The research Project entitled “The Supervised Internship in the Language
Course - Libras/Portuguese Language at the Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte:
What do Deaf students say?” has the general objective of analyzing aspects related to
the processes of learning to teach during the Supervised Internship of the Letters:
Libras/Portuguese Language course at UFRN. The small amount of publications in the
area on Supervised Internship with deaf students interferes with the possibility of these
students to understand and deepen the level of awareness in relation to the chosen
profession, and consequently affects the identity construction of the student as a
Professional and as a future teacher of Basic Education (GARCIA, 2012). Our specific
objectives Will be: To identify the expectations and difficulties of the students
regarding their work in the internship Field; analyze the processes of learning to teach
during the Supervised Internship based on the narratives of the deaf; to create a
bilingual technological product that allows deaf students to receive guidance on
Supervised Internship in Libras. It is a research with a qualitativa approach, with an
interpretative paradigm, which will be carried out through semi-structured interviews
through face-to-face meetings with distancing and respecting all the safety standards
recommended by the health authorities. Deaf students Will receive all information
through the Free and Informed Consent Term (TCLE) in Brazilian Sign Language
(Libras) about the aforementioned research and, based on their narratives, outline the
necessary means to meet the objectives of our work. We hope that the analyzes of the
collected data can point to ways for the production of a bilingual technological material
to contribute to the improvement of the learning processes of deaf students in higher
education, specifically in the Graduation Course in Languages-Libras/Portuguese
Language.
