Resumen
COELHO, Cristina Lúcia Maia y BASTOS, Claudio Lyra. Spatial cognition and psychopedagogical interventions in the context of inclusion. Rev. Port. de Educação [online]. 2016, vol.29, n.1, pp.27-49. ISSN 0871-9187. https://doi.org/10.21814/rpe.8453.
Over time, intellectual developmental disability (IDD) suffered changes concerning its concept, analysis and practice, moving away from a medical-psychological paradigm to include an educational focus. Within the context of inclusive education, the aim of this study is to analyze the impact of interventions based on interactive assessment with IDD students - using computer programs and practical tasks, as building scale models - in the potential stimulation of cognitive development, specifically in the visuospatial and logical dimensions. This text notes that the cognitive potential of students can be manifested through mediated interventions, with emphasis on metacognitive, affective and interactional processes. Stressing possibilities of expression for cognitive resources, such as spatial functions - in both two-dimensional and three-dimensional levels -, it was possible to develop the students' potential of abstraction and symbolization. Technological resources of contemporary culture - such as Google Street View - demonstrated to be effective as facilitating learning tools for students with intellectual disabilities.
