Acessibilidade para alunos com deficiência física: mapeamento da estrutura física das escolas públicas estaduais da zona urbana do município de Itacoatiara- AM

Abstract

This research project presents a mapping of the structure of state schools in the urban area of Itacoatiara, as a way to evaluate the adequacy of the physical space for accessibility and mobility, for the care of people with physical disabilities. Many schools, although considered fit, do not meet the legal requirements for reducing architectural barriers that make life difficult for students with special needs in schools and often even restrict them from developing a certain activity. The objective of the research is to map the state schools of Itacoatiara with the aid of the Visual Class Net Server tool which allows to generate reports and graphs of the electronic questionnaires developed through it. In addition to the tool and its resources, other methods for carrying out the work were also adopted, such as: Bibliographic survey, On-site visit and Analysis and discussion of data. From the analysis of data collected through electronic questionnaires, it was found that, of the 14 schools that were analyzed in this research, only 2 meet the accessibility requirements proposed by NBR 9050, 1 does not meet any of the requirements and the rest has 1 or more items adapted to your space. Thus, it is concluded that there is still a great shortage of equipment adapted for the disabled, and an environment where they can really feel good. For this reason the demand of these students in school is still low, since there are not many students enrolled in state schools in Itacoatiara, and often this situation occurs precisely because schools do not have adequate structures to serve this public.
