Cerebral Palsy (CP), and, therefore, to understand the influence of these pathways in general life satisfaction. The sample consisted of 122 subjects, 72 subjects with CP and 50 without CP; 41,8% male and 58,2% female; aged between 16 and 36 years; all single. Self-response, anonymous questionnaires were use: a socio-demographic questionnaire and the General Life Satisfaction Scale (Andrews & Withey, 1976). An average value of 6,94 was found for General Life Satisfaction for the total sample; 6,82 for individuals with CP; and 7,12 for individuals without CP; suggesting that these youth are relatively satisfied with their lives. Students have higher life satisfaction than young people Employed, Unemployed and Volunteers; and Volunteers have lower life satisfaction than young people Employed and Unemployed. The results suggest that youth without CP have higher education than youth with CP; and that female individuals have higher education than male individuals. For the Professional Status, the results indicate that there are more youth with CP who are unemployed and/or at home, without occupation, than youth without a CP. Key-Words: Cerebral Palsy, Education, Professional Status and General Life Satisfaction.

The quantity and quality of participation are most likely influenced by the characteristics of children (including age, the profile of disability and their social skills), the characteristics of contexts that attending pre-school (especially ,regarding the materials available, the adult-child interactions and the degree of individualization of activities) and the characteristics of the special education program implemented to meet the specific needs of these children (particularly regarding the degree of implementation of practices and focused on trans-family) . This study aims to test this hypothesis by examining the associations between specific indicators of social participation (i.e. social acceptance, number of friends and participation in the activities of the room) and the variables above mentioned. Key-words: Social Participation, Disability, Inclusion, Quality, Pre-school. Múltiplas Influências sobre Indicadores de Participação Social Resumo A participação de crianças com incapacidades em interacções, relações e actividades características dos contextos pré-escolares constitui-se como um objectivo primordial do processo de inclusão. A quantidade e qualidade dessa participação são, muito provavelmente, influenciadas pelas características das crianças (nomeadamente a sua idade, o seu perfil de incapacidades e as suas competências sociais), pelas características dos contextos pré-escolares que frequentam (nomeadamente no que diz respeito aos materiais disponíveis, às interacções adulto-criança e ao grau de individualização das actividades) e pelas características do programa de educação especial implementado para responder às necessidades específicas dessas crianças (nomeadamente no que se refere ao grau de implementação de práticas transdisciplinares e centradas na família). Este estudo tem como objectivo testar esta hipótese, analisando as associações entre indicadores específicos de participação social (i.e., aceitação social, número de amigos e participação nas actividades da sala) e as variáveis anteriormente referidas.

Social Representations of Non-Native Students in Portuguese Territory: Predictors of Motivation and Attitudes on Learning Situation Sandra Figueiredo; Carlos Fernandes da Silva Universidade de Aveiro, Portugal Abstract The migratory experience of children and adolescents can configure and change their attitudes and behaviours resulting from the mismatch of learning situations. The academic success and psychosocial development of individuals inherited and caused by family and community, may be affected by a noticeable awareness of environmental stimuli and various psychological reactions resulting there from. There will be a brief discussion on free narratives developed by students of Portuguese Second Language regarding experiences in the Portuguese context (school, family and community). The categorization reflected in the texts written by immigrant pupils is an indicative of exclusion behaviour generated by external agents and should be diagnosed in order to orient programs. Key-words: Educative Intervention, Social Representations, Second Language, Inclusion. Representações sociais de alunos não nativos em território Português: Preditores de motivação e atitudes na aprendizagem Resumo A experiência migratória da criança e do adolescente pode alterar e configurar as suas atitudes e determinar comportamentos resultantes de desadequação às situações de aprendizagem e à Escola/Professor. O sucesso académico e o desenvolvimento psicossocial dos indivíduos, herdado e provocado por família e comunidade, podem ser afectados por uma consciência notada de estímulos do ambiente e várias reacções psicológicas daí resultantes. Será desenvolvida uma breve reflexão sobre narrativas livres desenvolvidas por alunos aprendentes de Português Língua Segunda e Língua Estrangeira em relação às experiências em contexto português (escola, família e comunidade). A categorização reflectida nos textos elaborados pelos alunos imigrantes é indiciadora de comportamentos de exclusão que os agentes externos geram e que devem ser diagnosticados para se orientarem programas de reinserção.

