RESUMO:

 

 

This study seeks to reflect on the use of technology in learning and on the development of children who are the intended students of Special Education, namely: children with intellectual disabilities, autismo, and high abilities/ giftedness. Given these themes, we defend the following thesis throughout: Subjects’ interaction with programming language and between themsevles significantly affects their learning and the develpment of higher psychological processes. In this sense, the general objective of this study is to analyze the processes of collaboration/interaction mediated by programming language in the learning and development of higher psychological processes in Special Education students and, at the same time, analyze the relationship between imagination and creation in the collaborative dvelopment of a digital game. To acheive this research goal, this qualitative study adopts a cultural-historical approach grounded in the work of Vygostky as a theoretical and methodological base. The cultural-historical focus orients the observation and analysis of the study’s context as a process in continual moviment.  Employing an inclusive approach grounded in the principles of applied universal design for learning (UDL), this investigation was linked to the Computação para Todos (Programming for Everyone) research project. This interdiscipinary project combined unplugged programming courses (without the use of computers) with the teaching of Visual Programming, the use of the programming language Scratch, and the development of game using the programming language Python. The course took place at the Multidisciplinary Institute (MI) of the Federal Rural University of Rio de Janeiro—Nova Iguaçu Campus. This study collected and analyzed the data of three (3) Special Education students (project participants) in relation to their interaction/collaborative with other children in the class. The field research employed the following data collection process: participant observation with daily fieldnotes and the use of a systematized observation script to accompany activities, and videorecording. We used a microgenetic approach for data analysis in accordance with the research method proposed by Vygostsky. We highlight the following observed results: a) the creative character of language in the production of knowledge significantly affected learning by way of imagination; b) the importance of inter-peer interaction with the programming language for learning and human develoment; c) the interdisciplinary development of the creative activity involving children with different developmental  specificities; and d) the dialogic cooperations between children affected the development of their being. Finally, in the concluding considerations, we present reflections on inclusion in a vision of education developed with/in human and social diversity and on the fruitful interaction between affect, signification, learning markers and indicators of development.
