O presente estudo, intitulado de “A voz das crianças: conceções, atitudes e sentimentos face à diversidade” tem como principal objetivo contribuir para clarificar e enriquecer o conhecimento das perceções e atitudes das crianças face à educação inclusiva. Para satisfazer este objetivo, este trabalho de investigação baseou-se numa abordagem qualitativa, onde as vozes das crianças foram ouvidas de forma a serem consideradas as suas opiniões, sentimentos e perceções, no sentido de caminhar em direção à inclusão. Assim, a metodologia adotada foi a entrevista semi-estruturada, também testes sociométricos para analisar as preferências e rejeições dos alunos nas turmas e ainda observações em sala-de-aula de forma a complementar a informação recolhida nos restantes instrumentos. Neste estudo participaram quatro turmas com diferentes idades, de um Agrupamento de Escolas no Norte do País, contraindo uma amostra de 63 participantes (n=63). Após a análise e interpretação dos resultados, concluímos que as crianças percecionam a diversidade como dificuldades associadas à aprendizagem e/ou comportamento, sendo que de um modo geral essas não interferem nas suas interações escolares, revelando índices de coesão grupal maioritariamente positivos. No entanto, o caminho ainda é longo e espera-se que sejam desenvolvidos mais estudos a cerca desta temática, nomeadamente ouvindo outras perspetivas e conceções de outros possíveis agentes colaborativos.
The main goal of this study, entitled "Children's voice: conceptions, attitudes and feelings towards diversity" is to contribute to clarify and enrich the knowledge of children's perceptions and attitudes towards inclusive education. To meet this objective, this research work was based on a qualitative approach, where children's voices were heard in order to consider their opinions, feelings and perceptions, in order to move towards inclusion. The methodology used was a semi-structured interview, sociometric tests to analyze the preferences and rejections of students in the classes, and classroom observations to complement the information collected in the other instruments. After the analysis and interpretation of the results, we concluded that the children perceived diversity as difficulties associated with learning and/or behavior, and that in general, these do not interfere with their school interactions, revealing mostly positive indexes of group cohesion. However, there is still a long way to go and it is expected that further studies on this issue will be developed, namely listening to other perspectives and conceptions of other possible collaborative agents.