Socio-cognitive models of social inclusion: Preventing early inter-ethnic discrimination Maria Benedicta Monteiro; Francisco Gomes Esteves; Maria Manuela Calheiros; Allard Rienk Feddes; Rita Susana Correia; Maria Rita Morais; Ricardo Filipe Rodrigues; Mariline Justo Lisbon University Institute (ISCTE) - Centre for Social Research and Intervention (CIS) Abstract Prejudice is defined as a negative evaluation of a social group or of an individual on the basis of group membership (Allport, 1954; Crandall & Eshleman, 2002). Much controversy surrounds the issue of prejudice in Western European societies. However, little attention has been given by social agents, educators, and media to prejudice in childhood. The prevailing common-sense beliefs regarding this issue are that prejudice does not exist in young children. Phenomena like social exclusion are often explained as the result of similarity or familiarity. However, a growing body of research provides evidence that children as young as five years old express prejudice against ethnic minorities (Katz, 1976; Aboud, 1988). Early research has already shown the possible threats to minority children’s well-being and academic performance as a result of prejudice (Clark & Clark, 1947). The present research project focuses on two main issues that are theoretically and socially paramount in current Developmental Social Psychology: The developmental course of prejudiced attitudes and behaviours in dominant groups against minority stigmatised groups; and the issue of reducing prejudice in children. More specifically, we examine the underlying psychological processes associated with prejudice development following socio-normative theory (Monteiro, França, & Rodrigues, 2009). For this purpose, new methodologies are being developed to examine both explicit and implicit forms of prejudice. The ultimate goal is to contribute to the development of intervention programmes which aim to promote more equal intergroup relations between social groups. This paper presents four studies with an overview of our research. Key-words: Ethnic Prejudice, Development, Reduction, Social Norms, Parents.

Avaliação das Instituições, de Professores e de Alunos Inclusive Education in Azores- Portugal Thomas Hofsäss1; Letícia Leitão2; Conceição Medeiros2; Universidade de Leipzig (Alemanha)1; Universidade dos Açores2 Abstract This paper focuses on the divulgation of the results of the first part of the Azorean Inclusive Evaluation Project (AEIA). These results are related to some actions developed during the school hear of 2006/2007. The results are related to the elementary and middle schools teachers’ perceptions about Inclusive Education in Azores, which exists since 1997, when all the Special Schools were extinguished. The data were collected through an inquiry to 2031 teachers (90% of all azorean teachers), and were analyzed by way of a quantitative method. The results showed that Azorean teachers’ attitudes are positive about Inclusive Education, although they showed some worries about its implementation in daily school reality. Key-words: Inclusive Education, Attitudes, School. A Educação Inclusiva nos Açores Resumo Esta comunicação visa essencialmente divulgar os resultados da 1º fase do Projecto da Avaliação da Educação inclusiva nos Açores (AEIA), cujas acções foram desenvolvidas durante o ano lectivo de 2006/2007. Estes resultados são relativos à análise das percepções dos professores do 1º, 2º e 3º ciclos do Ensino Básico da Região Autónoma dos Açores, sobre o modelo de Educação Inclusiva que se iniciou nesta Região em 1997, com a extinção de todas as Escolas de Educação Especial existentes. Os dados recolhidos através de um questionário passado a 2031 professores dos 1º, 2º e 3º Ciclos do Ensino Básico (90% da totalidade dos docentes) indicam que o corpo docente do Ensino Básico açoriano apresenta uma atitude de abertura perante a Escola Inclusiva, embora com muitas reservas quanto à sua operacionalização na prática.

Avaliação das Instituições, de Professores e de Alunos Rankings and Schools’ Quality José Manuel Brito Pires Bica & Fernando Cardoso de Sousa Instituto Superior Afonso III (INUAF), Loulé Abstract This article aims at demonstrating that the rankings of the secondary schools of the Algarve are not confirmed by the perception of quality of their teachers and students. After selecting the three better positioned and the three in the last positions, we used Kelly’s grids to build a two-factor questionnaire – integration and management, which was administered to a sample of 497 students and 174 teachers of the six selected schools. Results indicated that the rankings were not confirmed by the perception of quality by the teachers and students. It was also possible to draw a profile of a school with quality and of a school with poor quality, based on the correspondence factor analysis made to the interviews of teachers and students. These results, although needing a more inclusive investigation, called the attention to the unjust situations the rankings might create when used as a sole indicator to evaluate the quality of schools. Key-words: Rankings, School quality, Kelly`s Grids, School Management. Rankings e Qualidade das Escolas Resumo Neste artigo procura-se provar que os rankings oficiais das escolas secundárias do Algarve não são confirmados pela qualidade percebida pelos professores e alunos, tendo sido comparadas as três escolas secundárias do Algarve melhor classificadas com as três pior classificadas. O método das grades de Kelly permitiu elaborar um questionário organizado em dois factores de qualidade - gestão e integração -, que foi aplicado a uma amostra de 497 alunos e 174 professores, concluindo-se que os rankings não eram confirmados pela percepção de qualidade que os alunos e os professores tinham delas. Foi também possível, a partir da análise factorial de correspondências das entrevistas realizadas, conceber um perfil da escola com qualidade e de uma sem ou com pouca qualidade. Estes resultados, se bem que careçam de maior generalização, vêm comprovar a situação de injustiça na utilização dos rankings como indicadores de qualidade das escolas.

