This research investigates the application of the TiX Literacy Educational Program in inclusive educational practices with students with disabilities, in the school environment. The research is carried out in a Municipal School in Vitória-ES. The program offers educational platforms and an intelligent assistive keyboard, replacing the conventional keyboard and mouse. The specific objectives consist of: analyzing the mediation of Assistive Technology with the inclusive curriculum; discuss the importance of inclusion and the role of Assistive Technology in the educational process; carry out training with TiX Line products and platforms, which will allow the practical dissemination of this knowledge. As a theoretical reference, the concepts idealized by Vygotsky are explored, when he addresses the theory of mediation, its symbols, signs and meanings, in addition to the foundations of defectology, and other contributions within the scope of historical-cultural theory for pedagogical work with students with disability, as well as other authors relevant to the topic. As a methodology, bibliographical and documentary research and a case study based on participant observation are used. The aim is to use field diaries, interviews, direct observations and other techniques with teachers as data production instruments, in order to provide a broad view of the case. As a result, it is expected that this research will contribute to the field of Assistive Technology in inclusive Special Education, paving paths that involve the use of TiX Letramento.
