This master work with focus in mathematics education is linked with the Graduate Education Program at Center of Education at Federal University of Espírito Santo. Our study took place in 2011 in a state public school from the city of Vitoria, ES. Our research of qualitative nature investigates the possibilities of mathematics learning in a regular 3rd year secondary class having also students with visual deficiency. We have tried to answer the question: What possibilities of mathematics learning do happen in a 3rd year class of secondary school that has 4 students with visual deficiency when it incorporates a practice of solving and posing problems and incentives interaction among students? We have used Vygotsky’s ideas to analyze interactions in the learning process. The perspectives from Polya, Santos and Santos-Wagner have guided us to interpret students’ mathematics learning in tasks of problem solving and problem posing. We have developed mathematics activities from equations from 1st and 2nd grade, linear systems, trigonometry and probabilities based on the questions proposed by Pitombeira (2008). We have collected data through questionnaires, mathematics tasks and workshops. In the analysis from these students’ tasks we have found evidences of changes in their studies habits outside school. We have noticed the development of student autonomy by searching new mathematics learning and strategies to solve and pose problems. We have also identified major interaction between teacher/students and among students with visual deficiency and the others. Our work has showed that it is possible to include all the youth students of secondary school in the process of mathematics learning. We do hope that this work offers inspiration to other teachers to develop pedagogical practices that try to assure participation and learning of all students in their classes. We also dream that teachers will be inspired by this research to consider peculiarities, particularities and skills of all the involved in the process of mathematics teaching and learning.