Avaliação das Instituições, de Professores e de Alunos Measures of Educational Guidance: The Assessment of Sensory Preferences for learners of Portuguese as Second Language Sandra Figueiredo; Carlos Fernandes da Silva Universidade de Aveiro, Portugal Abstract The learning styles develop and transfer between them, constituting themselves as well as processes once they are subject to the development phases, caused mainly by the age advance. Sociological, motivational elements, sense of responsibility and other matters of internal and external nature are in the sphere of the learning style development. After a brief theoretical review, with the aim to address conceptually the styles of learning, will be presented some results, arising from the implementation of a questionnaire prepared for this purpose, which show the differences in preferences revealed by native and immigrant students. Will be discussed the evolution of sensory preferences in the context of Second Language learning, suggesting the hypothesis of a critical period for the type of sensory preference in the language learning. In other hand, will be also discussed the relation of the learning style with the academic success of students, and the consequence of that relationship as basic knowledge for an educative intervention that should guide and support measures for inclusion in a school that is increasingly a global institution concerning the type of students who hosts. Key-words: Educative Intervention, Learning Styles, Second Language, Inclusion, Assessment. Medidas de Orientação Educativa: A Avaliação das Preferências Sensoriais de Aprendentes de Português Língua Segunda Resumo Os estilos de aprendizagem evoluem e transferem-se entre eles, constituindo-se como processos pois também são sujeitos a fases de desenvolvimento, provocados sobretudo pelo avanço da idade. Elementos sociológicos, motivacionais, sentido de responsabilidade e outros elementos de natureza interna e externa encontram-se na esfera de evolução do estilo de aprendizagem. Após uma breve revisão teórica, com o objectivo de abordar conceptualmente os estilos de aprendizagem, serão apresentados alguns resultados, decorrentes da aplicação de um questionário preparado para o efeito, que evidenciam as diferenças nas preferências reveladas por aprendentes portugueses nativos e por alunos imigrantes. Será discutida a evolução das preferências sensoriais no contexto de aprendizagem de Língua Segunda, sugerindo a hipótese de um período crítico para o tipo de preferência sensorial na aprendizagem de Língua. Por outro lado, será discutida a relação do estilo de aprendizagem com o sucesso académico dos aprendentes, e a consequência dessa relação enquanto conhecimento fundamental para a intervenção educativa que deve orientar medidas de apoio e de inclusão numa escola que cada vez mais se revela global pelo tipo de alunos que acolhe.

Avaliação das Instituições, de Professores e de Alunos Evaluation of an Early Intervention Program: Contributes to the Promotion of Inclusive Practices Júlia Serpa Pimentel1, Joaquim Gronita2, Ana Cristina Bernardo3, Cátia Matos3 & Joana Marques3 Instituto Superior de psicologia Aplicada - Unidade de Investigação em Psicologia Cognitiva do 1 Desenvolvimento e Educação ; Universidade Aberta; Serviço Técnico de Intervenção Precoce da 2 3 Cercizimbra ; Cooperativa Torreguia Abstract The evaluation study on the research/action project “Early Intervention: the process of building and implementing good practices”, the research team aimed at gathering and analyzing data concerning the implemented practices of an Early Intervention (EI) team within Community, family, child, service and program and to compare them to international recommended practices. Sharing the evaluation plan and first results with the EI team under evaluation seems to have contributed to a better organization of the EI program, namely assessment and intervention process and instruments and the amount and quality of information shared with families and was, in itself a contribution to the change and improvement of EI team, and redefinition of goals and priorities of the program under evaluation. The results of the project and of the evaluation study enabled the team to identify models and procedures that will improve full inclusion for pre-school with special educational needs and their families. Key-words: Early Intervention, Program Evaluation, Inclusion, Family-centred Parctices. A Avaliação de um Programa de Intervenção Precoce: Contributo para a Melhoria das Práticas Inclusivas Resumo Com o estudo avaliativo do Projecto de investigação/acção “O processo de construção de boas práticas”, delineado em simultâneo com o próprio projecto, pretendia-se recolher e analisar dados relativos às práticas implementadas por uma equipa de Intervenção Precoce (IP) a nível da comunidade, família, criança, serviço e programa, ao longo de três anos, comparando-as com as que são internacionalmente recomendadas. A partilha inicial dos objectivos do estudo com a equipa avaliada e a devolução de alguns resultados parcelares poderão ter contribuído para uma melhor organização do programa de IP, dos procedimentos de avaliação/intervenção, dos instrumentos utilizados e da informação prestada às famílias, constituindose como factor de mudança e promoção da qualidade, originando redefinição de objectivos e prioridades para o planeamento de actividades da equipa/programa avaliado. Os resultados obtidos permitem identificar modelos, procedimentos e respostas que assegurem a plena inclusão das crianças em idade pré-escolar e suas famílias na vida da comunidade.

