Mathematics teaching for deaf: mapping research on problem solving

Abstract

This paper aims to analyze academic research that addresses the inclusion of deaf students and focuses on problem solving. For this, mapping in educational research was used as a methodological procedure. Searches were conducted in Qualis A1 to B2 journals, CAPES thesis and dissertations portal, Academic Google and Scielo, using the keywords 'inclusion of deaf people', inclusion and problem solving. 'and' problem situations'. After filtering the results were found six articles that were part of the corpus of analysis. The results showed that inclusion is not occurring effectively, because the teacher is not yet prepared to attend deaf students and, consequently, teaching Mathematics for these students. It is also worth noting the limited number of researches that deal with the inclusion of deaf people, focusing on problem solving.
