THE INFLUENCE OF THE FAMILY LANGUAGE BARRIER ON THE EDUCATION OF DEAF STUDENTS: A BRIEF ANALYSIS FROM THE PERSPECTIVE OF VYGOTSKY'S HISTORICAL-CULTURAL PSYCHOLOGY

Abstract

This study briefly analyzes the influence of the family language barrier on the education of the deaf, based on authors such as: Vygotsky; Quadros and Karnopp; Sacks; L. The research, of a qualitative and bibliographic nature, highlights the importance of Libras, social mediation and family inclusion to overcome educational challenges and promote equity. We conclude that overcoming the educational barriers faced by deaf students requires public policies, continuing teacher training and the appreciation of Libras, ensuring an inclusive and equitable education that respects their linguistic and cultural identity.