Avaliação das Instituições, de Professores e de Alunos The Inclusion of Students with migratory experience: Need for Tools for Educational Assessment and Intervention Sandra Figueiredo; Carlos Fernandes da Silva Universidade de Aveiro, Portugal Abstract It is important scientific and, above all, on a social perspective and to produce knowledge and suggest solutions enabling respond to the main problem of this research: "How to identify and thereby develop prevention methods regarding to overcome learning disabilities of second language (L2) learners, in school context, taking into account the premise of different cognitive performances (the highest level of "competence") and different psychosocial predispositions and thus, several verbal behaviours due to psychological, cognitive and linguistic factors?” Method: 61 participants second language learners (Experimental Group) and 82 native and monolingual individuals (Control Group), aged between 7 and 30 years. It was developed a battery of 12 tests to observe, at different degrees of language development, the phonological awareness of the participants, according to the factors age, gender, nationality and native language spoken by individuals. The test appears to be programmed in an electronic format to determine the profile accuracy of sounds, control of recording the answers and report the time spent for each test. From the application of the tests battery, we found that the sample with migratory experience presents lower performance (with a lower degree of acceptability) toward the sample of native and monolingual (Portuguese) which suggests clear indication that L2 learners have the conditions that require school support especially given the differences in competence and performance among the age brackets. Naturally the L2 learners are students at risk regarding the literacy skills development, determining the academic performance and their inclusion. Key-words: Educative Intervention, Tests Battery, Second Language, Inclusion. A Inclusão de Alunos com Experiência Migratória: Necessidade de Instrumentos de Avaliação e de Intervenção Educativa Resumo É importante cientificamente e, sobretudo, do ponto de vista social produzir conhecimento e sugerir soluções que possibilitem responder ao principal problema desta investigação: “Como identificar e, assim, desenvolver métodos de prevenção dirigidos à superação de dificuldades de aprendizagem de aprendentes de L2, em contexto escolar, tendo em conta a premissa dos diferentes desempenhos (a nível mais elevado de “competência”) cognitivos e das diferentes predisposições psicossociais e, assim, do distinto comportamento verbal que evidenciam, devido a factores de ordem psicológica, cognitiva e linguística?” Método: 61 participantes aprendentes da segunda língua (Grupo Experimental) e 82 sujeitos monolingues e nativos (Grupo Controlo), com idades compreendidas entre 7 e 30 anos. Foi desenvolvida uma bateria de 12 testes para observar, em diferentes graus de desenvolvimento da Língua, a consciência fonológica dos participantes, de acordo com os factores idade, género, nacionalidade e línguas maternas faladas pelos indivíduos. O teste apresenta-se programado num formato electrónico determinando o perfil a acuidade dos sons, controlo do registo das respostas e registo do tempo despendido para cada teste. A partir da aplicação da bateria de testes constatamos que a amostra com experiência migratória se apresenta com desempenho inferior (com menor grau de aceitabilidade) face à amostra de sujeitos nativos e monolingues (Português) o que sugere claro indício de que os aprendentes de L2 reúnem condições que exigem apoio escolar sobretudo atendendo as diferenças de competência e performance entre as classes etárias. Naturalmente surgem como alunos de risco no que respeita a desenvolvimento das competências literácitas, determinando o desempenho académico e a sua inclusão.

