Barriers and resources to learning and participation of inclusive students

This study aimed at investigating the quality of inclusive service offered to a student with visual impairment enrolled in a mainstream class through the identification of barriers and resources to learning and participation. Results showed that in the school routine of the student subject matter of this study there are inclusion and exclusion situations. The lack of accessibility-oriented curriculum adjustments leads to the exclusion of content, which is briefly conveyed to the student. Therefore, the school can be considered as having a low level of inclusion. Although the student seems to socialize with others, her learning process is being partially neglected.
