Autoetnografia da trajetória acadêmica de formação docente de um professor de Educação física dentro do espectro autista

Abstract

This work aims to present fragments of my journey as an autistic student in the undergraduate Physical Education program at the Federal University of Minas Gerais. The methodology used was the production of an Autoethnography, in which I revisited some of my memories to facilitate reflections on the process of inclusive education in higher education. The expectation is that this investigation can broaden the perspectives of professors and students in higher education on autism, promoting a better understanding of the differences in the teaching and learning process that constitute the universe of people with Autism Spectrum Disorder. In this way, it aims to contribute to the expansion of possibilities for ensuring the exercise of the rights of autistic people in the university context. In conclusion, I observe the importance of the Internship carried out at the Pedagogical Center in my teacher training process, which enabled the production of a video to also help raise awareness among teachers and schools about inclusive education.