Avaliação das Instituições, de Professores e de Alunos Assessment of Practices in Early Intervention Elisabete Mendes Escola Superior de Educação de Portalegre Abstract The assessments in the context of early intervention have been very scarce in our country, and have focussed primarily on perceptions of professional and degree of satisfaction of parents and not on what actually happens during the program of intervention. This research project, aims to make quality assessment in early intervention, comparing the practices implemented with the internationally recommended practice and national guidelines in place. Thus, starting a process of self practice by teams of professionals involved in direct intervention, the document analysis was made of the procedures and actions as well as participatory observation of the practices actually implemented within the framework of different programs of early intervention. We expect with the quality indicators, may help to improve services and the training of professionals, as well as look for a more adapted model of Early Intervention to Portuguese reality. Key-words: Early Intervention, Evaluation Program, Quality of Practice. Avaliação das Práticas em Intervenção Precoce Resumo Os estudos de avaliação no âmbito da intervenção precoce têm sido bastante escassos, no nosso país, e têm-se focado fundamentalmente nas percepções de profissionais e grau de satisfação dos pais e não no que se passa efectivamente no decorrer do programa de intervenção. O presente projecto de investigação, pretende efectuar a avaliação da qualidade em intervenção precoce, comparando as práticas implementadas com as práticas internacionalmente recomendadas e orientações nacionais em vigor. Assim, partindo de processo de autoavaliação das práticas por parte dos profissionais envolvidos nas equipas de intervenção directa, foi efectuada a análise documental dos procedimentos e acções realizadas, bem como a observação participada das práticas efectivamente implementadas, no âmbito de diferentes programas de intervenção precoce. Esperamos com os indicadores de qualidade sinalizados, poder contribuir para a melhoria dos serviços e para a formação dos profissionais, assim como para perspectivar um modelo de Intervenção Precoce mais adaptado à realidade Portuguesa.

Avaliação das Instituições, de Professores e de Alunos Influence of Variables in the Institutional Responsiveness: The collaboration between teachers José Castro Silva & José Morgado Instituto Superior de Psicologia Aplicada, Lisboa, Portugal. Membros do Unidade de Investigação em Psicologia Cognitiva, do Desenvolvimento e da Educação, do Instituto Superior de Psicologia Aplicada, Lisboa, Portugal Abstract This research aimed to study the relations existing between the perception of organizational climate school and the frequency on which teachers are involved in collaboration practices in their schools. 117 teachers from 7 different schools were interviewed, aged between 22 and 63 years and teaching various disciplines. Data was collected using a questionnaire which included a scale of 5 Likert type points, presenting a total of 83 items. The questionnaire has been divided into 4 scales: interest in collaboration, concerns about collaboration, collaboration practices in which the teachers are currently involved and organizational climate perceived in their school. The main results allow us to conclude that, in general, the perception of a more positive organizational school climate results in the increasing of collaboration practices. More specifically, teachers who feel more supported by the Head of School, those who have more resources (e.g. monetary, physical), as well as the teachers who perceive working relations more satisfactory are more frequently involved in collaboration experiences. Key-Words: School Organizational Climate, Collaboration between Teachers, Implications of School Organizational Climate in Teacher’s Collaboration Practices. Influência de Variáveis Institucionais na Receptividade: A Colaboração entre Professores Resumo O presente estudo visa perceber as relações existentes entre a percepção do clima organizacional escolar e a frequência com que os professores se envolvem em práticas de colaboração nas suas escolas. Foi constituída uma amostra composta por 117 professores de 7 escolas diferentes, todas dos 2º e 3º ciclos do ensino básico, com idades compreendidas entre os 22 e os 63 anos e de diversas áreas disciplinares. O instrumento utilizado foi o inquérito por questionário, numa escala do tipo Likert de 5 pontos, apresentando um total de 83 itens, tendo sido dividido em 4 escalas: Interesse em cooperar, Preocupações face à temática colaboração, Práticas de colaboração em que os professores se encontram actualmente envolvidos e Clima organizacional vivido na sua escola. Os principais resultados permitem-nos concluir que, de um modo geral, a percepção de um clima organizacional escolar positivo traduz-se na adopção mais frequente de práticas de colaboração. Mais especificamente, os professores que se sentem mais apoiados pela sua direcção escolar, aqueles que dispõem de mais recursos (monetários, físicos, entre outros), os docentes que vivem relações de trabalho mais satisfatórios, são os mesmos que se envolvem mais frequentemente em experiências de colaboração.

TEMA POSTER - As Tecnologias na formação de Professores POSTERS 4. As Tecnologias na formação de Professores/ The Technologies in Teachers Education. Teacher Training and New Technologies Felipa Lopes dos Reis & António Eduardo Martins Open University, Portugal Abstract The education of teachers in new technologies allows each teacher to understand, through his own reality, interests and expectations, how technologies can be useful, the effective use of technology by the student first undergoing assimilation by the teachers. After all, if someone introduces computers to universities without proper attention paid to teachers, the benefit that students are going to ultimately derive from it is of low quality and usefulness. To reach positive effects it’s fundamental to consider an intensive initial enabling of capacity, starting with the teachers that may incentivise their students.
