Individualized Educational Plan: implementation and influence on collaborative work for the inclusion of students with autism

ABSTRACT

The Individualized Educational Plan is important in the inclusion of students with Autism Spectrum Disorder because it leads the pedagogical practice of teachers towards the educational needs of these students, from collaborative work with parents and a multidisciplinary team. This study sought to describe, from a case study, the implementation of the Individualized Educational Plan in the elaboration phase and verify its influence on the collaborative work of the school team in an elementary school. The school team answered a questionnaire about collaborative work before and after four months of the Individualized Educational Plan elaboration for a student with autism. The results showed improvement in each dimension of the school team's collaborative work. The potential of Individualized Educational Plan for greater teacher involvement around common goals for the learning of students with Autism Spectrum Disorder through collaborative work are discussed.
