Educação Inclusiva e Comportamento no Transtorno do Espectro Autista: Desafios e Estratégias de Intervenção para a Promoção do Desenvolvimento Escolar

Inclusive education aims to provide an accessible learning environment for all, including students with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). This study investigates the main challenges faced by schools in the inclusion of students with ASD and presents pedagogical and behavioral intervention strategies that promote their academic and social development. Among the challenges identified, difficulties in communication, socialization, and adaptation to school routines stand out. Inclusive pedagogical practices, such as the use of Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) and structured teaching, have proven to be effective in overcoming these barriers. In addition, the support of a multidisciplinary team, composed of psychologists, speech therapists, and occupational therapists, is essential to ensure that students with ASD receive the necessary support for their full academic and emotional development. This study reinforces the importance of ongoing teacher training and collaboration between schools, families, and health professionals in the inclusion process.
