Resumen
The present investigation, centered in the case study presents the situation of an individual with
multiple disabilities, associated to visual, and motor skills disabilities. In this research, the
student profile is highlighted, the educational support and an individual centered planning; all
this analysis is approached within the perspective of functional evaluation. According to
Barriga (2006) the functional educational evaluation is an innovative strategy that allows to
analyze
The educational situation of the individual, helping to recognize the student environment in a
global manner, seeking strategies to improve the educational processes. (Barriga, 2006).
The investigation considers that ignoring the educational situation of the students and the lack
of teacher training may be affecting the participation of disabled people in the school.
For this study it’s been used qualitative research, with descriptive and ethnographic scope,
which allowed to obtain the most valuable information from a multidisciplinary team, formed
by nine participants: seven professionals and direct family, having as fundamental base the
student within a natural environment. By means of interviews, mapping, individual centered
planning and PIAR files, it’s been gathered information that allows to characterize the
educational situation of the individual and the construction of techniques that will be used in an
individual centered planning. Within the principal findings it’s been identified that an accurate
educational diagnosis works as a starting point in order to develop strategies and techniques
oriented to enhance the capabilities and strength points of the child; constituting a challenge for
the teachers searching for innovative and appealing methodologies that willhelp the individual
in a holistic manner
