DIVERSITY IN UNIVERSITY TEACHING. A CHALLENGE FOR THE VISUAL CREATION FROM INVIDENCE

Abstract

Now more than ever we are finding in our university classrooms, students with disabilities. There are situations in which teachers must assume the challenge of planning and designing strategies to give some answers on what and how to teach in an accessible way to all students. In this article, we describe an experience of a blind student at the classroom of Art Education. Pictures are our language and we need to forget such an apparent contradiction between pictures and blindness in order to understand that the relationship between art creation and blind people is certainly possible. Just this is shown in the experience we describe, in which we see how blind people get access to the world of mental representations and they are able to create new images. Pictures become a bridge of communication between those who can and others who cannot see.
